In addition to Aikido, we also teach jodo, which is the art of using a short staff to defend against the sword.

The jodo we offer is the Seitei no Kata of the Shindo Muso Ryu, as standardized by the All Japan Kendo Association (ZKNR), which consists of 12 fundamental exercises (kihon) and twelve kata applications. For more information, see Karl Geis' website.

In order to enter jodo practice, you must be at least a yonkyu (green belt) in Aikido.
