nekobi 0 Posted May 22, 2003 Share Posted May 22, 2003 i did ninjitsu for a couple of months when i first got to japan. but then it got too cold in the unheated gym and i wasn't really taking it seriously or anything (just doing some moves with a couple of other gaijin) so i quit. i liked doing stuff with a kendou stick- felt really natural, like a hockey stick in my hands, so i want to give that a go. but i'm not too keen on the before and after school practices my school's kendou club does.

rach 1 Posted May 23, 2003 Share Posted May 23, 2003 Really? Didnt know that. Link to post Share on other sites
nekobi 0 Posted May 23, 2003 Share Posted May 23, 2003 ninjitsu wasnt weird. i guess since i was just with other gaijin, i didnt get any of the philosophical aspects or really learn too much about it. we just mainly did self defense moves, sometimes with kendou sticks or fake knifes. it was fun to kinda wrestle then pin someone down. i wish i got a ninja costume though. that would have been cool.
