At this dojo (school) we study iaido (居合道 pronounced e-i-do). Popularly known as "the art of drawing the sword". These teachings have evolved from the warrior class known as samurai. Developed by Hayashizake Jinsuke Shigenobu in the late 16th Century after Japan was unified under the Shogun Tokugawa Ieyasu. The basic principle involves controlled, precise movements of drawing the sword from it's scabbard (saya), striking or cutting an opponent, removing blood from the blade (chuburi), and then replacing the sword in the scabbard (noto).
