Warrior And Ninja, The

Are you trying to learn ninjutsu - the art of shadow warriors of old Japan - the Ninja? I can understand why. The art of Ninjutsu as a martial art composite system can support the most comprehensive, combat, but not only managed to live well and of course ever created.

But how approaches ninjutsu fighting still seems to be a mystery even to most of those who practice it. One reason is the tendency to try to apply traditional knowledge, wisdom, and methods in trying to understand how and why we approach a given topic.

The fact is that to learn ninjutsu, you need a mentor who has been initiated and guided the training of the mind, body and spirit training by another senior teacher - the one carrying the secrets that have been handed down through the centuries.

One of these secret centers around how a true ninja sees his weapons. And it is true that the ninja has more weapons than you can imagine how he thinks and relates to the notion of weapons is beyond the normal scope of most martial artists.

You see, rather than categorize weapons by name (ie sword, staff, Kyoketsu-shoge, etc.), the true ninja categorized by type of weapons. This delivery system as weapons in a class or category, allowing the ninja to see beyond the form of a given weapon, and even "borrow" the lessons of a tool, and apply it to others.

The five classifications of weapons Ninja Combat System include:

1) Blade - This includes not only the sword, kama (sickles), and other conventional weapons, but also knives, and even objects like knives modern credit card (and credit cards themselves) are included in the category.

2) Stick - All rokushaku-bo (6 'staff), the shortest Jo, Hanbo, and EDA-koppo glue on the end of the classical spectrum, and the modern equivalents such as broom handles, two by four pool cues and smaller objects such as pens, chopsticks, and screwdrivers fit into the gun "type."

3) Flexible - This category includes items such as ropes, ropes, belts, and ancient weapons like the Ninja kusari-Fundo (chain weighted). In line with this strategy, even things like towels, newspapers and magazines open, and pieces of clothing can be harnessed for weapons to defend yourself.

4) Shot - Do not be limited to conventional weapons obvious as the arrow and the shuriken (throwing stars), arms in the rankings also include small switch blades designed to start, and - since the introduction of this weapon by the Portuguese - firearms.

5) Combination - No entry in the art of ninjutsu is closed-ended. And same goes for weapons. This classification is for those who have no weapons category final. Weapons such as naginata and spear - combining features of sticks and knives, and Kyoketsu-shoge kusari-gama - the blade assembly, and flexible arms and others like them get owned here.
