Why Anyone Can Practice Iaido

Think iaido is cool?

Scared you’re too clumsy to do it?

Iaido might also seem like it’s for young, fit, skilled individuals, but that’s not the truth. Just like with any new activity, when you begin iaido, you aren’t immediately going to be good at it. Don’t let that discourage you. Even your skilled dojomates and sensei had to start from square one! If you feel like you’re too clumsy to practice iaido, just give it some time. You won’t hurt anyone or yourself with a bokken and iaido’s precise movements will teach you focus and control. Iaido is also great for older people and non-athletes because it involves relatively slow movements that don’t challenge the cardiovascular system as much as other martial arts.
