Hello, The International Swordfighting and Martial Arts Convention continues to
grow as we enter our 9th year of bringing together the finest instructors from
around the world!

The dates this year are July 31 – August 3rd, 2008. We are back to our regularly
scheduled time of year. Mark your calendar and schedule time off now!

Last year ISMAC moved to the Detroit area to make it easier to get to. We are
moving once again to make it even more convenient. We are very excited to
announce that ISMAC will be held at the Westin Detroit Metropolitan Airport
which is directly connected to the McNamara Terminal. This way you will be able
to fly in and just head to the hotel with no need for outside transportation.

If you thought the Marriott was a step up last year, wait till you see this!
And it will even be slightly cheaper (reservations must be made at least a month
in advance with the hotel). For images and services available go to

Food is convenient - Beyond the Screening Checkpoint, gives registered overnight
guests at The Westin Detroit Metro Airport access to the nearly 90 shops and
restaurants in the McNamara Terminal, after screening at the TSA security
checkpoint. More details can be found at

A list of attending instructors will be online soon. The exciting changes for
2008 will continue coming!
Sincerely,Jared Kirby
