Re: My Ninjutsu experience

@Stuey

I agree with you completely. We went to far. But is it so bad practice and is it so bad?

And yes, i live in completely different society, and have different laws.

Re: My Ninjutsu experience

The reason you got those reactions is because there are 2 options:

- your story is not true, in which case you would be a fraud like many of the other known ninjutsu frauds.
- your story is true (meaning those things really happened t you) in which case your training was highly dangerous, irresponsible, and totally outside of what is known about ninjutsu training in any of the known legit ninjutsu organizations.

So regardless of whether your story is true or false, there would be objections either way. I am not passing judgement because I don't have a way to know which one it is. Assuming it is true, I think it was irresponsible of you to do those things, because you were lucky to survive intact. If parents worry about their kids, it is because they love them and don't want to see them get hurt.

My mother never objected to my martial arts involvement when I was in college. She even didn't mind when I spent more time with my sensei than with my parents. But she did want to know what I was doing, and that I was under competent supervision. She didn't mind me sparring, but she would have objected to me running around on rooftops in the dark, or climbing multistory building without safety gear.

Re: My Ninjutsu experience

Tiger,

I just re-read all your postings in this thread and I don't see that you've mentioned your instructor's name anywhere. Could you provide it? There are a lot of experienced Bujinkan practitioners here and in the ... unlikely ... event that this gentleman was an legitimate instructor in the Bujinkan, they might recognize the name.
