Here's just some lower level forms from Shinobi style. My footwork is awful but I blame the jeans that kept wanting to slip off my hips. Also I got pretty run down as the video progresses. I basically practiced everything off camera before trying to show the moves.

Some of the moves I only showed in the video because they are apart of these early forms but I never practice them. Many of them are actually pretty difficult to perfect and have no real function outside of the kata. Needless to say there's a few moves I perform pretty badly. If you wanna see the parts of the form I actually practice and have some skill at skip to about 5:30 in the video.

There's more to come so keep an eye out, if this interests you. This was just a first attempt so I basically winged it. I really didn't put much effort into making this video outside of, y'know, the physical effort.

Oh and, btw, 2:11 is not a mistake. That's called a side-sash or side-step. The idea being that you just threw or dropped your weapon in hand and you're getting ready to block an incoming attack. Stupid and ridiculous looking but apart of the form. Although, to be honest, I did crack my knee pretty hard later on. Always in the freakin knees man. I suppose I should be glad it's not the balls x_x
