Why, oh why can’t I live in Bronxville, New York? It would be a dream come true to take Private Ninja Lessons from a true master. Even if I didn’t receive this as a gift for Father’s Day or my birthday, I would certainly convince my wife the $180 was a good investment in home protection and stealth investigations.

Description:

Learn the secrets of ancient martial arts and the mysterious ninja warriors with one of New York’ oldest Bujinkan schools, affiliated with Bujinkan Hombu Dojo in Japan since the early 1980′s.These legendary combat methods teach effective methods of self-protection using elusive timing, control of distance and subtle angling, i.e. like how to avoid the assault of a sword. Learn from an actual Shidoshi (teacher of the warrior ways) about the history, tradition and philosophy of these night tigers before practicing their self-defense, heightened awareness and combat strategy methods.These lessons are a great compliment to existing martial art experience. The opportunity to use weapons in this class is on a case to case scenario and under the sole discretion of the instructor.After this session with our experienced ninja instructor you will better understand the mystery and power that surrounds this 900-year-old martial art.What martial arts are taught? Your Ninja Lesson is based on the martial art of ninjutsu also, called budo taijutsu. Budo taijutsu uses relaxed, natural movement, timing and control of distance to overcome an opponent’s speed and strength. Movement is refined for grace and naturalness in all action until power results from mere movement, and evasion from a simple adjustment of position. Weaponry, striking, grappling, choking and throwing as well as methods of leaping and rolling are all disciplines that are incorporated into our curriculum. This training is one of the rare martial arts undiluted by emphasis on sport competition or artificial rules. Our training emphasizes shiken gata – combat survival techniques.
