Military Enlistment and Guest Writers
To the readers and members of WayOfNinja.com, it has been my privilege to have you here. On the 29th of July, I will be enlisting into the Singapore military. Serving the military for the minimum period of 1 year and 10 months is mandatory for all male citizens of my country.
During this period, I only have the weekends free. Hence, you may not see many updates here. Therefore, I am appealing to everyone to help out if you can.
I’ve decided to invite guest writers who are either martial arts, meditation or Parkour practitioners. If you would like to contribute original articles for Way Of Ninja and write well, please contact me at logen[@]wayofninja[.]com with the subject ‘Guest Writer’. Remove the square brackets.
Please continue to visit WayOfNinja in my absence. I have made arrangements with my web host for the website to continue running.

Attacking Muggers Flee From Rescue Ninjas
Five ninjas rescued a student from the muggers who were assaulting him. The German student who was in Australia for an exchange program was attacked in a dimly lit alley.
Soto Sensei and Ninja Trainees
Fortunately for the victim, there was a Ninjutsu school close by and the Sensei had seen the attack. He promptly got his students to rescue the victim. The moment those criminals saw the ninja warriors in black training gi, they fled. The Ninjutsu sensei, Kaylan Soto, was quoted in the news saying, “You should have seen their faces when they saw us in ninja gear coming toward them.”.
The Sydney police has already two of the three muggers.
News sources:
- BBC News
- Yahoo News (as taken from Reuters and Sydney Morning Herald newspaper)
This is a genuine news story, and I’ve provided the direct links to the news sources above.
There are two points of the news I’d like to talk about.
One, what was the victim doing in a dark alley? As a foreign student, you are naturally ignorant about the locale of the country you visit. Common sense would dictate that a dark alley (especially to a foreigner) is potentially dangerous.
My point to you is to be ever aware of your surroundings and avoid potentially dangerous situations. Always appeal to your intuition and instinct.
Two, it is great to know that the ninjutsu school was proactive in their way of ninja. They took prompt action to rescue an innocent passerby. This decisive action prevented further harm to the victim. And decisiveness is an important trait of a ninja. The victim was obviously lucky that the muggers were equally ignorant and chose to attack the victim near a Ninjutsu school.
That’s all. Persevere in you way of the ninja! Ganbatte!

In the article about training your mind with Kuji-in, we learnt a little about Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP). Way Of Ninja is providing a copy of Richard Butler’s free ebook on NLP.
Please read it and determine if there are any techniques you can incorporate in mind-training.

Halloween Is Sneaking Towards Us Ninjas
Halloween is around the corner. As much as I know this isn’t related to your training, we’ve got to have fun sometimes.
I’m curious as to what my fellow W.O.N. members will be doing on that day. What will you guys be dressing up as?
Having a few Japanese costumes and cosplay costumes, I’ll probably dress up as a gothic samurai or something along those lines. The above picture was me in Japanese costume for last year’s Halloween cosplay. I was a character out of my own story and I managed to get the majority of my classmates to join me.
If you’d like to know where I got the costume from, I have one thing to say… Ebay is my bestfriend. Haha. You can still make it in time for Halloween if you look for your costume on Ebay now.

The Opening of W.O.N Blog
I’ve decided to create a blog category for WayOfNinja. This allows me to write news pertaining to W.O.N. and other random commentaries related to ninjas, but don’t strictly fit into the main topics (e.g. Combat, Stealth, etc.).
Link to Way Of Ninja
To readers of W.O.N., if you have a website of your own or a social networking profile (Myspace, Facebook, etc.) please link to Way Of Ninja.
Appealing for Financial Help
As the founder of W.O.N., I bear the costs of maintaining W.O.N. with my own money and it is burning a hole in my pocket. I hope to gain support and help by fellow readers of W.O.N.. What then can you do to help?
You can sponsor W.O.N. by placing your advertisement on WayOfNinja.com for a minimum of $0.10 a day. Even if you have no website to advertise, why not place an ad to your profile on W.O.N. social network.
Instead of buying ninja items at other places, you can support W.O.N. by buying items through our store that links to Ebay, our recommended products or our recommended affiliates. Not only can you get great deals at unbelievably low prices, a small percentage of the sales will be given to W.O.N. to support our opperations. These affiliates and our store ensures that you have the equipment for your training.
If you wish to donate money to W.O.N., please contact me ( logen[at]logishempire[dot]com). It will no doubt help in defraying a part of our costs.
I thank you for your support. Ganbatte on your way of ninja!
