一般社団法人 錬信会
RENSHIN KAI association
当会は、古武道の流派のひとつ居合道を通して、人間修練の場とするべく
故・麻田信治十段範士が、昭和４５年堺市に、錬信館道場を開設され、
無双直伝英信流の指導にあたられました。
昭和５０年には、会の名称を錬信会と改め、日本各地だけでなく広く海外にも
指導の場をひろげられ、多数の門下生の育成にあたってこられました。
麻田師範は、平成１０年、志半ばにして世を去さられましたが、
多くの弟子たちが意志を引き継いで現在も指導にあたっています。
平成20年には、法人資格を収得し、「一般社団法人 錬信会」として
より発展した活動を行っています。
Our association was founded in 1970 (45th Showa) in Sakai city, Osaka with the aim of creating a place where people could discipline themselves through Iaido; one of old budo (Japanese martial arts) schools, by the late Shinji Aasada (Tenth Hanshi – the highest ranked). He opened Renshin-Kan Do-Jo (traning hall) and taught Muso Jikiden Eishin Ryu (無双直伝英信流).
By the 1975, it was renamed as “Renshin-kai”（錬信会）and had expanded its active areas into many places not only all over Japan but also overseas, and many young disciples were taught.
Although the master Asada passed away in 1998 (10th Heisei) before he fulfilled his ambition, we have taken over his will and have continued up to now.
In 2008, Renshin-kai was incorporated as “Renshin-kai association（一般社団法人 錬信会）” and since then, our activities have been developing more and more.
「仲良く楽しく真剣に」
Get along, Enjoy and Act seriously.
「居合の極意は鞘の内」
The innermost secret of Iai is in the sheathed.
「居合とは
人に斬られず 人斬らず
己を責めて 平らかの道」
This is what Iai is all about:
Neither to be cut nor cut someone,
Blame yourself and see the way evenly.
