I'm interested in Konigun Ninjutsu

[Razor_EX]

I was wandering if Konigun Ninjutsu was right for me. I'm 14, about 5'8" and about 180-190lbs (I was like 220 then I tried the atkin's diet, it works but I hate it) I don't have the best eye-sight but I can see just right and I have pretty good accuracy even at night, I can't really run long distances but in close-quarters I can dodge and block really good (my uncle taught me boxing) I can punch fast and kick hard I have (atleast) descent skill and I have always been interested in martial arts. I read an article on Kenjutsu on the konigun ninjutsu site an I like their sword-stances and technique but I don't know if I'd really be suitable for a style like that.

See here (http://www.e-budo.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?s=&threadid=18519) for a detailed discussion on that particular art. They've managed to get themselves into e-budo's bad budo section, so I'd be cautious at best.

Edit for real advice:

The best way to decide what's good for you, or what you'd suit is to go and try it out. Most schools will allow you to either watch or participate in a lesson at no cost, so shop around until you find something you like. Don't necessarily jump into the first school you find, but if you like it give it a trial run. You can always quite if it doesn't work out (as long as you haven't singed a 3 year contract or anything)

oh well..they don' have a dojo anywhere near where I live but I e-maled them and they said that they've been getting alot of requests from around Muncie and that they were thinking of putting a camp there first then if they got enough people they'd put apermanent dojo there.

I read alot into their sword style and I itexplans alot about how they move in and attack such things and it seamed good. I just wated to know if that would be good for me because my friend is at one of the taekwondo (did I spell that wrong?) dojos in muncie and I considered going there, but I wanted more weapons training. I know that there is no "perfect" style because all styles use different attacking and defending techniques and focus on different things and ue different stances, all of which have defensive and offensive strengths and weaknesses and I think using someone's weakness against them would probably ensure an easier(yet still honorable) victory, that is why I looked for some form of ninjutsu because of their efficiency and fluidity. Don't laug at me for asking this but is what Kenshin Himoura used a real style?(from rurouni kenshin)

ninjutsu or ninpo is a good all round style if you are dedicated. Make sure you dont choose a fake dojo, check out its lineage etc before you join to make sure its legitimate:)

As for your rurouni kenshin question, its taken from a few arts but I think it's based on battojutsu (A sword art of fast drawing).

thanks, I just wanting to know if it'd be good and apparently it is so I guess I'll wait until the get a temporary camp or permanent dojo here and I'll check that out.
