Tenugui by Chiho [智烽]: Shinnen

In collaboration with renowned calligrapher Chiho [智烽], we are proud to be the first international Bogu shop to offer her work to Kendoka outside of Japan. 

This Tenugui features the phrase Shinnen (心燃)—literally meaning “burning spirit” or “burning heart.” It represents the inner passion, intensity, and unwavering drive that define one’s Keiko and approach to Kendo. The Tenugui is a powerful reminder to train with purpose and spirit. 

The calligraphy for this Tenugui is handwritten by hand by Chiho [智烽],  a renowned calligrapher in the Kendo world from Tsukuba University. Chiho's work can be seen on the Zekken and Tenugui of some Japan's national team members and most esteemed Sensei in the Kendo community.
