Is your self defence any good?

I do not know we have a new organisation in the netherlands from an ex ninja master from the kuroi ninjitsu. It is seemingly a relatively new organisation and does not teach ninjitsu as such anymore, Arie van den Akker is seeming to his own way and starts to develop his own stuff,

I want to take a look but with anyone who develops his own stuff it is possible ,that it is a partial art.

To much standing techniques and not so much wrestling stuff is no good.

I will tell more after ive bin there!

No sure I understand. Everything was developed by somebody wasn't it?

Yess not sure. Own made styles can be very good, but many times it is crap. This arie van den akker guy is controversial because he is connected to ashida kim ninjitsu.

every person is not a Bruce Lee. most of times own made techniques will end in hospital. to me my self defense training did a great change. I must admit that I never used it in the streets, but better than fighting., it build my self confidence, ability to work quickly, patience and many more qualities .. That is why I still train my self.

Oh I forgot to tell you, I follow Jeet-Kwan-Do

Jeet-Kwan-Do

is that an off shoot of Jeet Kune Do?

no that's how we spell it here real one is Jeet Kune Do. we at my country spell it as it pronounces according to our language. sorry about that

Thanks karl
