When you are injured in an accident, whether at your job, in your car, or simply walking down the street, it can greatly affect your life. For instance, you may have physical trouble performing your duties at work; that is to say if you aren't incapacitated in a more severe way. If you can't go to work, you can't receive a paycheck, and that can quickly escalate into more problems. Fortunately, you can file an injury claim that...more

The art of Ninjutsu martial arts training is known for its number of weapons. Regardless of whether the weapon is designed to be concealed or not, the Ninja always seems to be able to get his weapon out much faster than his opponent.In fact, one of the most common questions that I get, from everyday students as well as law enforcement and military professionals is, "what suggestions do you have for carrying my weapons for better concealment and use?"This article offers a few suggestions - things to think about from a strategic standpoint, that will not only improve your weapons skills, but also get you thinking more like a Ninja about this and other areas of your training!However, before I share with you some suggestions for carrying and concealing your weapons, I want to discuss a few other considerations first.

Every martial art, by its very nature, will make its practitioners physically and mentally strong. And, the art of Ninjutsu - the art of Japan's ancient Ninja families is no different. In fact, with all of the additional skills within the art, the Ninja practitioner must take matters into his or her own hands to insure that their body is capable of both performing the skills, and enduring the chaos that they are preparing to survive.One of the most common questions that I get from students, both online and off, is..."Aside from being in good shape and flexible, what else do you think I can do?"Now, I know that what lies behind the question is a mindset that is limited to seeing "strength and flexibility" as merely aspects and products of physical exercise.

But, having a deeper understanding about the way your body works, will allow you to be more successful in attaining a greater level of...more
