Uncover the history, tools and training methods of Ninja in a Live Online Experience!
Dear kopral,
Odawara Tourism Association is giving you the chance to uncover all things Ninja with their Online Ninja Experience (ONE)! Streaming live from the Ninja Hall on the historic grounds of Odawara Castle, this event is accessible for both English and Japanese speakers.
Speaking live from the Ninja Hall at Odawara Castle, genuine Ninjutsu Sensei Horoshi Jinjawa will separate fact from fiction. He'll explain exactly what training a Ninja would go through – and how their incredible skills would be used to gather information and avoid conflict. Experts will also share their knowledge to connect viewers with the real world of Ninjutsu and its practitioners.
Afterwards, you'll be introduced to vital practices, from specialised breathing techniques and codes of behaviour to meditation and movement methods. Jinkawa Sensei will also be presenting the Shinobi Rokugu, a set of tools which would be essential in the work of the Fuma Ninja clan.
Jinkawa Sensei is a well-known scholar and practitioner of the Ninja arts, and has been working as an ambassador of the field for many years, communicating with both students and media projects.
A Virtual Tour in a Historical City
The image of Ninja has become almost mythical both abroad and in Japan, but many of the films and TV which feature these characters contain real historical tools, weapons and examples of Ninjutsu.
Around 500 years ago Odawara Castle was a center of power for the Hojo Clan, and the Fuma Ninja Clan was vital in helping them extend their rule to the Tokyo area and beyond. Even today, many businesses and festivals' roots extend back to this era of samurai and warring states. Not only will you gain a rich insight into the rich history of the castle, but you'll discover how the area has now begun bringing the history, training and philosophy of Ninja back to life.
