I practice Kuniba Ryu Iaido and I see all the elements he shows here in the Iaido kata I run. I'm glad the I can see Kuniba Soke run this kata for myself. Thank you NE Budo

While I appreciate the mention, we do not turn anyone away at our dojo; I apologize if you were led to believe otherwise. That being said, we do feel that one should leave his prior training at the door when starting a new program. Which, I believe, is consistent with the best martial traditions.

wow, i was just about to ask do karate guys use swords until i scrolled down and seen what you type. I'am a ninjutsu practionair and i've studied mugai ryu iaido in chicago at the shinjinkai, dude that shit is badass, i remember when i first step into their dojo one of the seniors stated to me that shinobi wasn't welcome in their dojo. overall he was a good guy. everyone wanted to sparr me after class it was fun.

Well, he was a legitimately recognized 9th Dan in his lifetime, and was awarded 10th Dan posthumously. So I think he's qualified to perform the manuever.
