Sparring

In the Bujinkan there is not a culture of sparring or pressure testing, actually there are very few BJK Dojo that do this training world wide.  Over the years i've trained with BJK people that regard it as essential and BJK people that have no interest in it whatsoever. However some students feel the need to test themselves in this way, they just have to tick that box in their mind that what we do works.

If you're a BJK Instructor or Student that would like to talk about this training and how we approach it then feel free to contact me, I'm more than happy to pass on what we've learned along the way if it helps you with your training.

All these photos were taken while sparring at about 25% so the camera could capture the movements, somtimes students wear head gear and mits but most prefer just mits

Sparring / Randori

Sparring / Randori is done against random attacks using Bujinkan Ninjutsu techniques as both the attacks and defences, then once you can do that pretty well we start to add in attacks from outside our system (shoots, different kicks etc)

My thinking on sparring is that the person defending needs to be successful 80% of the time and fail 20% of the time. Whatever speed that success/failure rate occures at then that's the speed they're capable of sparring at. It starts off slow but over time it becomes a lot  faster as the attacker sets the pace with the 80/20 rule in mind.

By the time you achieve your Black Belt you will be able to apply many techniques at a real life pace against random attacks.


Resistance in sparring , added in slowly overtime, is very important. Non resistant fully compliant training is essential for learning the mechanics, but eventually you do want more resistance added in so you can  learn to apply your training on a person trying to resist your techniques.  After all they're not just going to sit there and let you do whatever you want to them, they're going to fight back.

We also Pressure Test your responces to different situations, it's quite different to sparring.
