Brian excellent find. It is nice to see the elderly get involved in self defense. I remember a hand out that talked about elderly self defense and how they should wet themselves and go into a huddle position.

The Cane he is using he designs those right?

The video is cool. Thanks for posting.

Can I ask a question of anyone who knows? Is 15th dan a level that exists in most ninjitsu? Doesn't seem like the vast majority of Japanese styles go beyond 10 dan. What is a 15th dan? How would you accomplish it?

Hello BlindSage,

This is not the case in the Genbukan, the highest rank is 9th Dan and then you can also receive menkyo licences in the individual ryu ha. However, with each test there is a public check test that must be preformed.
There are no individuals with the rank of 9th Dan as of yet.

Kind Regards,

Troy Wideman
