- About Meditation
The art of ninjutsu is more than learning the physical skills of the martial arts. It is also finding your inner self through physical conditioning, meditation, and discipline. With the practice of meditation one develops key elements of increased awareness and detachment while increasing his/her sense of inner peace.

It is through meditation that ninjas learn how to reach the "Ku" (no-self, void), and to control the energy called "Ki" which is the essential life force existing in all things in the universe.

In meditation a ninja seeks to get to the "Ku no kyochi" (state of no-self) by integrating his/her body and mind. This state of mind gives a ninja the power to block out everything except the task at hand by using a sense of extreme calm and enhanced concentration.

- About Kujikiri
Kujikiri is a series of nine symbolic hand gestures. It invokes the spiritual and mental strength. The hand signs are believed to be able to channel energy. The hand signs were taken from the practices of the early buddhists. They are used to build confidence and strength in the practitioner. They are also believed to enhance one’s senses of danger and enable one to foresee death.

About the host

Hosted by
Vanessa

I started a ninja tour for my young shinobi friends who happened to be actors and actresses, in addition to introducing our legacy to the general public in Japan and to offering international visitors, especially families chances to see something authentic and interesting at the same time. If any of you come to our dojo in Tokyo. You'll see some of the nimpo taijutsu based on my samurai-ninja weapon-smith family legacy of 420 years. We'll show the very basic, some of what we show to the novices in our dojo, which is perhaps enough for the general public who want to get a glimpse of our legacy. The people will know that there are still shinobi, today.
