DaCosta Sensei´s IaiDojo 1-2009

DaCosta Sensei´s IaiDojo. This Dojo was done to be just for the IaiDo practice, but as time went by some Arts of Budo also went by the place : Kendo, Kyudo, Tenchi Tessen, Aikikai Aikido, Iwama Aikido, Karate-Do, Taichi, Gô, Origami and Bujinkan Ninjutsu. The Dojo is decorated with very old pieces, Kimono, Sumie, Katanas... some pieces are over 400 years old, all this to give the right ambience and proper vibration of a "Dojo". As I didn´t have a place to practice, for many years and I had to practice on the beach, in gardens and very often in squash courts... this Dojo is open to passing practicioners, so they have a proper place to practice, without any technical interference from the Dojo´s practicioners or from the Dojo´s technical board of Directors. It´s a life time dream that represents lots of sacrifice and Muga Mushin...IaiDo practice is possible all day long and every day of the week, no vacation, DaCosta Sensei is always present and available to help...(he is doing "time"...for IaiDo...) Dojo rules aplie !

Hi JARCHIE1973

You have a good cutting execution and it´s in harmony with your present innerself level and as life goes by you will enter other levels, that will allow you to become smother and enjoy fully this wonderful Art of IaiDo... I will send you a longer personal message, to give you some ideas of "how to"... for you to try...

Best regards

A.DaCosta
