Essential Skills For Someone Learning Ninjutsu
There are two skills that is essential for your ninja training. The first skill is how to use and throw a shuriken. The shuriken was rarely used as a lethal weapon. Many times the shuriken is used to divert an opponents attention or as a deterrent. The second skill we cover in this article for the training ninja is the skill of being invisible. The training ninja must learn how to remain hidden and noiseless while moving towards the target.
How to Use a Ninja Throwing Star
One of the most important aspects of becoming a ninja is learning how to properly use the tools of the trade. Throwing stars, or Shuriken are an important part of the ninja artform. Before you begin, it is vital to realize that these throwing stars are illegal in most states and you must never practice with one against a human being. Injuries are all too common and may be fatal. These are lethal weapons and are not designed for "fun."
Build a proper target made out of plywood or drywall. This target should have a firm base and be strong enough to withstand several practice throws. Place the target at least ten feet away from you when you are first beginning. It will take time to develop the skills necessary to reach your target and hit it accurately. Practice in an area where there is no chance of hurting someone else or yourself.
Begin by holding the star vertically in one hand. Place it between your thumb and index finger. Using a forward throwing motion, hurl the star at your target, snapping your wrist as you let the star go. Keep practicing until you are consistently hitting your target then move it further away. In time, you will be a master of the Shuriken.
How to Master the Art of Becoming Invisible
Although we focus on the sword and throwing stars as being the primary weapons of a ninja, that is not the case. Their primary weapon is stealth - the ability to appear unexpectedly. This is part of why ninjas were so successful. Not only did they have the ability to practice stealth at will, but this ability engendered fear in the hearts of their opponents. Never knowing when or where an opponent will appear puts people on edge, builds up their fear and gives you the extra edge you need in a fight.
To learn how to practice stealth you must first master your inner self. You need to become disciplined and learn the true path of the ninja. Once you have harnessed your inner motivations then you can begin the outward practice of stealth. Practice breathing properly and making no sound. Learn how to walk quietly, placing your feet carefully.
It takes time to learn how to practice stealth but with patience you too can learn how to move soundlessly. Control your breathing and control your movements and master this until you become capable of moving without sound. This will give you that element of surprise that only stealth can accomplish.
