[eleszar1]

to much ninja turtles for him

[derrickmcpherson44]

yea i want to take an wide step backward were some one can stomp on my knee cap

[PzXSkyLine]

White people can't be a ninja!!!

[kapoof2]

*practice any martial art for limited amount of time

*go out into forest scenery with black karate gi on

*call it ninjutsu for marketing reasons

[Gaariel]

well, this one will not work on muaythay.... if u get kicked in the leg u are down....

[ngathant88]

another ninja wanna-be white bitch.

i believe this is for elementary kids, yeah?

[YOPNIC]

omg, what a noob

[DORC101]

PPl wat the hell is wrong with you guys?!? atleast he put up his time to educate us! SO SHUTUP YOU BUDAKUI BUDA COCK SUCKERS!

[NightWolfmofo07]

o man vanilla ice is doin martial arts now lol j/k

[zrfmable]

jaja i wonder about what cloud happen if the other guy kicks his knee when the asshole puts in that crappy "defensive" stance jajaja

[Dave54600]

Who cares what it's called? It's the same back stance you see in just about every martial art. Sometimes it's longer, sometimes shorter. It's taught initially to be a deep, just to work the mechanics but at a higher level this usually depends on the individual rather than the art. It is a defensive stance, however it's also used for moving forward too. I like this guy coz he showed me how to wrist spin my nunchucks in slo-mo. WOOHOO!!!

[freezebot808]

Thats more gyokko ryu style ichimonji..Thats just one way..Sum times u have 2 go straight back..But u lean to much foward thus u r putting urself off balance...

[shadowman45810]

this stance as you keep calling it looks like Ichimonji no kamae which is a Bujinkan stance but he is sinking back way to far. Lets hope he does this on purpose to overexagerate the movement to show more clearly what he's doing?

[MoneyMaker4Ads]

one stamp on that extendd leg should sort out hes technique lol

[mattshep29]

lol

[AntiHero12109]

Thats not even an actual Ninjutsu stance, not saying that it doesn't work for him. I think this guy has learned some of the physical aspect but hardly any of the mental. From everyone's comments, nobody seems to like him anyway.

[filmsforfood]

well it is an actual ninjutsu stance. it's a water technique. thing is, this phony does it wrong. he leans back so much he's off balance. in ninjutsu, balance is vital to your power (and not falling over). he should have his weight centered over his hips. also, his front leg shouldn't ancor him, it should slide back with him a few inches and his front knee should bend. ive only been taking bujinkan ninjutsu for a week, and i know this stuff.

[AntiHero12109]

so in one week you think you not only know a proper stance when you see it, but what style it is and you're not even 20 years old? Ninjutsu has 8 stances, if you would like a link I have a good one, this however is just a made up stance. It might work for him, but calling it a ninjutsu stance is arrogant.

[shadowman45810]

Filmsforfood is actually right. It looks like this guy is doing the Ichimonji no kamae wich is associated with the water level of the godai teachings. I've been studying a little more than a week. and there are more than 8 kamae there are upwards of 53

[shadowsocietybujin]

oh lord another fake ninja- Please go to the Bujinkan for the real deal!

[Christof0127]

Agreed. None of his stances are correct to be considering Bujinkan Ninjutsu.

That kick at the beginning looked like something out of Judo or something of the sort.

[fertrester]

@Christof0127 well there are also Gebunkan, and Jinenkan Ninjutsu based organisatons too. If i know well, when Hatsumi made the bujinkan, other two former followers of Takamatsu, had made their own was of ninjutsu.

[RajDrummer1]

@fertrester jinenkan and genbukan instructirs were both students of hatsumi. tanemura (genbukan) and hatsumi had a falling out and tanemura left the bujinkan and found some of takamatsus other students before forming the genbukan. i dont know why manaka unsui (jinenkan) left the bujinkan but i dont think he is in bad terms with hatsumi.

[Arteanor]

@RajDrummer1

ah but since all of the schools you mentioned all link back to takamatsu, who i know i have already shown you... has never proven any link to anyone who ever knew ninjutsu...

and since we have a rather accurate view of what ninjutsu IS from the scrolls, hatsumi's quest to cement the ninja-mania-era relabeling of it as budo is kind of ridiculous...

but you knew that already didnt you??

[bigrussthefusss]

This guy is a conman, Hes intelligent and has mad skills, but he rips people off. He puts them in positions where they end up hurting themselves and asks them to either get up or quit, but when you tear cartiledge in your knee from doing backflips off a rock on the beach, how can you go on? kids should know better, and should be in better shape before they join his program. He can teach alot but you have to be careful and physically ready

[adrozemog]

@shadowsocietybujin I take Togakure Bujinkan Ninjutsu, and have to say that this shit is pretty aggrivating. Keep your back straight on that ichimonji, jeez is that black belt real!?!? And I've not heard of a Ninjutusu family that did their ichimonjis with their hands in that position. Anyway, he's right about why you should go back in a diagonal. I'm just hatin cuz of the other crap that he calls "Ninjitsu" and "Ninja training" when it's nothing close.

[shado802]

@shadowsocietybujin Don't underestimate him just because he's from the U.S. He's one of the best in the world. You haven't seen what he can really do, nor do you know the training he's had. He's trained with people like Hatsumi and Frank Dux.

[geekpubb]

and all the old weapons like swords and knives are now rarely used in melee combat because ninja = efficiency and that is done with silenced handguns, silenced rifles, silenced sniper, poison and more. So please get a life, and stop teaching you don't know what you are talking about and you will teach naive people the wrong things that will get them killed by a bum with a gun in an allay.

[evothefool]

Not everyone learns this stuff to fight, they learn this to defend them selves against people or to stay healthy, not like some fat people lying on the coach the whole day cause they think they are so this and that because they have a gun. And for your information a good strike can be faster then a snakes bit... i don't think that you will have the time to take the gun out of were ever you put it, then aim, then shot.

[geekpubb]

When will all these wanna be ninjutsu trainers learn that ninjutsu as all old arts have evolved, those old static moves are now irelevant, ninjutsu today is a combination of mma, parkour, pressure points hits, lots of anatomy lessons, kickboxing(as it brings more technique then mma) karate power hits to break bones with bare hands

[9shadowstyle]

thanks support us (people) we will support you look at choson ninja...why....he has allll freeee vidddssss for training meaning more view ^_^ post more training, support us and well support you thank you *bows*

[kerkezpavle]

You are so getting on my nervs vith your insults.Rick tew should break your necks,you stupid biches.If he doesn't,i will.

[spy69yps]

at 0:35 cant sum1 just stomp on ur left leg and break it?

[superdruid999]

actually i cant tell if that leg is bent or extended, so he should have demonstrated it from the side aswell. if its extended it could easely break. if its bent enough it wouldnt.

[SpeedeyFreaks]

for thats are the hands -.-' i think i dont know i starting training this next week :)

[maceioninjutsu]

its the fake koga dude lmao

[Breeegz]

Be glad it's free.

[anirudhkrishnamani]

the defensive stance is known as ichimonji no kamae.

[Lant3rn]

video summary: RICK TEW SUCKS

[LittleTruckingBozo]

Ok see ya.

[Blasfulmous]

That's it I don't care what you say I'm not responding to anyone. If you want to prove your BJJ is so superior to kung fu then challenge a true master of kung fu like a sifu to the death. You will surely be proven wrong and lose your life as well. Kung fu was created for war not for points. Try grappling when you face 2 guys at the same time KIDDO. I'm finished with you

[LittleTruckingBozo]

There can be confusion about kempo. Don't for get that. There are many types of kempo, there is shaolin kempo that is vary much like the one I use to teach. This video is what I use to teach. watch?v=cqHdUrfoEj0 But then there is korean kempo. American kempo. (American kempo sucks is designed for a point system that. And is nothing more the a little better version of karate) shaolin kempo is a modified version of korean kempo if I remember correctly.

[LittleTruckingBozo]

What tell you get to the knife and stick fighting the real fun starts there. you will be doing something like this watch?v=a-TytzvopOY

[Blasfulmous]

You need to stop looking around youtube for random videos to explain yourself. I don't feel like internet fighting I prefer real life. Obviously you have no clue about the main idea of what I was talking about. Knife and stick fighting.. I already told you I sparr with bokken. Not only have I attended classes I was a teacher for a few months but I hated teaching slow learning people.

[LittleTruckingBozo]

"You need to stop looking around youtube for random videos to explain yourself."

And just how do you think I'm using videos to explain my self? See I am explaining something to some one else. and not you.

"Obviously you have no clue about the main idea of what I was talking about."

Really why is that?

"Knife and stick fighting"

That comment was not meant for you. It was meant for Steeky who said he was just starting what I all ready know.

[LittleTruckingBozo]

"Not only have I attended classes I was a teacher for a few months but I hated teaching slow learning people."

Wow! you keep coming up with more and more things you are a part of. Is there any thing you have not done?

[LittleTruckingBozo]

Wow do you not get it. fighting styals came from war MMA just takes it a step further it brings many fighting types together not just one. Also Do you think Grappling on the ground is the main thing? You may want to watch some UFC. Some fights never go to the ground. You learn MMA so you can fight any outcome from many people to one on one or even a David and david and goliath.

[Blasfulmous]

My grammar is fine and it's spelled against not aegis or what ever it is you're trying to spell. kung fu being my only style is exactly what you said actually. But kung fu grappling is about taking the opponent out quickly and no messing around. Just go learn more about these styles first kiddo then try to argue.

The fight lasted not even a minute and it's not like it was in the octagon I was able to leave afterwards right away. I did the sitting dragon which put me in the spot to arm lock him.

[Blasfulmous]

You do not know how to spell either, I'm surrounded by unschooled americans aren't I? Kung fu is my base, I train in several styles just in case you missed that part as well. Instructors never say anything about not fighting any style. You just think it's best because it's most popular. I wouldn't expect anything more from a rookie anyway. And F.Y.I. There is grappling in kung fu, actually a lot of reverse and joint lock techniques. If you weren't so ignorant you'd know this.

[LittleTruckingBozo]

The stance is not practical. it gives hem less response time for lower block. I personally would just go for his knee an brake it, seeing that its almost fully starched out and the weakest link in his stance. People think this is a cool style because it looks good. but vary unpractical. all the jumping and extra moves to make it look good will just were the person doing this out.

[Blasfulmous]

If you were familiar with choy lay fut martials you would know that you can switch that stance to an offensive one very quickly if they try to break your knee.

[LittleTruckingBozo]

Yes however, The problem is by you know whats coming it's to late to react and switch, your knee is broken. And it really is not that fast to switch and if the person is not really going for the knee you would be in for a really Eye opener as you find your self walking in to a new problem.

[Blasfulmous]

Do you know anything about sitting dragon stance? the significance of it is that you can move into it while receiving a knee strike which shocks your opponent leaving them open for a back fist strike or side kick. I suggest you check out choy lay fut, very effective style to learn. hongluck'dot'org

[LittleTruckingBozo]

Yes I do. Obviously you don't know what that other move would be. there is a reason why no one in the MMA and many other metal arts would sand as he does. 1. The response time is two slow by the time some one see the strike its to late. 2. the amount of energy needed is double that of a normal person 3. The wight distribution and stance its self is a huge disadvantage thats why you don't see any professional on any circuit use it. When was the last time you seen a MMA or olympic fighter use it?

[Blasfulmous]

In pretty much all MMA competitions they take short cuts which dramatically reduce the effectiveness of the attack or block so don't refer to them as a backbone. I last saw someone use it while sparring and he barely touched the guy and made him end up on the ground on his own then was grappled into a headlock... it requires barely any effort to do as well.

[LittleTruckingBozo]

Really is that you clam. But then if some one wanted to win then why take a short cut? IF you no the effectiveness of something? They are not using "short cuts" they are using the best knowledges they can get for the goal to win. Short cuts would be the opposite of what they are doing. The goal is to use the most effective methead. If the short cut is more effective then the original the yes they would use it because its more effective.(Better)

[LittleTruckingBozo]

(continue..) MMA fighters can are people who bring there fighting styles in to the right its not just one particular set. Look at people with a ninjutsu or kung fu fighter who has a fighting stance like that. Why do the experienced ninjutsu and kung fu fighters drop that stance after a few fights and never bring it into a MMA fight or any fighting ring?

[LittleTruckingBozo]

(Last continued...) Because It does not work and is highly impractical. As for your claim you seen some one who did. With out having a source or me seeing it with my eyes, the claim is a invalid one.

[Blasfulmous]

Well when I say short cuts.. look at someones round house kick in the UFC. It's completely broken down just for the sake of speed that it does almost nothing to the opponent. If someone was to do a proper round house and connect it is possible to break when ever body part that gets in it's way.

As for you're ignorance to the sitting dragon stance I'll see if I can get it on tape next time I sparr. It can work very well.

[LittleTruckingBozo]

It's highly affective. Ware did you get that idea? They may look to you like there is nothing else to it but there is a lot to it. As for the speed, they need to be fast or their going to be the one on the ground. Their fighting other people who will destroy them for not using a good round house.

[LittleTruckingBozo]

(continued 1) And don't assume I'm ignorant to the Dragon stance. I am not. People have tried to use it in our dojo before. (Normally nob's who don't know better.) and people will chuckle when they see it because they know the person with the dragon stance (Or a simuler stance) has all ready lost.

[LittleTruckingBozo]

(Continued 2) Tell you what ware are you from. If you live near by Arizona I will be glad to take you on in our dojo here. I will pay for the spring fee's I'm not a big guy, come on you can take me. I'm 5'6 170lb my martial art art background is, Kempo (Was a instructor of kempo), go'ru, Jeet Kune Do, brazilian jujitsu, Shinkedo and a

[LittleTruckingBozo]

(continue 3) little aikido. My kicks are are are on average are rated MV2/15 (Highest in my deviation/wight class. It's equal to that of a heavy wight)But I will wear ristrictors upon request. And we can spar to knock out and submission. I don't fight for points. And say 2:00 rounds. You will need to sign paper work and bring proof of insurance.

[Blasfulmous]

I don't live in arizona unfortunately I would of loved to take you up on that offer. Sitting dragon is made as a quick parry so I don't know where you get the idea that it's slow. And I spar 10 minute round. We train harder then is required to have maximum efficientsy during the entire fight. But I do not train in a dojo since I train mostly in chinese martial arts for example my currently mastery lies in pressure points(praying mantis) and double broadsword( wooden to spar with)

[LittleTruckingBozo]

"I don't live in arizona unfortunately I would of loved to take you up on that offer."

Well I still travel a lot Not eavry ware but I do for my company I sold. So were are you located if I swing by and they have a licensed MMA fighter arena I can set it up.

"Sitting dragon is made as a quick parry so I don't know where you get the idea that it's slow"

My experience fighting people using it.

"And I spar 10 minute round."

That would be fine. Many of are underground fights our no rounds at

[LittleTruckingBozo]

(Continued 1)time limits. I go to them most wens days with my friends.

"But I do not train in a dojo since I train mostly in Chinese martial arts for example" You may want to train in something more then just Chinese martial arts. You will be at a saver disadvantage ageist some one like me.

[LittleTruckingBozo]

(Continued 3) So I suggest you learn more. When you are up ageist a MMA fighter, your up ageist fighters who know what we are doing, were not going to fight like you, we are going to apply real world real working techniques. Not the stuff for show, not all the needless moves. We are experts in fighting. In all conditions ageist all opponents styles.

[LittleTruckingBozo]

And here is a grate movie some one is making on kung fu vs MMA fighters

watch?v=ZUybs2Oid3c&NR=1

[Blasfulmous]

Kung fu is my base, I branch to other styles and mix them for effective techniques. I train boxing, muay thai and ninjitsu. I cannot give you my exact location because of my "job"

I live around toronto though. I get carried away, I just don't like to stop. The smell of blood is amazing

[LittleTruckingBozo]

Well you need a mix of and I do mean mix. To give you a idea here is Kung fu ageist a MMA fighter watch?v=JvF03K1-Ia4 fighter. As it stand no one using kung fu has yet to when ageist a MMA most fights end in less then a minuet, unless the MMA fighter is playing with his pray. most other forms take down kong fu easily and play with the so called experts in kung fu. fighters like this video watch?v=215Ai-2dFIU

[LittleTruckingBozo]

"I live around toronto though."

Thats fine. I can work with that.

"I get carried away, I just don't like to stop. The smell of blood is amazing."

How old are you? Thats not what a real fighter would say but a child may say.

[LittleTruckingBozo]

If you go to that first round you will see how fast MMA fighter takes down a Kung fu fighter 31-31-40 sec.

[LittleTruckingBozo]

Here are a couple place in toronto this can happen at.

mississaugaelite

salvosabjj

torontobjj

revmma

They are all MMA training facility or Brazilian jujitsu dojo's that may allow us to do this for a fee. (I can pay for the fee.)

[Blasfulmous]

how old are you? It's starting to bug me that you don't know how to spell. And when I say I love the smell of blood I mean it it's not just some line I picked up from a lame tv show, it just excites me. I sparred a MMA before and it's not that hard to defend a grapple. I found they like to spear you to the ground so I kneed them in the face... I'm 18

[LittleTruckingBozo]

"how old are you? It's starting to bug me that you don't know how to spell."

Well at least you still know what I'm saying and that should not pose a problem I a ring or cage.

"I sparred a MMA before and it's not that hard to defend a grapple."

Really? That means one of two things. 1. The person who said the are a MMA fighter lied or 2. You are lying.

[LittleTruckingBozo]

". I found they like to spear you to the ground so I kneed them in the face... I'm 18"

Yeah you go a head and try that like many others have. I wonder why no one has ever tried That. Well go a head and use it and see if it will really work for you.

[Blasfulmous]

you're ignorant..

watch?v=xQFFpA0C4LU&feature=re­lated

[LittleTruckingBozo]

I'm ignorant really how does your video of some one showing moves make me ignorant? first off its obvusas the guy does not know much. because the guy would have used that cheep move to his advantage. hell that stance weekns him a MMA fighter would have moved his leg behind the other guys and took him down. The guy talking is more of a street fighter and know what appears to be roman wrestling technique and seems to expect the other guy would play by those rules or know vary little.

[LittleTruckingBozo]

Hell they guy seems to think of MMA more like boxing. See that your not aware of this or even what style is being applied I would say you are the one who is ignorant. Search through youtube videos kung fu vs MMA or BJJ and you will see Avery time who wins. The MJJ or the BJJ does. Yes some ware on the net I'm sore someone can find at lest one that would be the opposite. But when it seems every case is for the MMA its hard to deny the facts.

[Blasfulmous]

it's spelled obvious. And sifu is the highest ranking you could be in kung fu. I looked at 4 or 5 videos of bjj vs kung fu just now and saw that they weren't even experienced in real life fighting. When it comes down to it if it was a fight to the death bjj would perish quickly.

[LittleTruckingBozo]

"And sifu is the highest ranking you could be in kung fu."

I said nothing of his rank.

"I looked at 4 or 5 videos of bjj vs kung fu just now and saw that they weren't even experienced in real life fighting."

Really. because some of them a famous fighters they don't use all that stance bullshit because as I said earlier they get read of it vary quick it's not practical. One of the best kong fu fighters entered the octagon and got his ass kicked a few years back If I can find it I will post it

[LittleTruckingBozo]

"When it comes down to it if it was a fight to the death bjj would perish quickly."

What you want to be true does not make something true. But see I wont be going through that area for a few months you can prove me wrong call one of the places I sent you. Video tape your fight with a MAA fighter or a BJJ fighter then up load it and I will be glad to withdraw my claim.

[Blasfulmous]

You obviously have a mental problem taking too many kicks to the head or something. It's hard to talk to someone of your status and I have a fight to go to in an hour. I'll think of you when I take him out. Did I mention my style is close ranged internal strikes? You don't have enough knowledge about the numerous types of kung fu. Internal strikes cause internal bleeding and bruising as well as external which rip flesh, muscle and break bones. That is why it's hard to find a vid on youtube. >

[LittleTruckingBozo]

Of course the actions of a desperate man. resort to personal insults. You are definitely a child. I'm going to go kick some ones but in a hour and I will think of you. What ever. I'm just not buying it.

[Shahids23]

i can say one thing! Ninjas is rogues, thieves and bandits in old 646 AD-1868(samurai time) Japan, and their fight system stands on deadly tricks(staves with poisened arrow, shurikens, many type of powders) and greatly made equipment(many type hooks for fast climbing, gloves with claws, dark masks and clothes for better movement and anti identificatin)! Their live style not close to be honored or gloried! 1 ninja posibly can kill 3 or more guards or samurai's!SO :)

[rasmusxp]

what's up with the music? some kinda folk?

[MOUNTAINOUS]

yes and slight barely visible sinking and rising and power comes from back foot. the block is so much more powerful than block in karate or what you learned in twd. once you figure it out the block is defensive and offinsive at same time as in ichimonji from your hayes books

[ShinobiMystic]

Thanks Master Tew, I've been working on this stepping back and then using my back fist into the fore arm or bicep strike.

This was helpful.

Peace be with you master Tew.

[MOUNTAINOUS]

great kamae. 5 stars

[ShinobiMystic]

Yeah, it is but how do you get power for the strike that accompanies it. I've been watching your video's is it that hip twist?
