If a ninja is to adapt their behavior in order to blend into society, it only makes sense that a ninja must also be able to adapt their fighting style in order to match their foe. It is not the perfection of the form, but the effectiveness of the execution that matters. 🙏
Well said. The fighter must become their own. About time i heard someone say it. I trained 10 yrs in Ninpo at Genbukan org. Modern modification is encouraged but still you see many training/fighting the same way. Before Ninpo I trained Aiki-jujutsu/Kung-Fu and after basic training you start to train "your" individual fighting style. All the higher belts fought differently. You couldn't tell they were from the same Dojo. Because I didn't want to be told no no no like this, I never told any of my teachers in Ninpo I was combining the 2 for me, today for the situation. Now like you said I have a Ninpo art formed to me - for me.
Dear Sensei, my name is Alberto, I am a ninjutsu practitioner who lives and practices in Italy, I listened to your opinion regarding the teaching method of this wonderful martial art, and I must say that you are absolutely right. The majority of teachers in circulation teach forms and kata as if they were a point of arrival, without understanding that we no longer live in feudal Japan, but in the 21st century, but above all, as you say, the essence of the strategy taught by the ancient shinobi, or the ability to adapt to the circumstances and needs of situations. I greet you and wish you the best for you, for your students and for your Dojo.
I feel like many people just make the mistake trying to copy procedures of techniques, but what you need to do is understand and apply the principles. Technique always is exchangeable =)
I'm very fat tall and have no balance, but I be quick quiet and execute with flawless victory, but hurt 3 days later or damage something 1-3months.....my blood is honey lemonade now and every thing hurts me than them except my words
Ninja. Spirit. (Awareness) Instinct. (No Mind) Mind. Body. Observe. Analyze. Calculate. Adapt. Survive. Kill. Everything that a Ninja can use to suit their purpose to aid them in War can be adapted to their own arsenal. To me a Ninja is a Self Aware Weapon Incarnate in Spirit, in Mind and in Body. So there is a foundation for Ninja in terms of martial art, but even those foundations were manipulated and adapted from older styles and techniques. To me, to be a Ninja is awesome, inspirational, and highly fluid. Thank you for the video and insight.
As my Shidoshi has trained and shown me the ways or traditional and modernizing movement.. it makes sense when you’d want a power stance and when you need to move in a close knit circle. Much as if you were at a club and an incident occurs where traditional stances will land you more in trouble (because everyone is dancing and drinking you’ll accidentally bump into another group) than had you learned how to scale it down to shoulder length stepping.
I think this is very well said especially with regard to pressure testing and sparring. When Takamatsu sensei first started his training was extremely rough and it was very apparent what worked and what didn't!
Good point warfare is all ways changing spying alway change (Espionage) alway change and survival hojutsu the art of the gun alway change i field training in Togakure Ryu Ninjutsu and ninpo to be alway in shadow but work in open is new competed as will thumb up ninja to comen now shinobi no mono in modern time
Another good teaching from ancient texts is that a ninja does what it does always for an higher purpose and not personal gains, other wise he's just a tief. Hatsumi is a good example of what a ninja shouldn't be. He's only interested in fame and money
I completely agree with everything you've said about Bujinkan. I'm from Venezuela and I trained with them for 5 years, and it's true that everything is very traditional and there's no sparring or practice of that sort. Instead, you have to train in another style to at least be able to visualize if the techniques work or not. Bujinkan doesn't like to update, and often the internal masters (who mostly trained in other disciplines) don't help or do very little to encourage this type of combat training, all under the excuse of "Bujinkan is not about winning medals". But it's something they need to do to demonstrate their effectiveness in facing reality. All martial arts, whether it's Karate, Shorinji Kenpo, etc., have lethal strikes and have their own competitions... but sometimes Bujinkan has very absurd things or says very absurd things....
As with anything the more you do it, the better you get at it. just do not make sparring or kumite take up too much of your time. Technical skills and basics have to constantly be refined and trained.
Love the way you explain all this. I have my own shcool since 7 years now, Guerriers du Nord. I open it afher 6 years in Bujinkan and realize that I needed some sparring. So I went see many people to work sparring with kickboxer, boxer and mma guys. It is completrly necessary to have sparring experience to understand martial art.
DEAR Krista! I have watched your videos for many years. with workouts. Most of all, I was struck Your amazing mirror look and fire in your eyes! I studied Ninjitsu for 10 years when I was young. My Master is Boaz Yaffe, a student of Grandmaster Doron Navon. Thank you very much, Master Christa Jacobson! You are super!... And a very beautiful woman!
True words, thanks for the video. The english translation of the Bansenshukai has finally arrived and I am digging into it. Would have loved to have this possibilty 40 years ago.
I studied in the Bujinkan for years and eventually developed a distain for all of the politics and nonsense within it. This video reminds me of the original reason I loved this art in the first place. Thank you for this lesson
Most important thing I learned - Shodan is the beginning of learning. I agree - you must master basics, but you have to break and bend it to what is needed, as needed once you really start learning. In a real fight - adrenaline adds speed, and it's all shinken gata, not long togakure forms.
Nice! I think any martial art that represents itself as a self-defense art or warrior art, has to continue to evolve and modernize as we do. Everything changes, the clothing, environment, people's awareness and knowledge... So from a warrior's point of view, you might want to adapt techniques from your 'traditional' techniques as more people (as in potential enemies or aggressors) are aware of your traditional methods. Knowledge is power, especially if it's knowledge that your opponent does not possess.
For me Ninjutsu is basically a state of mind. Be open to learn. Also learn from Your enemy. Not only from martial arts. From many sources like philosophy, medicine... Makes You better fighter, better warrior, better person. Ninjutsu is for me the foundation to build up from and to learn.
I think what you say applies to any style and life itself. A martial art or style of combat is like a suit or suit of armour. The traditional suit must be adapted to the individual wearing it. Each suit will be slightly different for each person. It can be a balance of maintaining traditional fighting methods so that they are preserved, whilst adapting methods to make them functional and effective to the individual on today's streets. Many thanks for posting.
I trained under this style for a minute & agree that the mentality is still stuck in the 80’s..yet the curriculum is more for mma then ninjitsu..if your afraid to hit somebody stick to yoga..thank you soke
My Sensei in our first conversation said first and foremost, that My Budotaijutsu can never be your Budotaijutsu as much as Your Budotaijutsu will never be my Budotaijutsu.
thank you Sensei. For what i had observed, and figured out for myself, and was correct about the subjects you`ve explained in detail, but in contemporary language 'Arigato Sensei Sama"
I have always said that all techniques are exaggerated when they are taught and worked on. But when applied can and will change for the most part because every situation is different even in sparring. And when you have a health condition or if weapons come into play (Especially in bladed situations) the story changes. You should not take a UFC tool box to the street: a place that has no rules, no referee and no corner men. It's primarily why I remained a free stylist (although I respect everyone's wishes to represent a style, system or school of thought).
Wow! Anshu you and I could have long conversations lol I do not have my own school yet (it is my life long dream) but I have taught several times over the years and have always stressed learning the traditional techniques but also required my students to explore variations and even come up with their own variations. No 2 students are the same, what works for one my not work for another for many reasons. Its refreshing to hear another teacher doing this. Its one of the signs that one is in a good school.
Without tradition art is a flock without a shepherd. Without innovation it is a corpse." -Sir Winston Churchill We are all given tools, but in the end we make the product. Your art is your art. I'm a karateka, but Ninjutsu can be found in anything. Ninjutsu literally means the art of endurance and perseverance, from the word Nintai. It is simply learning to adapt.
Hallo. Very interessting Video. This was the reason why is stopped with the Karate Training after 6 years. Some Masters told that you make mistakes in your standing or Kicking, Handtechniques etc. But when you have problems with the back or knees, than you can not copy 100 % the technique like a other person. I stopped the training and was looking for a another way to learn martial art. Then i founded for me the open System from Minnesouta Kali Group here in Germany. That included Muay Thay, JKD, Kali etc without test. Later i started a Studie for Goshin Jutsu and now i am a Black Belt. I think that you must find your own way to use the techniques for you individual. Best wishes.
You have to change with the enemy and their tactics. Also, things like old 1700 lock picking is a useless skill and you need to know how to pick the locks in use today. Same with gun techniques, etc.
Totally agree with the need for adaptation, as that should be at the forefront of all concepts if any form of martial art. Constantly got into online debates with "experts" about only using "textbook forms" as a guideline on how to do things and then the individual needs to learn how to perform any technique in an effective and personal way. It is like nails to a chalkboard the way the OP says "ninjutsu" though "nin-jut-sue" vs "neen-jew-t-sue" lol
Hmm, I have met similar problems with members of the Craft and self-proclaimed Shamen. Hidebound and aloof they refuse to engage in modern life and present a natural science like a pantomime. Nothing short of self-humiliation (and sometimes not even then, there is always something/one else to blame) can awaken these individuals and their conditioned followers to the improvements/changes of situation or philosophy since the writing of their texts. Curious it is that the hallowed (rightfully so in most cases) writers of sacred texts agree and instruct that evolution and personal perspective are definite factors when interpreting from page to brain to practical doings. It is a pity that those 'strict' teachers have such great memories but so little imagination, life is change in all its aspects.
I used to see you on ebay back in the early 90s selling videos and heavy duty fishing treble hooks as "grappling hooks" and you want to talk about "stupid ninja"......wow
I do not usually respond to comments like this, but for you I am making an exception. (1) You clearly did not watch this video. The video is VERY PRO-Hatsumi and PRO-Taijutsu. If you watch the video you would know that. In fact the video was against sport martial arts like MMA, and very much supportive of the Traditional Japanese Martial Arts. (2) The E-bay items you are referencing were Japanese Antique hooks that I got at an Japanese antique auction. Many of the ninjutsu densho talk about using hooks from fishing/boating and when I purchased the antiques in a Japanese auction, they came as a lot of 10. So... some where larger, some were small, some were sold individually, some I made into small grappling hooks that we see described in the Ninpiden and Bansenshukai. However, all of the hooks were 100% Japanese antiques... So yes, I sell Japanese antiques, scrolls, densho, etc in my store, as well as Japanese antique farming tools, gardening tools, etc as well... (3) Thank you for keeping up with my work all these years. I am very appreciative that you enjoy my teachings. Please subscribe to the channel and keep up with more future uploads. Take care and be safe.
Personal View : I don't care what style, system or what ever someone studies. the only time something is "wrong" is if it didn't work. Any time something worked for you, it was right. This right vs wrong ideas is..... well wrong. I can say that because this way of thinking doesn't work for me, there fore it is wrong. I am an old guy and honestly I generally don't care much for change. But when it comes to combat change is needed in soooo many arts out there, just to get them to work in today's society. I trained Ninjitsu for a few years and it was made clear to me that their art of ninjitsu was traditional and designed to combat Japanese, Armored foes on a battlefield, not for today's street thugs. Their way wouldn't change and I didn't see a need to defend myself against armored, Japanese fighters living over 200 years ago, so I moved on.
When do spy's turn into Shinobi in historical Japan? Historically Shinobi are of the Samurai class they are one in the same. Ninja ? Is this a modern term invented in the nineteenth century? The closest English description to the word Shinobi is spy craft ? Historically the duties of Shinobi were to scout ahead of the vanguard similar to modern day military scouting . There is no confirmed evidence of a Shinobi assassinating anyone in Japanese recorded history, perhaps because Shinobi were Samurai . There is evidence of Samurai clans who specialised in Shinobi tactics but there is no evidence of Ninja clans who fought against the Samurai . A question what is Ninjutsu ? Is it spycraft mixed with Ken jitsu and jujitsu ? I am curious because any discipline ending in Do is a sport any discipline ending in itsu is a combat discipline used for warfare.
If one is learning coding, infiltration, data analysis, actual spying, intelligence/counter-intelligence, all that James Bond thing... then yes, that's ninjutsu. If one is not doing that but rather trying to escape a tight spot... that's ninpo. If one doesn't know the difference between one and the other, one needs to read more history books, and linguistics and get one's head out of the 80s-90s ninja boom. Also "ninjutsu" is a very loaded word. With that said, I agree completely about building atop the basics and adapting to modern times. Now in my training, I do taijutsu and jujutsu, but man how I hate that people assume that it's ninjutsu from the Bujinkan because they read "taijutsu". That organization gives true martial arts a bad name.
Imagine a student of the ninjutsu arts , fly's to Japan challenges all kendo schools and beat them all at their own game, of course not for money or fame.What will the excuse will be?🤔🤔😂
Excellent video. Right to the point on calling out the bullshit of ignorant and stupid ninja. I also like how you distinguished the difference between a ninja and ninjutsu.
I have trained in Ninjitsu under Professor Ronald Duncan for many years and I am so impressed with you and what you teach. I have been saying that about certain peoples (no names mentioned) teaching and training for years. I loved what you said and teach. Blessings to you my Shinobi Sister and keep up the good work!!!
If you want to learn something effective and quickly. Learn judo, BJJ. Muay tai. Traditional boxing I assure you they train one way all the time because it works.. And if you're worrying it doesn't today. Buy a gun. Ninja use weapons and are weapon experts. Don't try hand to hand with an art made for swords, spears, knifes, ropes, rocks. Throw some dirt in the eyes. Ninja doesn't care. And doesn't matter how big you are or how fast. Dodge a bullet. Modern ninja use guns.
Exactly why I no longer do nor desire to continue the bujinkan tradition. Good as those techniques are, failure to adapt to a world more aware of MMA and FMA disciplines will just get your ass whooped out there.

Is it wise to take what is useful to you and throw that which is useless to one's self
Meaning keep what works and do ,away with what doesn't work for a individual

Totally agree with the need for adaptation, as that should be at the forefront of all concepts if any form of martial art.
Constantly got into online debates with "experts" about only using "textbook forms" as a guideline on how to do things and then the individual needs to learn how to perform any technique in an effective and personal way.
It is like nails to a chalkboard the way the OP says "ninjutsu" though "nin-jut-sue" vs "neen-jew-t-sue" lol
Hmm, I have met similar problems with members of the Craft and self-proclaimed Shamen. Hidebound and aloof they refuse to engage in modern life and present a natural science like a pantomime. Nothing short of self-humiliation (and sometimes not even then, there is always something/one else to blame) can awaken these individuals and their conditioned followers to the improvements/changes of situation or philosophy since the writing of their texts.

I believe we adapt to the way we are treated
Im impressed with your videos and what you have to say.some say ninjitsu no longer exist but i don't believe that.

I wish to bring SOKE Anshu n her Ninjutsu to India very soon.😅
Join the organization, start training and have me out! Love to travel for seminars!
🙏🏻😊
I saw a resent RUclips video of of a well known teacher saying to chew on bricks to train your teeth. My dentist does not recommend this.
Do you have any ninja uniforms for sale, I'm a fellow student
When do spy's turn into Shinobi in historical Japan? Historically Shinobi are of the Samurai class they are one in the same. Ninja ? Is this a modern term invented in the nineteenth century? The closest English description to the word Shinobi is spy craft ? Historically the duties of Shinobi were to scout ahead of the vanguard similar to modern day military scouting . There is no confirmed evidence of a Shinobi assassinating anyone in Japanese recorded history, perhaps because Shinobi were Samurai . There is evidence of Samurai clans who specialised in Shinobi tactics but there is no evidence of Ninja clans who fought against the Samurai . A question what is Ninjutsu ? Is it spycraft mixed with Ken jitsu and jujitsu ? I am curious because any discipline ending in Do is a sport any discipline ending in itsu is a combat discipline used for warfare.
If one is learning coding, infiltration, data analysis, actual spying, intelligence/counter-intelligence, all that James Bond thing... then yes, that's ninjutsu. If one is not doing that but rather trying to escape a tight spot... that's ninpo. If one doesn't know the difference between one and the other, one needs to read more history books, and linguistics and get one's head out of the 80s-90s ninja boom. Also "ninjutsu" is a very loaded word.
With that said, I agree completely about building atop the basics and adapting to modern times. Now in my training, I do taijutsu and jujutsu, but man how I hate that people assume that it's ninjutsu from the Bujinkan because they read "taijutsu". That organization gives true martial arts a bad name.
Lost everything in the last year
Hoping to regain my tea cup from the bodu du kai
Imagine a student of the ninjutsu arts , fly's to Japan challenges all kendo schools and beat them all at their own game, of course not for money or fame.What will the excuse will be?🤔🤔😂
What will the Japanese people say about ninjutsu then?✌️🙏
Excellent video. Right to the point on calling out the bullshit of ignorant and stupid ninja. I also like how you distinguished the difference between a ninja and ninjutsu.
Why is ninja illegal in the United States
It’s not…
I have trained in Ninjitsu under Professor Ronald Duncan for many years and I am so impressed with you and what you teach. I have been saying that about certain peoples (no names mentioned) teaching and training for years. I loved what you said and teach. Blessings to you my Shinobi Sister and keep up the good work!!!
As always, Thank you sensei for your knowledge and wisdom. 🙏
If you want to learn something effective and quickly. Learn judo, BJJ. Muay tai. Traditional boxing
I assure you they train one way all the time because it works..
And if you're worrying it doesn't today. Buy a gun.
Ninja use weapons and are weapon experts. Don't try hand to hand with an art made for swords, spears, knifes, ropes, rocks.
Throw some dirt in the eyes.
Ninja doesn't care.
And doesn't matter how big you are or how fast. Dodge a bullet.
Modern ninja use guns.
Ať žije amerika :-D
❤️❤️❤️🌸
Exactly why I no longer do nor desire to continue the bujinkan tradition. Good as those techniques are, failure to adapt to a world more aware of MMA and FMA disciplines will just get your ass whooped out there.
Thank you finally TRUTH!!! 🥷🥷🥷🥷🥷
I bet she identifies as a female…
I do…
I thought there was no historical evidence that there was a ninja martial art?😢
Very good! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🖒
Thank you very much
