I see no evidence of clashes between Bujinkan and Genbukan. One grew out of the other, they attend each other's seminars and are pretty similar but for teaching method. "I've found many different names, acronyms, terms, and other things that is in the Ninjutsu curriculum; many including Japanese words and names; these I have no idea of what they mean, what they are, or how they are explained. Is there someone out there that...

I'm 38 as of yesterday. 15 years ago, I had both knees crushed in a car accident, which resulted in broken cartillage, torn ACLs and meniscals in both legs. Basically, I was a wreck. I've still never had knee surgery. I was told that to correct my knees, I would besically be in a wheelchair for 6 months, then crutches or cane for another year. For each leg, and they wouldn't do them separately. Grand total, I'd be...

Hey AriesKai, My opinion being a product of massive cross training (5-6 different styles at the same time for 5+ years doing that) is don't do it... let just say I'm less than impressed with the results of trying to juggle so many different systems at 1 time & even now like 8 years later I retained maybe 10% on a good day, on the plus side I learned a lot about different systems, different ...

It's great to hear that you are motivated man, but there's no learning from books, DVDs or Tony Jaa movies. Firstly, no matter how correct you think you are doing something, the book, DVD or movie are not there to check your form. Secondly, learning from movies helps no one, things are cheated to make them look bigger, more impressive, more theatrical, at the expense of efficient movement and ...

Yes, it can and often does affect your ability, reducing you to gross motor movements and an embarrassing deterioration of skills. Experience with fear, feeling it and working through it, is a large part of being able to control it. You may never overcome it, but you can learn to function in spite of it. Realistic training scenarios to induce adrenal response, pushing through when mentally or...

If I had my life to live over again, I'd spend more time working on flexibility as a young man, and less time on strength training. Agility, flexibility, balance, and speed are things that will benefit you when you're older, if you gain them while you're young. Strength can be created nearly anytime - some of the strongest power lifters are in their 40's and didn't start as young men. BJJ would...
