That's great to hear! I'm a great believer in weapons being a really useful tool to improve training methods overall, as well as adding in aspects of zanshin and timing etc. Glad you approve! :)
I really liked that kotegaeshi variation with the push off on the grip. If someone gets a strong grip on a collar that isnt stretchy like a tshirt breaking it off can be nigh on impossible
This is a gentlemen I'd like to talk to, have always had an interest in "special forces" troops throughout history from the byzantines through to the SAS and ninjutsu families often performed the same mercenary roles.
Jumanji is a fire element,I know it can work while backing off but it's made as an explosive movement as if your back was against a wall. Also important to hit the butsu metsu to take away the spirit
Because these are old fashioned, TRADITIONAL drills, more of a historical reference. They were designed to teach distance and timing etc. They have "modern" variations of these too i believe that are much more "functional"
I’m pretty sure that is a knife position and when he steps back and says use whatever you have to finish him off I’m fairly sure he means handgun or rifle. This is combat for war.
I can see why you're first reaction might be that, but these are "traditional' kata first developed hundreds of years ago, mainly trained nowadays to keep the pedagogy alive, but also as a mean to training the underlying principles, much like karate and judo would train drills to develop timing, balance etc. it's more of a historical record than anything else, and in that way has value.
A bi g shout out to Nick for sharing this with us when quite a few wouldnt.
Ive been using the hanbo to pratice kihon happo since c19.

@@AIKIDOSILVERDALE They don't bend,so when applied to 'HUMAN' I can only imagine. Lol
Nick is such a good guy - and i love how me shows the classical form then often shows "His" version adapted for the shorter stature. Good stuff.
totally, very open minded about his training which is why he's such a good fit for our group!
I was watching a karate "basic techniques" video the other day and the more differences you see the more similarities between all arts.
There are so many similarities here to both pre-war Aikido and Aikijutsu! valuable observations.

10:00 beautiful.
From an Aikidoka pov it's astonishing how much ninjutsu and Aikijutsu have in common

jumanji also a good board game for all the family.
Not if he has a knife in his other hand. You have to take action quickly.
but in this scenario, he didn't? Right?
I didn't say he did. I was just being realistic.
If he had a gun, or a spear, or a chain it would also be different...
@@AIKIDOSILVERDALE Sure, but the technique better be effective and fast.
@@Religious_man but what's your point exactly? That if the attacker was armed the response would be different? Isn't that a given?
🥷🥷
🤣🤣😂😂
why punches like that?

@nikosskeptikos6295 that makes sense. Understood
Interestingly if you check some of the other ninjutsu videos on this channel a lot of their grappling techniques are identical to bjj and Aikijutsu
