Can anyone recommend an Iaido group in Peterborough, Ontario?

Thank you.

Closest I can think of are either the JCCC Iaido Club (http://www.jccciaido.com/) in Toronto or Yanagi Dojo (http://www.iaido.ca/?page_id=2) in Belleville. JCCC is ZNKR affiliated, Ohmi Goyo S. 7th Dan Renshi is head instructor. I think Yanagi Dojo is ZNIR affiliated. Both are about 90 minutes from Peterborough though.

Oh, wait, the Canadian Iaido Association page linked above mentions a dojo in Oshawa, Oshawa Eishin Ryu Iaido Kai. Maybe an hour out of Peterborough.

Hope this helps,

Mike Chinadi <chinadi.mj@hotmail.com> is back in Peterborough and is one of the originals of CKF iaido, he started iai with Bill Mears down in Niagara and is one of my students now.

Jim Wilson <jimwilson@cogeco.ca> is also starting to teach in Peterborough and he trained at the JCCC.

OH forgot to plug the seminar coming up next weekend here in Guelph:

May 15-18 U. Guelph Spring Iaido/Jodo seminar http://seidokai.ca/iai.seminar.html
