We are moving this huge martial arts site from the ninjutsu.co.il to akban.org
There are many reasons for this move but the main one is our rapid growth from Ninjutsu/ Budo taijutsu web site into a more comprehensive martial arts website.
We'll be having a redirect service working in the next few hours so if you are being nostalgic and click the old urls you'll be redirected. Ah, technology...

Mr. K. writes in the AKBAN journal about the Winning effect in fights.
Why do we tend to lose against some opponents while others do not do their best when fighting us?
Backed by scientific study the perspective in human beings seems much more complicated then in mice, but is it?

After much debate we decided on a very minimalistic sticker, no high flying kicks, no Japanese flag, no martial arts themes - just black AKBAN.
You can get one from your instructor. Hurry, while they last.

Mr. S. writes in the AKBAN journal about sanctifying arguments.
Holding pluralism and criticism as pinnacles of culture is a documented Jewish tradition and one that was independently adopted by various modern disciplines.
Using it to document and validate martial art's techniques is the core of the AKBAN project.

The combat savvy and experienced community of AKBAN has opened up its videos and knowledge for all martial arts styles, Ninjutsu and Budo Taijutsu included.

Martial arts techniques, hundreds of throws, kicks and punches plus weapon kata are arranged in an easy order, for you to learn and be a better fighter.

Effective and accurate training in martial arts is our goal. Even though we think it is not recommended to learn online exclusively, our immense, free, AKBAN-wiki can add to your practice and give better, more effective skills in self defense and martial arts.

Training in Ninjutsu and other martial arts styles for many years has taught us this secret Ninja lore, we know: "There is no substitute for a qualified teacher and a Dojo." And we know this too: "Only by continually learning, practicing and exchanging we can be better human beings, better warriors."

Use this as a reference to gauge your own performance, or simply take a look at the foundations of a style different from your own.

Care to join and tour with us? You are most welcomed, our friend in martial arts.
