I had the privilege to train with Sagawa sensei in a stage in Andorra. Too great for word. Dômo arigatô sensei! RIP

There are many people on youtube who post nothing but negative comments on various martial arts videos, but show no skill of their own other than using google to look up martial arts terms that make them seem knowledgeable. Are you one of them, Michael? I notice that you have no videos on your own channel showing your skill. It's possible I missed them, though. I did notice you had kendo videos. I hope you don't think kendo is a good representation of "swordsmanship". Kendo is a sport that requires much skill, but is not realistic swordsmanship. Most people I know who study Iaido also study kenjutsu. Iaido teaches the techniques, kenjutsu teaches the "bunki" (actually, it's bunkai, but I'll let that slide as a typo).

Seitei Iaido is not, first and foremost, meant for practical purposes. Whatever, you argue, my friend, it is pointless. Zen, technique, control, aesthetics, and common grounds from which many other Japanese swordsmans of other styles can relate to one another - these are the reason why Seitei is practiced. And, for kendo, seitei was created in order to give kendoka a feel for a more traditional and less sport competitive sword art. So yes, Seitei is definitely meant to enhance the Kendo experience.

going around comparing martial arts is the same as comparing bananas to apple. it is simple though, whoever finds iaido not so exciting, do and do some Kendo, do some Kenjitsu. iaido is the art of drawing the Iaito(sword) and not the art of the ´badass´. There s no much to diccuss, when we accept and respect.

Seitei Gata Kata are Kendo adaptations of Iaido and so modified for the benefit of the Kendo Federation!

Bakufu issues were not resolved until after 1603, Iaido became curricula after 1540s yet intrigues did continue. Why did Mugai & Hokie Ryu faction? If you question others be prepared to argue your convictions not myths!

If you follow the bunki here you will never see. "The Buddha hung out mutton, but he only sold dog meat".

Post Script; I respect Muso Ryu but if you stuck to these choreographed rituals and gotten into any one of these situations they would get you killed. The true bunki are much much deeper!

These static frog on a Lilly pad ritual interpretations are grossly naive and reflect the old saying learning swordsmanship by mere kata is like learning how to swim on dry land!
