Bujinkan Shinmyoken Dojo | New York: Are You Too Old To Study The Martial Arts?

Are You Too Old To Study The Martial Arts?

Are you too old to study the martial arts?

No.

What gave you that idea?

Perhaps some hesitation or self-doubt?

Don't doubt yourself!

No worries, the correct teacher will help you on your martial arts journey.

Regardless of age, we all start the martial arts where we are, and with what we can do. We build on what we can do, which takes care of what we can’t do.

We start with that assesement and start with a routine of stretching, general health, and developing physical fitness, right now and over time getting you to be the best place that we can.

As we study the martial arts, we progress in a natural manner, and in understanding the laws of martial arts movement- distance, timing, rhythm, and balance, age no longer becomes important.

Regardless of your age, imagine where you can be in one short year from now.

Start your martial arts journey right now, this week, today…

…otherwise we will just be having this conversation again this time next year.

See you in the dojo!

The aim of the Bujinkan Shinmyoken Dojo (school of the life giving sword) is to understand nature and the movement of being zero through taijutsu- martial ways of using the body. The school exists to create and transmit this feeling and method through the experience of isshi soden.

Located in Westchester New York, the Bujinkan Shinmyoken Dojo is a martial arts training group founded in 2005 with the aim of coming together as martial arts friends to study the Japanese martial arts of Masaaki Hatsumi through the movement lessons of the Bujinkan Dojo.

Training is supervised by Fred Feddeck who has been studying Bujinkan Budo Taijutsu since 1993.

Classes are held on Saturday Mornings from 9-11 AM at a local park in Yonkers New York easily accessible by car, train, and bus. Additional training times are held for workshops and seminars each quarter.

Questions, feedback, and inquiries may be directed to the group here: bujinkanshinmyoken@gmail.com.
