Well it has been a few weeks since I have updated here but with 2015 here and the holiday season past we will look to this upcoming year for some great training and opportunities to grow as martial artists. We will still be training on Tuesdays for the time being and as long as the weather stays terrible we will be indoors. I hope all of you reading stop by for some training time and wish you the best in this new year!

Had another great training session tonight. We had a new member train with us for the first time this evening. We began with some dakentaijutsu and taisabaki for a warm up, then worked through omote gyaku, and ura gyaku. We spent some time working on omote gyaku ken sabaki and some henka of that technique. We finished off the evening with hoteki no waza from the koto ryu koppojutsu. Great night with some great training.

Today we reviewed the 2nd kyu testing materials in its entirety, we also worked on some of the deeper aspects of the Omote Gyaku as well as some of the variations to the technique. Great training all of us learned a great deal.

Back in Washington and training with the Trinity Bujinkan Training group tonight. We worked on some of the things learned while I was training down in California. We reviewed some of the kihon happo, specifically oni kudaki, muso dori, and jumonji no kata. We discussed some deeper principles of training as well as some variations of drills for Randori that may help sharpen awareness skills outside of the formal dojo environment.

While on vacation I had the privilege of training with the Azusa Bujinkan Dojo. I had a great time meeting and training with them. We reviewed some fundamental kihon happo techniques that needed some minor tweaks as well as some advanced choking applications which include hon jime, gyaku jime and sankaku jime.

Many thanks to Shidoshi Clum and all of his students for the great training opportunity.

Back to training, worked on Oni Kudaki, Omote Gyaku ken sabaki, and Hone gyaku. Reviewed the finishing pins from last training and continued on with hanbo techniques

Took a week off from training but I was able to pick up a copy of Soke Hatsumi's newest book, The Complete Ninja, great read so far, highly recommend

Well Dusted the mats off and went back to indoor training, no video of tonight's work. Focused more on oni kudaki, and the advanced hanbo techniques from last week. Also work on some finishing pins like go dai ichi and take ori.

Training Day !!! Well Last outdoor training day of the summer, by 730 it was pretty dark so it will be indoors till spring ! Worked on Omote and Ura Oni Kudaki, and some advanced hanbo techniques from the Kukishiden Ryu. Video coming soon !

Training Day

Another Great Training Day, The weather in Olympia, Washington has been great all summer long. We will be working with the Tanto for the next few months and did some introductory training against basic knife attacks with evasions and disarms. Reviewed the Sanshin No Kata, as well as Hon gyaku, and a henka of omote gyku.

Awesome Training today, we had a new guest join us this evening but it was definitely a schedule conflict since one of ours members was going over his test material. But other than that all was well. We reviewed all of the 8th kyu material and test requirements and reviewed some basic taihenjutsu, and taisabaki. Loving these last few days of summer. I have a feeling the weather will be coming soon and we will back to indoor training for the winter.
