Iaido and Jodo European Championship Portuguese national team

In the first week of December this year’s European Iaido and Jodo championships will take place in Swirtzland, and for the first time Portugal will field a Jodo team, fruit of the work done in the past years to promote the growth of the discipline in the country.

There has been a growth in the international participation of Portuguese Iaidoka and Jodoka and I hope that this tendency is maintained for years to come.
