There are many parts of Japanese culture and tradition that cannot be understood through words alone. So is bushido, the way of samurai. You will experience Iaido, a dominant art of swordsmanship practised by samurai. If you can imagine a samurai swiftly and deftly slicing a roll of straw mat, that is Iaido. Born 6 centuries ago, Iaido is a traditional martial art favoured by samurai. After arriving at the Iaido dojo, change into a samurai attire with a sword. Many tend to assume it would be difficult to slip into the samurai frame of mind especially if you have grown up in a completely different culture. Surprisingly, however, once you are in a samurai attire with a sword and stand in the dojo keeping your back straight, you now understand - the world of bushido is accessible to everyone. Learn from a master what Iaido is about, flow of experience, and actually slash a cardboard with a sword; not a roll of straw mat for your safety. Now, observe solo demonstration by the master up close to marvel at his skill. You will receive a certificate of completion at the end. Through the entire process, you will sense courtesy and discipline are the values prized by samurai.
