When protecting ourselves, our goals are not always clearly defined. We may not be in the correct state of mind to protect ourselves from an attack. The attacker, on the other hand, has clear motivations (e.g., anger, greed, ego). The attacker can confuse the defender and create inner conflict that can limit the defender’s ability to function. We need to learn to direct our minds and spirits to take charge of ourselves to prevent or stop the attack. These skills and self-knowledge will serve us in any conflict, whether it is office bullying, white color crime, or street crime. Training in Ninpo Taijutsu can help in a true time of danger. It can also help us reach our full potential as martial artists, self-defense students, and in the flow of our every day lives.

When studying martial arts, it is very important to study distance. When we are doing are drills and randori (free movement), focus on how distance can change based on intent and whether the fight is armed or unarmed. Also know how this judgment works in life

One of the great things about martial arts training is how we can explore who we are as people on the inside. When training, the ability to make a decision under pressure requires strong focus in the moment. Live in the moment. Plan for the future. Learn from the past.

One of the great things about Ninpo Taijutsu (Body skill training for Self Defense) is the freedom of movement and natural energy flow that are with in basics of training. Using the skills from breathing and natural expansion of the body found Ninpo Taijutsu, this will direct the body’s natural energy flow into an extraordinarily strong health promotion and self-defense method.
