We are the University of Tokyo Taido Club, which specializes in “Taido,” a type of martial arts characterized by three-dimensional attack and defense. We would like to introduce you to the fascinating world of Taido.
The Taido Club was established twenty years ago, which is relatively young for a club in the Athletic Foundation of The University of Tokyo. Despite its short history, we have won the national student competition multiple times, thanks to the efforts made by club members generation after generation. The club received the University of Tokyo President's Award in 2013 and 2018 and finally achieved an unprecedented feat of thirteen consecutive victories in the student competition last year.
