THE NINJA AND THE SECRETS OF THEIR MARTIAL ARTS

The most misunderstood martial art, ninjutsu, shrouded in mystery to protect it from the eyes of the uninitiated, reveals in this book the secrets that make it unique. The Ninjas we see climbing trees, hanging from the ceiling and disarming samurai share knowledge with us. Art and technique, psychological training, stealth movement, special tools and weapons, becoming invisible are what make Ninjas almost magical and surrounded by the respect and belief that wants them invincible and humbles them, for many, to supernatural beings. A FEW WORDS ABOUT THE AUTHOR What sets Stephen K. Hayes apart from other writers in the genre is that he was the first American to be accepted as a personal student of Togakure-ri, the thirty-fourth head of the ninjutsu tradition. The author currently lives in Ohio and according to those in the know he is "the father of American ninjutsu", a member of the Black Belt Hall of Fame and the originator of a system of self-defense with a combination of mind and body (To-Shin-Do). In this book he searches for the source of the true events that built the legend of the Ninja. Also published by OXY: Jeet Kun Do, Sharp Thoughts, The Tao of Kung Fu, The Art of Body Expression, all based on thoughts and personal notes of Bruce Lee.
