This plan, supervised by Isao Machii, will not only teach you the kata, but also teach you samurai martial arts that can be used in real combat. Rather than focusing on the kata, the focus is on how to actually use your body and move efficiently without exerting force. This is a rare opportunity to experience authentic samurai techniques and learn truly useful martial arts. After this experience, you will have a deeper understanding of the essence of the samurai who uses a Japanese sword, and you will be able to start on the path of martial arts with confidence. *Due to the guidance of the Agency for Cultural Affairs and the National Police Agency, this plan does not provide sword-cutting instruction to anyone other than disciples.

A part of the grounds of Tada Shrine, the birthplace of the Genji clan and a shrine with a thousand years of history, will be available for exclusive use! A prayer for good fortune will also be offered by the chief priest of Tada Shrine!

Tada Shrine, the birthplace of the Genji clan, is a prestigious shrine designated as a national historic site and home to important cultural properties. You can rent out the tranquil grounds and the Mandokoro-den hall exclusively to experience training in a completely private space with no other worshippers, where you can learn the spirit and techniques of the samurai. In this sacred area, steeped in a thousand years of history, you can calm your mind and experience real samurai culture. After training, you can enjoy a luxurious kaiseki meal while looking out at the beautiful garden. In addition, you can receive a prayer for good fortune from the chief priest in the worship hall, where many samurai prayed for victory in battle. After the prayer, you will also be given a lucky charm. We will provide you with a special experience just for you, where history, martial arts, nature, fine cuisine, and prayer come together.

Recommended for Aikido practitioners too! Iai and Kenjutsu are also the origins of Aikido.

Aikido has spread all over the world. At its core lies the principles of swordsmanship and iaido that its founder, Morihei Ueshiba, learned in his youth. The concept of the shift in center of gravity when drawing the sword and the "principle of the tip" have a great influence on the precision and power transmission of Aikido techniques. However, not all iaido and swordsmanship can convey its essence. Currently, Machii Isao is the only person who can correctly explain and practice the principles at the origin of Aikido. The real martial arts he teaches are filled with "how to place your mind" and "how to take time" that can be used in everyday life. How to interact with people, judgment, and the ability to respond to pressure - the skills of the samurai are also the power to enrich your life. If you want to experience real martial arts and the essence of Aikido, please take this opportunity to join Machii Isao's training. A new axis will be born in your life.
