Price Reduced: we will no longer be offering the Nami Ryu Iai Jutsu video on VHS. We still have a limited number in stock, by now while supplies last!

Nami ryu Iai jutsu, available in both DVD and VHS, demonstrates and explains the intricate and practical art of Iai Jutsu, the rapid tactical deployment of the sword when under duress. Secrets of balance, hidden movement, and energy transfer are explained and demonstrated. Solo kata, two person kata, and tameshigiri, using the techiques practiced in exactly the same manner as the aforementioned kata, are aspects of the art covered in this video. For the art to be valid the techniques that are practiced must actually work when the sword is used for its primary purpose of cutting. This video demonstrates a wide variety of cuts, from the draw, that show the evolution of the practical application of proper training. James Williams brings the knowledge and experience that he has gained in over four decades of training in the martial arts to this video. There are clips of this video at dojoofthefourwinds.com that can be viewed online. 40 minutes


Naginata - A Link to the Past
Naginata - A Link to the Past This second video on Naginata by Helen Nakano Sensei offers a glimpse of the naginata from feudal era to modern time. It takes us from the devestating military applications to intimate and controlled personnal development. "Like the bird it sings not because it has an answer-but because it has a song".
