Block & Parry Ninjutsu Techniques

Video Transcript

"On behalf of Expert Village, my name is Anthony Lucas of the Budjinkan Koteki Dojo in New York City. Today I'm going to show beginning techniques of ninjitsu. The next technique we're going to do is from the kino hapo which is a combination of eight techniques, three striking techniques and five grappling. So the first one we'll do is ichimonjikadr. So from ichimonjikadr I'm in Komi, Meredith comes with a punch. As she comes in, I step off line, and as I step off line, I will hit Meredith's arm, and as I hit her arm I will come with the shuto to the side of her neck. Okay, I come back to Komi. So again, just a quick detail, Meredith is in Komi, and I'm in Komi, Meredith comes to punch my face, I step off, I hit her wrist -- when I hit her wrist I'm using my hip to do the spin rotation -- and I come in with a strike to the neck and come back. So, how it looks in real-time. Meredith will come in Komi, I will come here, strike, and I will just step in and hit. Okay, let's look at this from a variation. So Meredith will come in, I will step here, block the punch, and come in and strike."
