Hi Adam,
Yeah, I have actually dyed purple uniforms for my students. To my knowledge there is no place that is selling purple gis. My understaning that the official word is that women had the...

Hi Adam,

Hello All
I will admit that I am a big fan of Wikipedia. I could spend hours going from article to article. That has got me wishing that there was a really good Bujinkan Wiki. There is already at...
As some of you may remember, way back in the day (I believe at Mrs. Hatsumi's direction) women were given an option to wear a purple uniform with a red belt or where the same black uniform with green...
Make me unsee! Damn that was awful.
I think that a safe definition might be as follows:
Ninjutsu is a Japanese martial art that, in addition to armed and unarmed combat skils, in its system includes espionage, infiltration and...
I am of the mind that Ninjutsu is a uniquely Japanese martial system, so any art claiming to be Ninjutsu must, at its core, be Japanese. I do not believe that clumping together a bunch of martial...
So how do you define Ninjutsu? The simple answer might be to say that Ninjutsu is the art of perseverance. While that may be true, under that broad, ambiguous definition any martial art might be...
Hello Matt,
First of all I must commend you on a very nice looking dojo and matching web site. Both have a good feel to them.
There have been some really good suggestions already made. To...
Clint, if you are claiming that you are not teaching the Bujinkan arts why did you register the domain name bujinkanhouston.com (See Below)?
The data contained in GoDaddy.com, Inc.'s WhoIs...
Clint, yesterday I saw that you were on this forum for quite some time, certainly enough time to answer my questions privately but instead you sent me an "I'll get back to you later" e-mail. When...
For those who don't know, I am currently working in a network operations center on the graveyard shift and therefore
sometimes have free time to do research. I am still waiting to get from Mr....
Yes, he has. To that end, I have sent him a private message and I am currently awaiting his response.
From what I have seen I don't think that this is so much an issue of fraud as much as it is...
I don't think that the issue is that he is doing his own thing. That is not the problem. The issues at hand are that he is being evasive about his background and that he claims to base his martial...
Hi Robert,
Yes, the Ninja Court of Law can be a monster unto itself and I can understand your sentiments.
However, for myself, I am tired of seeing good people being taken in by bogus...
Just for the record I deleted a post I made because I thought it was directed to me. After rereading it I saw that it was not. Therefore I deleted it. My apologies for any confusion.
Clint, I am assuming that you replied to the orignal post to legitimize yourself otherwise, if being seen as legitimate were not a concern, you would not have responded at all.
In looking at your...
By the way Clint, unless I am desperately mistaken, the kanji should be:
火十文字道
And not:
火十道
When you put up a logo (placeholder or otherwise) without checking the kanji you present...
A couple of questions:
From whom did you receive your shodan and when.
Who are these "high ranking practitioners from the Bujinkan organization" of which you speak?
Note to modereator: I am not sure where this should go so if you need to move it please feel free to do so.
Hello Everyone,
I am in the preliminary stages of planning a new new event which...
I seemed to have caused offense. My apologies to you.
Sorry. No links. What links were you expecting? Pretty much everything in my last post was personal observation and opinion. The only thing that might be link worthy is the bit about 50% of...
Frankly, I think that weapons training, including sword training, is important fot the following reasons (some repeated from previous post):
1) When you lear how to use a variety of weapons you...
Well, if you feel that you are being scrutinized, you may want to ask yourself. What have I done in my posting to draw such scrutiny?"
Please consider the following:
1) For one who claims as much...
Given the queries made by George and John, I have to ask a similar question. Who did you train with in the Bujinkan. Also, you don't mention any ranks for any of the arts that you say you have...
[QUOTE=Joe Jackson]
Now, what about you, John? How old are you and what have you done?/QUOTE]
I think that is a fair question.
I am 42 and have been training in the Bujinkan since the mid...
