Join us for our centennial episode of KUDEN Radio - the podcast for you - the serious martial artist, self-defense and personal development-minded practioner!

During this episode I'll be sharing some hard-won, but extremely unpopular, lessons regarding how my teachers; both Hatsumi-Soke and other Japanese Master-teachers; treated different types of students based on the way each approached training...and how this affected the way I run my own dojo.

Like many students, I started my training in the martial arts by enrolling in a program that was close and convenient. But, based on my needs and focus, this turned into a journey that would take me through many different styles and systems.

During this episode, I'll be sharing my journey, and how I came to choose the life mastery and personal combat system we all know as Ninjutsu. Hope you'll join me!

From the very beginning of my training and over the course of several years, I had to come to grips with the fact that, very often, I was getting in my own way when it came to my own training and ability to get this art and its life-changing benefits.

During this episode we'll be exploring one very powerful driver, and unseen force, that could be causing many well-meaning and sincere students to actually be self-sabotaging their own efforts!

The sheer number of lessons and skill sets passed by my teacher, Soke Hatsumi, but overlooked by the majority of students these days are staggering to say the least.

During this episode I'll be discussing the Ninja's "sanmitsu" (triple secrets of success) that I was introduced to, why EVERYONE is successful, and how you can use ancient, proven process to achieve greater personal power and success.

With everything this art has to offer, it has never ceased to amaze me how willing most people are to focus on so little of it.

During this episode of KUDEN! I'll be sharing not only the training focus, but also the 3 aspects of the testing requirements I was held to as I worked to master the full scope and application of this powerful martial and life mastery system!

During this episode we'll be looking at a serious problem; whether in a person's training, with their job, relationships, or whatever; that we cannot allow to derail us from our intended purpose.

I know it's a significant holiday, and you may not be able to make it live, but if you love, value, and respect yourself and your grander vision...you won't miss this episode!

During this episode we'll be looking at the idea of what it means to be a "warrior", historically, as well as some of the insights I've gained over the years from my teachers - including the grandmaster - about the concepts of "class" and being a budoka and Ninja.

Careful...this one just may ruffle some cocky "feathers" of some who think they've got their own "warrior" shit together!

During this episode, I'll be sharing some core secrets of the ancient masters that I learned from my teachers-
lessons that have been validated through discoveries in modern brain science.

These critical pieces explain why some people are successful and have the life they want, and how
you can tap into them to have the success you want and deserve!

During this episode we'll be looking at a part of the Ninja no Hachimon (8 Gates of Authentic Traditional Ninja Training), that points to breaking free from the limited, martial arts-only mentality that most students and instructors are trapped in.

THIS is the part of the powerful, life-changing system that everyone needs, but virtually NO ONE is practicing!

During this episode we'll be exploring the concepts of the Warrior as a person of action, and what that means in how we think, speak, move through, and engage with the world.

I'll also be sharing a framework of 4 Levels of Action and why most people either fall or fall WAY short of the goal they say they're trying to achieve.
