NEJI GEKKEN RYU “Spiraling combative edge Martial Arts Family”

When you join you become a respected member of our martial arts family. If you have a bunch of experience already great, you will learn / move up in rank faster.

If you have no experience great, we hold each other up; helping each and everyone along the way.

If you are a member and you make a least a class a week you will learn and advance. Falcaro Sensei is fond of saying “I have no bad students, each of my students are impressive or on their way to becoming great.” We as a martial family make sure of that.

Your level of inclusion is up to you. Take one class a week when you can, or switch your classes up. If you are crazy, take every class at every dojo every day of the week (That would be quite hard). What ever you want, we are here.

When you train in martial arts, you put your trust into your Sensei’s hands. This trust includes lending your body up for instructional purposes. In skilled hands, when you’re joint-locked, choked, thrown, punched and kicked, you immediately become comfortable; having witnessed firsthand what could have happened to you and how the skill of your instructor prevented your injury.

Training with classmates this comfortably and trust usually takes a bit longer to attain. The beginner is not quick to trust the other students, just because they have been training longer. The more accomplished student is certainly not quick to lend his body to the toiling of a novice.

This process is not just about getting to know each others movements. You eventually share a great deal of yourself with your classmates. They learn your hang ups, fears, and frustrations. They share your desires, drive, and passion for martial study. They are there to lend new perspective, pushing you to go further faster, and share first hand in your successes.

You learn to draw off of each other’s strengths and support each other through forging out weakness. Culture, race, sex... these things fall by the waste-side. What you find is brotherhood.

Brotherhood is something that happens as a result of each individual’s own dedication to attaining proficiency in the art. The dedication is seen in making class so that you may learn and grow. A more selfless side quickly evolves as you find yourself also making classes so that your training partner has you to train with. We see in the drive to earn rank to represent their growth. Added, is a sense of responsibility your training partners to attain rank; to display a return on a successful investment for the efforts put forth by those who worked in helping you learn the material.
