Interested in the Japanese art of sword? This seminar is for you. We will be exploriing the two main sword arts – Kendo and Iaido.

Kendo is the fast moving, high energy sport of fighting with bamboo swords and wearing body armour. It emphasizes quick movement, precise targeting and fast reflexes.

Iaido uses the wooden sword (bokken) or unsharpened metal sword and teaches the traditional drawiing, striking and sheathing of the sword. Katas (formalized routines) are taught in a spirit of relaxed focus and mental alertness.

No experience in martial arts is needed for this seminar – we will cover basic, intermediate and advanced moves and concepts.

Ages 12 and up. Participants can wear a karate uniform or sweats/shorts.
This seminar will be held at Samurai Martial Arts, 1512 Spencerport rd., Rochester

Wooden swords and other equipment is available for purchase or to use during the seminar.
