Since I’ve been practicing ninjutsu for 6 years now, I have a pretty good grasp on the finer points. I’ve found that I’m able to get the most out of what I do, and make it feel like I’m doing something I’ve trained for years.
Because Ive spent so much time learning about ninjutsu, I know what a “nunchakun” is. It’s basically a specialized form of hand-to-hand combat that you use to fend off attacks from other ninjas.
I mean, Ive never been particularly good at anything, and Im always more of a natural-born martial artist than a ninja. Im not the best in karate, but I can still kick some ass in a karate tournament. But Ive always been more of a martial artist. One of the reasons Ive been so good at it is because Ive practiced at a full-time ninja school for almost 6 years.
The school itself is actually run by the same company that runs your average martial arts school, so it’s basically the same thing. But they’ve also got a long history of producing high-quality ninja weapons, and they’re the ones who taught me to defend myself in the first place. I can’t wait to get into a full-blown ninja tournament with these guys.
I just finished reading a great book called ninjutsu by a Japanese guy named Seung-Hui Lee whose website is www.ninjitsu-books.com. It’s an absolutely fascinating book on ninjutsu and the history and art of the ninja. It is also the best book Ive ever read on ninjutsu as it dives deep into each of their many distinct schools and how they’ve developed their own styles.
I’ve never been much of a martial artist, but I’m excited to get started. I’ve been wanting to learn this for a while now, and I know from personal experience that I’ll actually be happy when I’ve honed my ninja skills.
As the site says, ninjutsu is the art of the ninja, and its the art of the ninja to stay alive. The ninja is not a martial art. The ninja is a martial art that you use to stay alive. So if you are a martial artist, you are the ninjas. A ninja who is proficient in ninjutsu is proficient in the art of ninjutsu.
Like most self-aware, self-trained people, ninjas also have a meta-cognition. That is, we understand what it is like to be a ninja. That is, we can actually use this knowledge to get us out of trouble. As the site says, “ninjutsu is not a secret. It is a ninja secret.
The purpose of the ninja secret is to have a ninja in a fight with a bad guy. The ninja’s meta-cognition is to know that the person in front of them knows that they know that they are about to die. Instead of doing the thing that will most likely kill them, these ninjas do the thing that will not kill them. These ninjas are, in essence, the ninja’s meta-cognition.
Ninjas are not really ninjas per se. They are, however, highly meta-cognitive beings. They are part of the ninja secret, but their meta-cognition is not secret. They know that they will die. And they don’t do it because they are ninja secret ninjas. They do it because they are ninja people.
