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.

During our honeymoon, my husband and I spent an afternoon at the Mugai Ryu Iaido dojo and it was unforgettable! The instructors were kind, patient, and made us feel part of something truly special. Getting to handle a samurai sword was the perfect mix of history, culture, and adventure.
Amazing learning experience and history of the dojo. Would recommend to anyone

We had a wonderful time learning the techniques of swinging a samurai sword. Dressed up in authentic clothing with real swords that thankfully was not razor sharp. We also experienced the master showing us his skills which was very impressive. A truly Japanese moment and a memory for life. Highly recommend anyone to take part in this experience.
Best experience in Japan hands down!
