I am looking for an iai class that is not a mcdojo.

Welcome to e-budo Michael.
Sorry, but I am not aware of any legitimate Japanese sword arts in Naperville. The closest that I've heard of is Mugai ryu in Chicago. There are two different branches of Mugai ryu currently practicing in Chicago, and the instructors for either branch have excellent reputations. I recommend Brian Pettet at Shinjinkai since I know him and can vouch for his skills. The Japanese sword arts are not easily found, and most people have to travel a good ways to practice. My house is 43 miles from our dojo. :)
