    e239 - KUDEN! - Ninpo Insights into Success & Struggle

    Within the Shinobi Warrior’s philosophical underpinnings – the life-mastery and wisdom teachings that cover the “OTHER HALF” of TOTAL training – is the study of what many call “the Human Condition.” Called by different names across as many lineages, this is known as Seishin Teki Kyoyo – ‘personal development, clarity, and spiritual refinement’ – within […]

    e237 - KUDEN! - Budo-Taijutsu vs Ninpo-Taijutsu: What the Hell Are We Doing?

    When the art of the Ninja exploded onto the scene in the early ‘80s here in the Western-world, everything… everywhere was about “Ninjutsu” and how it was different from nearly every other conventional (read: ‘modern’) martial art. But, along the way a shift occurred and, ever since then, there has been a debate about whether […]

    e236 - KUDEN! - Ninjutsu Strategy: Why Head-On Fighting Isn't the Ninja Way

    Ever since the art’s introduction to the Western world, it has always been easy for folks, both inside and outside the art, and especially those coming from more conventional martial arts backgrounds, to try and relate to and/or translate Ninjutsu through that lens.

    e235 - KUDEN! - The Ninja's Psychological Maai: Using Distance to Protect Your Sanity

    It’s easy to understand physical distance, known generally as MAAI in Japanese, regardless of whether we’re talking about a carpenter or other tradesman measuring off a certain length of wood or tubing to make sure things fit, or the distance between our body and that of our assailant in a self-defense situation.

    Every master teacher I have ever trained with had a saying – something which summarized their approach to training, and a very important, core lesson they wanted students to “get,” through their study and practice.
