From Shoulder Injury to Kendo Team GB: Daniel Alvarado with our shoulder lead Nathan Choi



In this episode of LDN MEETS, LDN PHYSIO Shoulder Lead Nathan sits down with Daniel, a Team GB kendo athlete, to talk about his journey in kendo, the demands of competing internationally, and how shoulder rehabilitation at the clinic helped him return to training with more confidence.


Daniel shares what it takes to train and compete in kendo, the difference between training in the UK and Japan, the physical and mental demands of the sport, and how recurring shoulder instability started to affect his performance. We also cover how sport-specific shoulder rehab can help athletes rebuild trust in their body, improve confidence in overhead positions, and return to the movements their sport actually demands.


Daniel is currently preparing with the GB Kendo team for the European Championships. As kendo is self-funded, the team are raising money to support competitions, training camps, and international preparation.
