Classes and seminars provide Aikido, Jodo, and Iaido training and also offer experience and study of Japanese culture, language, Shinto and Buddhist philosophies, and nonviolent communication.
JODO
A traditional Japanese policing art (as opposed to a battlefield art) which focuses on the use of a four foot long staff. Jodo includes the study of swordsmanship, and a number of other traditional Japanese weapons.
IAIDO
The class focuses on learning how to draw and cut with the Japanese sword. The techniques stem from the classical school of Mugai Ryu Iai Hyodo and are taught with the aim of helping the student develop strong body posture and smooth and effortless movement, combined with a calm and focused mind.
