Sensei Michael held an Iai-Jutsu Course at the Academy on Saturday 20th January.

BJJAGB members from all round the UK attended the course and were instructed on the following areas of Sword practice.

Tying of the Hakama & Etiquette

Torei – Presentation and wearing the sword

Nukitsuke – Drawing, Kiritsuke – Cutting, Chiburi – Shaking off blood, Noto – Returning the Sword to the Saya

Happo no Kamae (Stances) & Happo no Giri (Cutting)

Sensei Michael then demonstrated all 12 elements of the Seitei Iai Kata, then the kneeling sections of the Kata were taught to and then practiced by the group

Datto – Depresentation of the Sword

Sensei Michael has received great feedback from all attendees and we hope you will join us on our next course which is Okinawan Sai on Saturday 21st April
