Master Takeda and Iai-Mugairyu
Master Takeda Hougyoku is the head of the International Iaido Organization Hougyoku-kai. The largest mugairyu organization, and practices the purest, most traditionally faithful form of Mugairyu. He is recognized globally having received accolades from the Order of the Scottish Samurai and appeared in a promotion video given by Tokyo at an international convention.
You need years of experience practicing Iai before you will be able to safely wield a real sword. The use of a real katana by an inexperienced swordsman presents both the risk of injury to yourself and the participants around you and the risk of bending or damaging the sword.
Even if you have insurance, it is impossible to erase the damage of any accident that may occur. Therefore, to prevent any accidents and provide peace of mind for everyone – you, the other participants, the teachers, etc. involved, we will only use mock katana in this experience.

5.00It was a very nice experience. The instructors present were very welcoming, professional, with a real desire to make known their martial art and pass on their passion. The great master Hogyoku Takeda was present, and I had the honor of seeing him perform a kata. A strong moment, very martial, full of mastery and tradition. As a Kyokushin karate practitioner and instructor, I was particularly pleased with this introduction to iaïdō. The experience gave me a real desire to continue this practice and deepen this Japanese swordsmanship. I highly recommend to anyone interested in traditional Japanese martial arts. Osu Osu
