These practical techniques can be applied in everyday life and are sure to greatly change your worldview.

The instruction will be provided by the Guinness World Record-holding modern samurai, Isao Machii himself, and his top disciples. 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.
