Handling the “Holes” in Your Combat Postures | Warrior’s Whiteboard Wednesday


As your progress in your Ninjutsu (or any other martial art) – especially if you’re concerned about real-world self-defense – you’re going to have to face the reality that all of your kamae or dachi (combat postures) have holes and inherent weaknesses in them.

During this lesson, we take a look at how to handle, exploit, and use those same “holes” to manage a self-defense situation so they can’t be used against us, but also in how to use them to control and manipulate your attacker’s perceptions, choices, and actions.
