@snigglesthedestroyer Bujinkan is for any age. I started when I was 11, stopped for 7 years and now I'm back doing formal classes again. It's not age that matters in bujinkan, but rather perseverance. It also doesn't matter if you've studied another martial art. Take the things you learned and add whatever you find useful to your training ;) Also if your having trouble don't be afraid to ask the sensei or your sempai's for help.
It's a heavily advanced style too. And you REALLY learn how the body works from it and you use a lot of cool tricks. The most basic stuff in the style are black belt leveled stuff in other martial arts. At least in the place I am at.
Hakama feels more loose when kicking and especially if one is going to be acrobatic. For me, I find it to be much more comfortable than regular gi pants. It can help with subtlety of footwork too sometimes.
That was really funny, thank you!!! Do you guys take acting lessons or do you just watch a lot of old ninja videos?? Thanks again for the giggles :-D 5 stars!!!!
@SuperHefner L.A.R.P means Live Action Role Playing, basically you get a get a bunch of people together and do moch battles with foam swords or any theme really, never done it myself, saw it in a movie but i can't remember what it was called. Looks like it would only be fun on a large scale with lots of drugs.
Jumping and stuff is used when weapons are involved, not unarmed. It is highly effective outside of combat and when a sword or spear is involved. Say you drop a knife, you roll to it and catch it as you go into a roll and turn to face the opponent. It's a weapon thing and weapons ARE used in combat still, knives especially.
I want to go and train there!! In all the martial arts classes I've been to, it's been either rigorously, pointlessly dogmatic or overly lax. The Ninjutsu class I went to for a while had no syllabus. The result was that we never practiced anything enough to use it.
The Beginners use White belt -10th kyu Then you get to use Green (men) or Red (mostly used by konoichi)-9th to 1st Kyu And the last one is the Black belt -1st to 15th Dan. Aside from the belts you are also ranked with stars.
In some sport shop, they're not always easy to find and are kind of expensive, you can always look on e-bay or other internet shops and order.. you can find very good results sometimes ^^ that's one of my best options when I buy that kind of stuff, I live in mexico so it isn't that easy to look for it.. if you're in USA it should be better, if you're already practicing any martial art you could ask your teacher, they often know where
@properjujitsu were not bowing to a picture. The bow is a ritualistic act of beginning the training with respect to ourselves and to others. Why would we bow to a picture?
Hey, a question for any actual Bujinkan practitioners out there: How long does it usually take to go from white belt to whatever's next (The green belt, and the Kyu ranks, I think)?
My mother and grandmother taught me some form ninjutsu when I was four to ten... although little bit of the forms and movements I forgot since it's been 6 years. lol
@nicerebound depends on the "hit". you dont knife-hand each other in the throat, punch each other in the temple, attack the eyes and groin and bend fingers backwards when doing randori, right? because then you have maimed students, lawsuits, and an out-of-business school.
@flow1243 Much respect man, It's rare to find someone who will admit they're into larping, do you have a link to any vids of you and your crew displaying your radcore skills?
is it all just studied martial arts or do u also have some sparring and improvisated moves in ninjutsu-dojos? if yes, how much? im thinking about starting ninjutsu, pls tell me :)
i dont see how people can assume that because you dont use full force on your friends in the training hall that it will impact on the execution of techniques in reality, i train with the bujinkan and have had to use the techniques for real a few times, the softer training in the hall did not hinder my application of the techniques.
nice but its a bit too showy if you know what i mean? some if your chosen technques look like they were just thrown in this vidio just to show off our art but some things that are in this vid are compleatly impractical like spining that Bo behind your back, ninjutsu is about doing things as quickly as possible to help minimise danger to your self as much as possible and putting the bo behind your back just leaves you open to an attack, same with the high kicks hence why we dont do many of them
In ninjutsu, I've understanded that, you don't wear a belt till you're first dan.. Like till the level 10th you earn your first belt and it's the white one.. in karate the first belt you earn is also the white one but you earn it from the day you start doing karate, in ninjutsu it isn't like that.. you're first belt is like in karate a black belt.. so wearing a belt for ninjutsu has a lot of meaning ^^
it seems like in this particular dojo even though u might be 9th to 6th kyu, u still wear the white belt but with green stripes, then when u get to 5th kyu or so u get the green belt. i might be guessing wrong but anyways very good skills an cool videos. u guys are better than some black belts i see at the "nin-shit-su" schools
Maybe its because of its origin. Ninjas were normal people trying to defend themselves from abuse of great lords who used to have swords, therefore, main techniques are weapons defenses
@WMATRACY Im pretty sure you can find videos designed to promote nearly every style of martial arts on youtube, all for the purpose of enticing people to considering training, and i doubt anyone will find a dojo for any martial art that isn't run as a business. its all about the $.
If it was a picture of the original grandmaster. Or of the current grandmaster, Japanese are about respect. Might not be perfect for Ninjutsu but without those that came before and made the style what it is today, we wouldn't be doing it. That's when you bow.
I have a black belt once... I bought it from china town for 7 bucks :D but then I decided to get a gun instead. It seemed like the more lethal of the two.
@aa3gunner Just to be quite plain, martial arts are extremely unimportant in the military. They're a nice physical training tool, but armies spend 80% of their time training soldiers to march and shoot. For a soldier on the battlefield to actually have to resort to unarmed combat the situation must have gone immensely pear shaped. Consider - he has no rifle, no sidearm and no friends. What the hell's he been doing?
@8ringsofshaolin um sir this does work in real life. If you don't belive me then go up against a ninjutsu master whos been trainning for about 25 years and see how fast a you would get dispatched.
O_o that was the most awesome ninjutsu display i have ever seen in all my life...blow away......
This is the best i've seen of bujinkan so far! congrats
Oh goodness - this is almost unreal. I have NEVER seen a Bujinkan school as good as yours. I'm definately looking forward to training with you!
I agree. Sometimes being flashy creates the element of deterrence, which greatly assists in preventing fights from even starting.
Nice work from mukyu and ryu ranked practitioners :) Brings a tear to this jaded old eye... Gambatte!

You guys are wicked. Great work. Getting a bit old and fat now, but might look you up over here in Adelaide, Australia!!

there are only 2 color belts (but 9 degrees if not wrong) before black, white and green.

@AdmiralMustard whoops nevermind. Just saw the instructer in the video. Whats with the white belt with backs stripes though?
It is an awesome video!
i found a bujinkan ninjutsu school near where i live. i must join, its looks fun.
@BlackDragon425 is there any training on hitting the bag and sparring in bujinkan?
Wow, is that really the level of 9th-1st kyu? It looks amazing. Much higher level than where I train.
@BlackDragon425 well is it dangerous to use flour on eyes or is it just for a low amount how much long will you be blinded ? and does it hurt much =?
Did this video make anyone else call the nearest dojo and sign up for training?
This is by far my favorite art. What is the name of this song?
Hey i hear Air gear theme music
Very nice video!!!!!!
My mother and grandmother taught me some form ninjutsu when I was four to ten... although little bit of the forms and movements I forgot since it's been 6 years. lol
you make very good movies ^^
please you must tell me, what do they say at the very beginning, this is very important. thank you,
lol, i got a friend who is in a dojo in mexico, she is always talikng bout ninjutsu, it is sooo cool!
Yeah its a brilliant set of skills to learn :D
How do you get the hakama tight round your feet? Ive never seen them like that.
Awesome vid.
nice! were you at the aquafest this year?
@imperialpod So you train this for the purposse of never actually using it?...
@nicerebound depends on the "hit". you dont knife-hand each other in the throat, punch each other in the temple, attack the eyes and groin and bend fingers backwards when doing randori, right? because then you have maimed students, lawsuits, and an out-of-business school.
I wanna join!
@flow1243 Much respect man, It's rare to find someone who will admit they're into larping, do you have a link to any vids of you and your crew displaying your radcore skills?
it is good , beautiful tecniks
is it all just studied martial arts or do u also have some sparring and improvisated moves in ninjutsu-dojos? if yes, how much? im thinking about starting ninjutsu, pls tell me :)
i dont see how people can assume that because you dont use full force on your friends in the training hall that it will impact on the execution of techniques in reality, i train with the bujinkan and have had to use the techniques for real a few times, the softer training in the hall did not hinder my application of the techniques.
which ones are excessive? jumps? arent ninjas supposed to jump and do backflips?? im just asking i dont know about ninjutsu
nice but its a bit too showy if you know what i mean? some if your chosen technques look like they were just thrown in this vidio just to show off our art but some things that are in this vid are compleatly impractical like spining that Bo behind your back, ninjutsu is about doing things as quickly as possible to help minimise danger to your self as much as possible and putting the bo behind your back just leaves you open to an attack, same with the high kicks hence why we dont do many of them
Gostaria de saber o nome desta flexão de dedos ou ponho.
who is the magician among you
wow... i like to see white belt train intensively maybe someday ill go to your dojo and train to the limit *bow*
In ninjutsu, I've understanded that, you don't wear a belt till you're first dan.. Like till the level 10th you earn your first belt and it's the white one.. in karate the first belt you earn is also the white one but you earn it from the day you start doing karate, in ninjutsu it isn't like that.. you're first belt is like in karate a black belt.. so wearing a belt for ninjutsu has a lot of meaning ^^
This art is for anyone doesn't matter about age or size...Good day
it seems like in this particular dojo even though u might be 9th to 6th kyu, u still wear the white belt but with green stripes, then when u get to 5th kyu or so u get the green belt. i might be guessing wrong but anyways very good skills an cool videos. u guys are better than some black belts i see at the "nin-shit-su" schools
are there any ninjitsu schools in england
Does this dojo do any hard sparring?
White belt for beginers, then green belt for every kyu grade, then black belts for the dan grades
well, that sounds good to me :) ill try a lesson for sure
Music: Buddhist Cafe
1. Beautiful Life [sunshine mix]
I always post the music in the details --------->
Very nice!
I thought bujinkan budo taijutsu practitioners of shodan grade and higher wore black belts?
Maybe its because of its origin. Ninjas were normal people trying to defend themselves from abuse of great lords who used to have swords, therefore, main techniques are weapons defenses
@Mider999 the floor is covered in mats!
what is the name of this song?
im 16 and thinking of starting this is that an ok age to start?
Id Like to do this... im 18 years old, is it too late? :(
who thinks ninjutsu is the most awesome looking martial art?
Sensei Garner actually, and yes this is Josh. : )
im training it, and diference is from school to school, in some schools it is hell dificult and hard, but in other it is not
@WMATRACY Im pretty sure you can find videos designed to promote nearly every style of martial arts on youtube, all for the purpose of enticing people to considering training, and i doubt anyone will find a dojo for any martial art that isn't run as a business. its all about the $.
im part of the Tengu Shadows clan of Ely and Peterborough :) nyone wanna share theirs?
If it was a picture of the original grandmaster. Or of the current grandmaster, Japanese are about respect. Might not be perfect for Ninjutsu but without those that came before and made the style what it is today, we wouldn't be doing it. That's when you bow.
2:29-2:41 is awesome! especially tht last move he did
I love ninjutsu, but i live in mexico T.T and here we don't have ninjutsu schools :/
hmmm...sensei gardner or is this josh?
I have a black belt once... I bought it from china town for 7 bucks :D but then I decided to get a gun instead. It seemed like the more lethal of the two.
you are wrong.... 10 kyu is white belt and thats the first level, from 9 to 1 kyu its green for men and red for women... then you get your black belt
Yes
Uhh... when did this become a UFC/MMA discussion? This is a Ninjutsu video, so lets talk about Ninjutsu please.

Ah, so this is what happens when you train in Japan...
You become really effin' good!

Consider - he has no rifle, no sidearm and no friends. What the hell's he been doing?
why do you guys have so many non beginners wearing white belts?
@NOD1S Not at all. Go ahead, and train. In a few month you'll have learnd a few things already : )
@8ringsofshaolin um sir this does work in real life. If you don't belive me then go up against a ninjutsu master whos been trainning for about 25 years and see how fast a you would get dispatched.
