Founded in 1984, Shidogakuin has become a respected institution in the field of Kendo and Iaido. Kendo, meaning "way of the sword," is a full-contact fencing art developed by the Samurai, while Iaido focuses on the precise techniques of drawing and cutting with a katana. Both martial arts are practiced with the aim of not only mastering physical skills but also cultivating mental discipline and character. Shidogakuin's dedicated instructors ensure that students, whether beginners or experienced practitioners, can progress at their own pace and benefit from the lifelong practice of these traditional Japanese arts.
