Mina-san,

The United States Tamiya Ryu Iaijutsu organization is pleased to announce an opportunity to learn directly from Kazuo Tsumaki Genwa, the 15th Soke of Tamiya Ryu Iaijutsu, during an open seminar. This is an excellent chance to learn a Koryu sword art that until very recently was not taught outside of Japan. All experience levels are welcome, however you must be 18 years or older. Tamiya Ryu Iaijutsu is a 400 year old martial art focusing on the drawing, cutting, and re-sheathing of a katana. Modern day practice focuses on developing body, mind and a strong spirit. The seminar will cover the basic etiquette, and instruction on kata.

The seminar will be held: Sunday, July 17th at Groves High School in Birmingham, Michigan, from 1:00 pm - 4:00 p.m. Registration deadline is June 30th. Costs will be $60 if you currently own a safe, usable Bokuto (wooden sword), or $100 including a Bokuto. No Iaito, or live katana are allowed at this event.

If you are interested, please visit us at www.ustamiyaryu.org for registration.
