Martial arts are a vast sub-culture with different lineages, perspectives and goals. This wiki is our effort to document and discover the hidden links.
Nobody is sponsoring this project, there are no ads or products to sell - We are doing this by concentrating on Ninjutsu while documenting techniques from other combat systems and Martial sports.

Ninjutsu, the core martial art that we practice in Akban, is a traditional mixed martial art, it is eclectic in the best sense: Teachers in our school, Takamazu den (高松伝?), have collected not only techniques but whole systems (Ryu). In AKBAN we have been preserving our Kata while practicing other disciplines that improve our combat skills.

This wiki is expanding and includes thousands of articles and videos that we filmed, edited or wrote ourselves. A group of Akban veterans is always around to mail advice or correct errors. Apply for an Akban-wiki editor position and start.
