About this event
Explore Jodo, the samurai short-staff discipline developed to defend against sword attacks, through training focused on timing, precision, control, and movement. The seminar is open to beginners and experienced martial artists, with no prior experience or special equipment required. Adults and teens are welcome, and training equipment is provided. Instruction comes from teachers in the lineage of Otofuji Ichizo sensei, led by Tom Groendal sensei of Hoshu Dojo. A bonus Daito Ryu grappling session may be added, but it is not yet confirmed. A weekend pass costs $75 and covers all scheduled classes.
