Tachi & Nagare – The flow of the Tachi, 25the July 2010

The 流れ(flow, nagare) is more than a movement. It is above all an attitude in Life, and this is exactly what I have been learning during the last 26 years with Hatsumi sensei. We train to suppress the thinking and analytical process in our actions. This is the secret of Hatsumi sensei’s budô.

In a real fight if you are (body + mind + intention + analysis) you are dead. Fighting is about reacting without intention 無想 (musô), and not about having a perfect body shape, a fantastic mind, and a lot of intentions!

Our first objective is to find this unity and instead of being three (body, mind and consciousness) we have to become ONE. This unity is possibly achieved by training thoroughly the fundamentals and the basics of the bujinkan. We will do so during this dayseminar by training the tachi.
