Will Rolon, a freshman studying mechanical engineering, demonstrates a fencing drill Wednesday at the Recreation Center. Rolon is the vice president of the SIU Kendo club and was teaching new members the basics of kendo. ” The stances are different [than fencing] and so are the points,” Rolon said. “But, we try to be a lot more traditional with it, because it is a martial art.” The RSO’sfi rst practice will be at 6 p.m. Friday at the Recreation Center’s martial arts dojo.
