Thank you for your reply. On second thought I think you are right that seitei iai is different with regards to irimi. At least some seitei kata are about cutting faster than the opponent - not about getting out of the way. Unfortunately I don't know any other iai-styles. Can you tell me what it is like in for example Muso shinden ryo?

The Singapore camp is in a bad time for me, so not this time. However I think you should come to Denmark too if your business permits it. Otherwise we just have to come to you. Where exactly in Japan is Yokosuka? I was in Tokyo, kyoto, Hakone, Odawara, Yokohama and shiga province last year. It was fun.
 Hi ,Yokosuka is next city of Yokohama,where we proud that Yokosuka is for NAVY.
This city is so different from other cities in Japan.
We live in together with American.
I would like to visit Denmark soon to your city.

I believe Nishio sensei's Aikido is influenced by Arakiryu Iai.
Typical one is TsukaOsae.
This come from Tsukadome of ArakiRyu.
And most interesting movement is TateKen of ArakiRyu.
I could not find this philosophy in Musoshinden such as giving a way for opponent.

By the way last Sunday we visited Iwama.
