Flashing Steel: Mastering Eishin-Ryu Swordmanship Description

laijutsu was the premier martial art of the samurai warriors of feudal Japan.
Unlike kenjutsu (kendo) it begins with the sword still in its scabbard. An inner and outer calm is developed which is tremendously intimidating to the opponent. Sword skills require a philosophical training which permeates the entire life outside the dojo, building compassion and self-discipline.
Flashing Steel describes and pictures forty-two kata (formal training pat-terns) which govern this system, with ten partner exercises applying iaido principles in realistic attack and defense situations. These kata are also widely practiced by students of kendo, aikido, and other martial arts which use swordsmanship.
