Archive for July, 2014More Q and A with Airyu!Thursday, July 24th, 2014Hey a shout out to all you Ninjas! Thanks for all the emails the last few weeks as I have been traveling and working I haven’t been able to respond to all of them but here are a few for you that have been asked a few times: “What is your favorite weapon?” – Actually as Musashi wrote “A warrior should have no favorite weapon”. I love weapons of all sorts pointy ones tend to attract me a lot! Swords, knives, shurikens, etc. but even modern weapons such as all firearms, and even things that go BOOM! I’ll post a few articles about weapons training soon! “What is your favorite strategy?” – Kyojitsu tenkan no ho. I use it in many ways and am always attempting to improve my depth of understanding of this powerful strategy. “Do you take in Uchi Deshi?” – No, I do teach privately, as well as travel to do seminars and spread the word about what I practice. For those of you who are interested in training with me, drop me a line and I’ll get back to you with the details. “Do I recommend cross training in other arts?” – Of course! The more you experience in all things the more you can appreciate and gain insight to true budo.
Alright, now a question for all of you, I am working on too many projects and I would like your inputs on what to create for posts, podcasts and even products. Either email me or post here and I will take them all in so I can better serve and send out the information that each of you want! Until next time—-Bufu Ikkan!
