This manual is a complete guide to this esoteric aspect of sword fighting. Written by a noted master; this volume describes the techniques and katas of Muso Shinden Ryu; one of Iaido's best-known schools. Muso Shinden Ryu was founded by the great master Hayashi Jinsuke Shigenobu in the 16th century. Since that time; a succession of masters have guided the progress of the school; often adding katas and modifying techniques as their experiences dictated. Illustrated with nearly 800 photographs; this book records many Iaido forms that thus far have only been orally transmitted. It documents the three styles of sword-drawing taught in the Muso Shinden Ryu system, Shoden (first tradition), Chuden (middle tradition) and Okuden (interior tradition); each of which is actually a complete art of sword-drawing in itself. In addition; the Sei Tei Kata (official forms) of the All-Japan Fencing Federation and the All-Japan Sword-Drawing Federation are described in detail. 6 x 9; 326 pages;.
