Iaido - Iaido

Japanese: 居合道 - いあいどう
Iaido - Iaido
The moment the sword is drawn from its sheath, the outcome of the match is decided. Iai is the swordsman version of the Western "gunslinger." Iai-do is a martial art that inherits the "principle of the sword" of Iai, in which the movement at the moment the sword is drawn determines the outcome of the match, and does not have an opponent, but an "imaginary opponent."

Japanese:
刀を鞘から抜いた瞬間に勝負が決まる。西洋の「西部のガンマン」の剣術版が居合です。刀を抜く瞬間の動きこそが勝敗を決める居合の「剣の理法」を伝え継ぎ、相手がいるのではなく、「仮想敵」を相手とする武道であるのが居合道です。
