Iaidō is the traditional Japanese art of drawing and cutting with the Japanese sword in one smooth and powerful movement.  It is a discipline of self-improvement in all aspects of body, mind, and spirit.  AiShinKai, a member dojo of the Pacific Northwest Kendo Federation, offers training in All Japan Kendo Federation Iai (Seitei Gata) and Muso Shinden Ryu Iaido.

Aiki-ken & Aiki-Jō: Arts of Peace

Martial skills need not be used to cause harm.  AiShin-ryu Aiki-ken and Aiki-Jo offer the viable alternative of using traditional sword and staff techniques to diffuse conflict, creating win-win scenarios for both attacker and defender.  At the root of these disciplines is a concrete method for developing the unity of body, mind, and spirit to realize our full potential power.
