Taihenjutsu-ukemi, rolling with the sword By DuskB4Dawn - 10-22-2011 11:36 PM
=========
Hi everyone. its been a whille since I posted here.
Ive still been training with sensei Parker at Jyuku Tatsu Ninjutsu Dojo in Melbourne weekly and have been as interested if not more interested in ninjutsu as when I first started a year ago.
So I have been known to be abit eccentric when it comes to ninjutsu. and whille I do take my ninjutsu training very seriously I have a reputation amongst my fellow students to be over interested in fantasy ninja.
this has not seemed to dull my interest in ninjutsu and I have been looking to further my knowledge of Tai Sabaki movements. and evasive monouvers within ninjutsu such as rolling and Tumbling. I have even started taking classes in Gymnastics and Parkour to supplement my ninjutsu training.
Now your averadge person would be perfectly content to learn to do rolling proficiently. I have often wondered if you could do these rolls with weapons or would it work while wearing armour or equipment. hay I told you I was alittle accentric. And I don't want to bother my Sensei with endless questions
Thus I have come here to ask the ninjutsu community about this and if anyone else has done anything like this and trainind to do rolls with weoponry?
I have actually found that Togakure Ryu cover this in the formal curriculum I think its called Taihenjutsu-ukemi. what I want to know is how is this at all possible if you are wearing a saya? also alot of other longer weoponry like yari this would not be possible. perhaps jo or bokken you can do ukemi? how would one go about learning rolling with a sword?
And another thing that I notice with rolling is that if you are carring alot of equipment that rolling is much harder if not impossible. you cant have bags or equipment attacheched to the body and be able to roll. and I imagine that rolling in armour would be even harder. thus things like rolling and tumbling movements are unnecessary. why would they bother to teach things like rolls and back handspring escapes if it wasn't necessary?
