Flashing Steel: Mastering Eishin-Ryu Swordsmanship

by Masayuk Shimabukuro

Flashing Steel: Mastering Eishin-Ryu Swordsmanship Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

This book is much more than an introductory guide to Muso Jikiden Eishin-Ryu Iaijutsu. It manages to emphasize a melding of the Eastern philosophy and the technique of the art, in a marvelously eloquent yet concise manner. Flashing Steel describes and pictures forty-two kata (formal training patterns) which govern this system, with ten partner exercises applying iadid principles in realistic attack and defense systems. These kata are also widely practiced by students of kendo, aikido, and other martial arts which use swordsmanship.
