I guarantee all these "secretive" arts would be flushed down the toilet in a hurry after getting your femur splintered by a single Thai leg kick.

What if I skip the shin conditioning and grab a baseball bat?

And Bam -- nice give and take. That's what this board should be about.

Well that as I said is YOUR opinion.

The "Tai leg Kick" can be easily seen and turned against the attacker. It's all about the ability of the warrior to be able to take control of the timing of the conflict. That kick will always miss when aimed at a true Warrior. It's too easy to see.

Ninjutsu is not about some "Secret" knowledge, It is about the "Jihi No KoKoro" or translated the "Loving Heart". The pure energy collected from all around us (Ki) is used to see and react to the kick or any other attack by changing the timing of the conflict to gain the advantage. You can only learn this from a master and you can only use this if you are true in spirit.

You'd think a true warrior would have to test his abilities against other "true warriors." You think training in a dojo or wherever even remotely compares to fighting world-class opponents at the K-1 or PRIDE level? Keep dreaming.

Explain to me, in detail, how you would stop the kick. What would you do, physically, to "turn the kick against me"?

Well actually I think that Fighting in any tournement is a waste of time. I know that a true warrior is not concerned with such things. In a combat between two warriors, there is respect for the other warrior and an acknowledgement that one will win and one will lose. There is no pride, shame, fear, or any other basic human emotion. The true warrior has already accepted the fact that we all will end this physical existance at some unknown time so there is no point in fearing that. To fear failure is to fail. The warrior who has moved beyond this physical fear has already won the battle. Read about The Greatest warior that ever existed (Miamoto Mushashi) and then see the truth.

Well first of all, you didn't even answer how you'd stop the kick. I doubt you even know the mechanics of it.

Second, let me give you a hypothetical situation. A group of boys want to become a basketball team. They practice dilligently, but never play against another team, much less professionals. They never learn opposing strategies, or how to counter them, because they're never faced with coaches and players that have different thoughts and ideas. After several years, they're thrown in court vs. the Lakers. The lakers have refined training, strategy, conditioning, skill, all versus opponents of varying skill levels. They've been in real games and tournaments more than anyone can count, vs. real players, who think, adjust, and counter as well.

Which team wins? If you never get in a real match with someone of real talent, you'll get eaten alive vs. those that have been there. This has been proven time and again.

Thats why any person who is really interested in improving him or her self trains with the masters at camps and in the dojo. The spiritual connection that a true warrior has with the infinite is the key. I did not answer your question about the "Mechanics" of blocking your kick because that is beside the point. Any attack can be countered in neumerous ways using the awarness that comes with a true connection with God (The Infinite). There is no "correct" answer to your "Mechanical" question. There is only the actual situation as it happens. I was once attacked by a young man who pulled a knife out of his pocket. He wanted my money and said so, I simply faced him in the eyes and told him that he was acting in an inapproiate fassion. The energy that I possesed and showed him made him a believer. As I stated, The (Ki) or energy within us is the deciding factor in any conflict. I walked away from that situation without ever having to harm the attacker. This is the goal. To "Win the conflict" without harming the attacker. Every situation is unique, You can never know what course you will take or what the outcme will be. If you profess to know the "Best or final answer" then you have already lost.

Pseudo-religious bullshit that would get you killed in any real combat situation.

I agree debaser, I think the old bammer may have taken too many hits off of the ol' crack pipe. While he is out there training with the "true master" and scaring knife wielding attackers off with his stern voice, there are those of us that are actually acquiring real self defense knowledge. Many ninjiutsu pros have come to my bjj/muay thai school and found themselves tapping with glee, and signing a contract to learn how to really protect themselves. While bambam is busy readying his CHI to try and scare people he will have found himself laying in a bloody heap wondering why he did not take up a more effective martial art that can be used in real life practical situations. I do not make these assumptions from believing that my art is superior to yours, I make this statement in truth because I have studied several martial arts, including ninjiutsu, and hold significant rank in all of them except ninjiutsu because the art is not very practical or effective at all, If you need my credintials I can post them gladly, or you could come to my school and witness what real effective martial arts look like.

I think bam is just a troll anyway, he doesn't even have any profile information whatsoever filled out.
