Ninjutsu Melbourne
Reality Based Self Defence
Virtually all of the training is done in pairs for example a typical drill might be they grab your shirt with their right hand and punch to the head with the left, we then practise a defence against this situation. Our partnered training methods are much better preparation for real life self defence than standing in a line and doing techniques by the numbers in the air.
Martial Arts Weapons Training
Our Teenage Martial Arts students study the Hanbo 3 foot staff and the Bo 6 foot staff. Skills include all of the basic strikes, blocks and spinning methods as well as a selection of Kata (prearranged series of techniques) from the Kukishinden Ryu. In the Teenage Martial Arts classes we concentrate on the basic to intermediate levels of training with the Hanbo. Some reasons why this training is an essential area of study not to be ignored include.
- It accelerates your unarmed self-defence skills.
- It assists in creating more intense training experience for our students
- It teaches different distances of defence and safety
It helps keep students interested in training long term because they learn many different things, this helps them to improve all round.
Weapons Training
Bo staff (6 foot staff)
There are 60 Kata in the schools syllabus and the Junior Adults train in a dozen of these sixty techniques, we cover a lot more when you move on up to the adults training.
Hanbo (3 foot staff)
Originated from the Bo either breaking or being cut in half in battle. There are many ways to use the Hanbo which makes it an interesting weapon to study.
Martial Arts for Teenagers
For both our High School aged students and our Adults we offer training in many different areas of self defence such as...
Rolling · Punching · Throwing techniques · Nerve Strikes · Break falls · Body Evasions · Knife Defence · Stretching · Joint Locks · Awareness training · Kicking · Pressure Points
This is all applied using highly specialised evasive footwork so you are much harder target to hit.
Knife Defence for Teenagers
Do you know that there are several thousand knife attacks reported in Melbourne each year? And the most common age for carrying a knife is between 13 and 20 years old. So for Teenagers especially knife defence training is a very important part of Self Defence training.
In addition to the training done in our normal teen classes we also offer seminars throughout the year on knife defence and highly recommend students participating in these specialist events.
