Fundamental and Advance of Ninpo Taijutsu Bootcamp at Boston Martial Arts Center
When training for self defense and martial arts it is very important to keep an eye on what the mind is doing. When you’re in danger you have to be able to make a second-to-second choice that can help keep you safe. When an attacker is trying to control us it is important to stay in control of our mind and body first. When training and using Ninpo Taijutsu (our self defense martial arts method) we can train to stay in control and keep on the task of defending and then ending the conflict.

I was working on kenjutsu last week and was moving with my training partner changing kamae (position based on what my spirit is sensing in relation to a changing environment). This requires the mind and body to stay sharp, because if your mind floats for one moment you could be in over your head. A good starting place on how not to get in over your head is “Stay in the moment, not before or after.”
The longer we train in martial arts, the deeper we come to understand ourselves. This deep understanding comes from first training with the physical techniques and then studying the effect the training has on us. If you train with a sincere heart, you can gain great value from martial arts.
