Art of Iaijutsu

Muso Jikiden Eishin Ryu Iaijutsu 

Iaijutsu was the premier martial art of the samurai warriors of feudal Japan. Unlike kenjutsu, it begins with the sword still in its scabbard. An inner and outer calm is developed which is tremendously intimidating to the opponent. Sword skills require a philosophical training which permeates the entire life outside the dojo, building compassion and self-discipline.
