I've done Ninjutsu and Kenjutsu for most of my life and this guy is 1000% spot-on in everything he said. The first thing I was taught in both disciplines was how to stand upright, perfectly relaxed. Everything that came next came from just complete relaxation. Making movements from open concealment. Using every part of the body and every opening/weakness in your opponent. This video makes me VERY happy.

I've also seen some styles that everyone says are the best get beat to a pulp. If you train it in a way that is hard, violence of action, and focus the techniques for real world self-defense you can make it work, and Ive seen it work well.......just my 2 cents.

Obviously we might not show that eagerness to learn in school, but I mean when it's something we're into or want to do, we're definitely taught to behave along those lines.

@sirseigan Жыл бұрын

Strategies is treated as possible pieces of the puzzle within Bujinkan. However what piece to use when is more decided on "feeling" and instinct based on the sensery feedback (often tactile) the consius thought. The thought behind that is that consius thought is too slow and usually mess up things like distance and timing. The "feeling" of things is very emphased within the Bujinkan trsinkng. "Combos" and katas are treated more like a tree of possible moves then a linjear sequence of moves. Each move in the chain is supposed to open up a whole new set of possible moves. Therefore a big part of the technique traning is focused to recognice and act on such "openings", no matter if tgat means to engage or disengage. Bujinkan also often train to stop a move in the middle and change direction, not like to faint (wich is also done) but more as a adaptation on new info and to train up the bodycontrol needed to be able to quickly act upon it. As such you can see fall techniques that change direction in the middle, or throws that is aborted mid air and then turned into a slam, or a joint lock that halfway reverse and change direction (which I have not seen in many other styles, but that can be just my ignorance). What I am trying to say is that he do not think 12 steps a head. However he has enough branches on his technique-tree, enough tools, to adapt to the constant change of his oponent and the situation as a whole. To see every new situation with new set of fresh eyes and adapt accordingly. In hindsite that can look like he was thinking twelve steps a head, but in the situation it is just one step at the time that seemlessly interlock with eachother in an (idealy) "endless" flow of insticive movement. So to use the chess algory; it is more like speed chess, moving on instict quicky adapting to the new board each turn, rather then the slow deep thinking and well thought through moves of ordinary chess. If that makes any sense 😊 So not "thinking", more "feeling" 😉

Properly taught ninjutsu is one of the best traditional styles for bouncing/crowd control if you're a reasonably sized guy, but schools who do regular pressure testing are very rare. I'd still encourage MMA or other combos over it (ie, wrestling and boxing), but a lot of the traditional/historical restrictions that inform ninjutsu seem to be particularly practical and effective when working in security. I never understood ninjutsu's short, limited movements and strikes until I started working in a crowded club environment and having to grapple people regularly.

@oni_goroshi 8 ай бұрын

I'm a nidan in Bujinkan budotaijutsu and former bouncer. I can definitely say ninjutsu\ taijitsu is extremely effective in bouncing. Every time I had to use it in an altercation, the fight was over before it began and on several occasions the aggressor was subdued without other customers seeing what happened or noticing. All they might see is someone being escorted out, but they wouldn't see the joint locks or pain compliance being used.

This was actually very insightful. Most martial arts you want to use your whole body to get the power, in this you use smaller movements to kind of manipulate your way behind an opponents defense and strike weak points fast and consecutively.

@WeBreakItAllDownRightHere Жыл бұрын

You bring up good points. I want to offer that this martial art uses gravity to move the body as one piece for all of its striking. So instead of throwing a punch, you extend your arm, bend the knees, turn the shoulder, and sort of "fall" on the target. Try it on a wall.

@varanid9 Жыл бұрын

Sort of, but you use your legs to send your body weight against your opponent in a natural falling motion powered by gravity (Jack Dempsey writes of similar dynamics to power his jab). If you miss, you roll into a different attack or hook him as you pass, or leg-lock, or whatever; you learn there are no mistakes. This use of body weight and gravity also applies to throws and grapples, sent against your opponent's point of imbalance. The hardest part is learning to be naturally relaxed so you can move instantly, instead of being like most people where you have to sort of "un-tense" before you actually start to move.

Real fighting methods. Natural movements bypass the conscious mind, anything un natural in movement stands out to us, it's how the brain processes all the information coming in. For the Ninja this can be referred to as Kyo Jutsu, utlizing truth and falsehood, while the ninja is doing one thing he is really taking from another area. Often what looks like is happening is actually something different going on. It looks like the wrist is taken, then the hit comes from the other hand to the ribs etc. If they can see it they start to counter it and it's harder to make it work. Show one thing do another, is the skill of the ninja as Jesse says there's so many things going on at the same time. Sensory overload.

Dr. Kacem Zoughari holds a PHD in classical Japanese martial arts and was one of the few Europeans that were allowed to hold lectures in Japanese universities. I recommend his book " The Ninja: Ancient Shadow Warriors of Japan " if you are interested in the history of the art....and other various books written by him ofc. Avoid Anthony Cummins.

As a kid a read a book in the library with ninja techniques, one was how to walk up a staircase without it creaking by stepping near the walls - and it seems like every other kid of the 80s read the same book. Have you?

Even though Ninjutsu is one of the most deadliest and dangerous martial arts styles around the world (which can either be fused with a number of other styles' techniques and disciplines around the world or not), it must be used wisely and tempered with both mental and spiritual discipline, and moral values such as bushido.

I got into togakure ninjitsu in my teens from an uncle who was taught from a student of masaaki Hatsumi. What got me into it was just what Jesse experienced in this video. The unassuming chess like movements and anticipation to chain together attacks and powerful slight but effective taijutsu. I translated some ninjitsu techniques into my bjj game such as the omote gyaku and ura gyaku to manipulate wrists when some goes to grab the gi as well as the oni kudaki to break elbow posture and manipulate the arm to counter opponent clinch along with the slight drop in level change to break my Opponent posture which throws people off most times.

@daffydlandegge3843 4 ай бұрын

I've noticed that's a very effective technique to pull off on "clinchers". Imagine if you were to punch through to execute the technique instead ... saiyanara tendons & possible ligaments

@goukhanakul 4 ай бұрын

@@daffydlandegge3843 yeah definitely. Especially if your uki doesn’t expect it or isn’t anticipating it. Kinda like how Orlando Sanchez reaped it on Sean Strickland in that video awhile back it can really injure your partner. It can only enhance techniques between martial arts and should be encouraged just like what has been done with the ashi game in modern bjj

@goukhanakul 4 ай бұрын

It can also be used very well in reaction to clinchers as they pull away from it to break posture with an instep to get the under hooks or blast doubles. I usually analyze they’re dominant hand and attack the opposite side to advance

When I was younger we trained with many weapons from multiple martial arts but one course that I did was called defend tech in learning how to combat real life knife attacks & maybe it’s something you could look at for self defence reasons. 🙏 love your videos mate
