JAPANESE MARTIAL ARTS

AIKIDO
合気道

Learning the martial art of Aikido means learning about oneself, increasing one’s self awareness and awareness of others. 
To perform effective Aikido we learn to move from our centre, and blend with the attacker’s movement rather than trying to block it. Rather than strength, timing and the power of movement makes aikido techniques effective. 

KATORI SHINTO RYU
香取神道流

Katori Shinto Ryu, classical Japanese martial arts was designated as an intangible cultural property in Japan. Included in its martial curriculum: iaijutsu, kenjutsu, bojutsu, naginatajutsu, jujutsu, shurikenjutsu, ninjutsu, sojutsu, senjutsu (tactics), and chikujojutsu (field fortification art). Correct posture and balance opens the way for concentrated energy of mind and body to focus on one specific goal, excluding all extraneous thoughts. 

JODO
杖道

Jodo is a Japanese martial art of the stick (JO). Jodo training consists of three main areas of focus: 
• Tandoku dosa – solo practice of basic techniques with the jo
• Sotai dosa – paired practice of basic techniques with the jo against the sword 
• Kata – paired forms of Jo usually against the sword.
More advanced students may learn the classical style (koryu) of Shindo Muso Ryu Jojutsu.  


IAIDO
居合道

Iaido pronounced “ee-eye-doh” and Iai Jutsu are primarily concerned with the drawing of the sword (batto) and the dispatching of the enemy in a clear and decisive manner.In modern times the use of the sword is now defunct. As students of the art, we invest many years of training with the aim of perfecting our techniques, when in reality this goal is unrealistic as we will never be perfect. This is where the challenge and enjoyment of the art is sought – with training it is possible to slowly polish away the rough exterior to reveal the simple beauty of the art and ones self.  

A dojo is a miniature cosmos where we make contact with ourselves – 
our fears, anxieties, reactions and habits. 
Nothing is impossible to a willing mind.
