Hatchie-Ryu Ninpo: An Overview

Ninja; the mysterious shadow warriors of feudal Japan... Long have they occupied the realm of myth and fantasy. Their powers of stealth and martial prowess are the stuff of legend... ... but where does fact end and myth begin? The truth is, ninja mystique is nothing new, and centuries of sensationalism have obfuscated the reality, but no more. There are schools active today which claim to teach the ancient arts of ninjutsu- and some actually do so very realistically, though not all skills would be practical or legal for use in the modern age. Sadly, there are many more still who seek only to capitalize on the myth. Hatchie-Ryu Ninpo is a whole different kind of school. There is no false lineage, no grandiose claims, just the product of a lifetime of struggle and a desire to spare others the burden of learning the same lessons the hard way. It was only by happenstance that the author realized this very unique skill set fell neatly into what would constitute a modern ninja school. The skills are real, and battle-tested. They have literally saved the author's life on more than one occasion. They range from scientific fighting methods, to wilderness survival skills, to natural medicine and ancient philosophy. This book is an introduction to a practical, modern martial art form; part autobiography, part dissertation, and unlike anything ever written before. Hatchie-Ryu makes ninjutsu an accessible reality for young and old alike in today's world.
