Seishin Iaido
Iaido is a martial art of drawing and cutting, using the traditional Japanese Sword.
Hayashizaki (Jinsuke) Shigenobu is generally credited with establishing the influence and popularity of Iaido early in the sixteenth century. However, around a century before his birth, the dynamic art of iai-jutsu had been developed by Izasa Ianao, the founder of the Tensin Shoden Katori Shinto Ryu.
Seishin Iaido is affiliated with the Victorian Kendo Renmei and the Australian Kendo Renmei which is an affiliate of the International Kendo Federation.
