Members of our Kendo group traveled to South Dakota last weekend for the Tournament of Blades. It was a good opportunity for competition and referee training. Thank you Sioux Falls Sword Academy and Dynamic Martial Arts of Sioux Falls.
Ipponme-mai, the first Iaido form we teach. It’s a good benchmark for progress. Here, a few years into the kyu ranks laying foundation for the journey into our koryu kata.
No Kendo class tomorrow, due to the South Dakota tournament.
Iaido class will start as usual and will run a bit later for extra practice time.
No classes this Saturday. Happy USA 250! 🇺🇸🎆

Iaido teaches many things through the drawing, wielding and resheathing of the katana. Mental focus, agility and situational awareness are some of its many benefits.
OKIK provides authentic instruction in Seitei Iaido and Muso Shinden-ryu. Our Iaido class is Saturday mornings from 9:30 a.m. - 11:00 a.m. at Camelot Community Center.
Iaido just might be a journey waiting for you. Message us to learn more.
