The Nishi Kaigan Iaido dojo had the privilege to host Hinago Sakai Sensei, who began his studies of Eishin-ryu Iaido under Kono Soke and Fukui Torao Soke as a child and then became a life long Student of Esaka Seigan Sensei. This extraordinary man has agreed to lead our practice into the future and return to teach a seminar in 2025.

Iaido is the Japanese martial of drawing the katana as practiced by the samurai. Athough there are many schools of Iaido, Eishin-ryu is one of the oldest being approximately 450 years old.
