subject: Learn Ninjutsu - The Most Important Aspect Of A Solid Ninpo Taijutsu Training Curriculum [print this page] Are you serious about your martial arts - about progressing to the level of Mastery in your Ninjutsu training?
Well, you're not alone. The warrior arts have inspired countless individuals over the centuries, to attain the skills, abilities, and insights that allow, not only for the protection of others but also, for the control of ourselves. And the art of the Ninja has come to symbolize the ability to have exactly the right technique to be able to handle whatever the opponent wants to throw at you.
Any attacker. Any attack. Any time. Anywhere.
But, have you ever considered what makes for a curriculum that will allow for the attainment of the state of Mastery - of this kind of ability? If we set aside so-called "style," where a particular art came from, or even the number of skills involved - we have to ask the question, "How do you know that the program that you're working through will give you the necessary lessons to become the Master that you want to become?
Because... besides the need to recognize your own value and ability to be and do what must be done, and having access to teachers and fellow students who can help and support you along the way, the program - the actual curriculum - that you've dedicated yourself to learning is one of the 3 most important aspects or elements for your success.
And, contrary to popular belief, the most important aspect of a good curriculum, regardless of whether we're talking about Ninjutsu training or any other martial art, is NOT the number of "cool moves" included in it. No - the most important aspect of a solid, results-oriented curriculum is...
...skill progression and proficiency.
What that means is that, instead of collecting a number of skills, kata, or techniques, the goal is in being able to handle a real-world, attack situation with increasing ease and effectiveness. The focus is on learning techniques that fit a big-picture view of what's needed to control, neutralize, and win in combat, while simultaneously seeing that the ultimate skill is not in the techniques and skills but in the strategic application of those skills.
Skills and techniques are seen as being related to each other - as the answers to the, "what if this one fails," question. They are also seen from the perspective OF Mastery - where the technique is not confined to it's physical, basic level form, and seen to change as the students skill and comfort level at handling violent actions increases and improves.
So, the perfect curriculum will take you from technical proficiency with the skills of the system, through the ability to apply those skills in a logical flow and response to whatever a determined attacker would be throwing at you - anything that he wants to throw at you - and on into the levels where you are adept at handling such things as multiple attackers, more dangerous attacks, and even what others might think of as "unbeatable" attacks - with as little effort and wear-and-tear on you as possible.
