After visiting Japan's only iaido shrine dedicated to the founder of iaido, Shigenobu Hayashizaki Jinsuke, you will learn iaido etiquette and the basic form of iaido, “shohatto,” from a high rank iaido practitioner, and observe a “test cutting,” which is the art of cutting a tatami mat cylinder with a serious sword. This is a valuable experience to come into contact with techniques that have been handed down from generation to generation.
