Default Iaido Group Looking for a Host

Hey guys. I know this may not be your thing, but I have a friend who is an Iaido instructor and a really great guy. I don't train with him regularly, but I did a couple of times and he's an awesome, humble person with absolutely no ego whatsoever. I have no problem personally vouching for his quality as a person and a teacher. The dojo that hosts his classes is closing next month, and they're looking for a place in Northern Virginia to train maybe two or three times a week. They'd pay rent for the floorspace, and he's personally shown some interest in looking at some of the Filipino blade arts out of a scholarly interest. He does not view what he does as a self-defense art, but rather as a traditional method of moving meditation, so there'd be absolutely no competition for student base with reality based or MMA type schools. In a Japanese school, I believe he'd make a very good addition to the curriculum. If any of you know a place that might host this small, dedicated, honest group of students and their instructor, please post or PM me with some contact information. Even if you just know of someone he could personally call and talk to, I'd like ot be able to hook him up with a place to train.

Thanks in advance.

Mike B

I do too. They're a really great group. It's the one I didn't end up staying with when I was looking for Iaido; the Eishin-Ryu school I mentioned. It would be a real loss if they didn't have any place to train. Really, really good guys.
