What I hate about Bujinkan

[BJMills]

The lock and sweep can happen but the description of the injury is very suspect.

I concur.

The props: Phsysically they were in great shape. The warm up was tough. The atmosphere was good as well, they were a friendly bunch.

Any chicks in the class? Or was it a sausage fest?

The bad: Only straight lunge punches with vertical punches to a taped up phonebook.

Who the hell still does that?

The worse: Their guard was keeping your arm out, hand open, fingers pointed at your opponents heart. Seems like a bad way to defend yourself but a good way to hurt your fingers.

Huh. There is a kamae like that but normally an uke nagashi is done, with a closed fist.

The bizarre: Unarmed defense against a katana which involved sidestepping and then shoulder rolling away. I remember nearly every evasive movement involving a shoulder roll.

Sword attacks being relatively infrequent in the States. Where are you from?

If however I do come across an assailant armed with a katana I will offcourse rue the day I didn't take up bujinkan. Or stop playing GTA.

They have katanas in GTA? Got to check that out.

There were some girls, but mainly a sausage fest. Apparently the only university martial arts clubs with a large number of girls is the taekwondo club which also offers taekwondo dance lessons as well.

Belgium. Where most fights can be solved with beer.

Oh man you got to post some video of that. Sounds like it could be really really entertaining.

I posted some vids years back in the KMA forum.

Great way to pick up Korean chicks.

I too, am intrigued by this.
