Founder School Kayten Ryu - Ancient Warriors Mugei Mumei no Jutsu, or rather... No name no art. An art that creates itself, free from conventions or traditions, that express its essence in the ancient way, walking the way of free living, thinking. Spirit essence, free to act in the complete respect of persons and things. Walking with the companions the ancient path of the warrior, mystical man and excellent fighter if it is necessary, for his/her sense of responsibility, conscience, knowledge and respect of the Sacred Rules. Ready to lower in the obscurity, to climb in full light without remaining blinded in both cases. A lot of time later this path would have been known as the Shadow Path or the Way of Silence. This path will never have name and never be an organized art: it will have to remain always a free and long living thing, without confinements and without human rules that reduces it to a “tight path”. The Black Shadows Group of the Kayten ryu attends lessons in the dojo and in external places, in the green of the valleys that surround Turin, precisely in the valleys of Lanzo, where it organizes meetings with accessible prices and fees, dedicated to all students and instructors in any season. It also promotes interdisciplinary stages at international level to make possible for every student to constantly progress in his/her study in all the varied arts.

A good ancient warrrior had to know how to race his “alternative”, and to know how to exploit to the maximum one his intellect and his technique. It learns to fight and to not win for being superior to your neighbor but to know yourself well. He who practice this art has to know absolutely himself: his weapons are his intellect and his techniques. The weapons are considered temporary helps, and as such to trust them and to think that can resolve the situations, it means to take big risks. The spirit is calm anymore, the technique is precise anymore. To win an adversary violence is not needed, but to learn the art of the separation or rather “to see all and nothing.” It is necessary to understand the thing it doesn't concern yourself as, and to avoid emotional involvements. This way you can let also evolve in your favor a negative situation. Dark the techniques are raw less you have probability to win. Care about putting you in safe today, to win there is always time. Always act as if you are alone. The study of the 5 elements will indicate to you the path always you have to cross. Even if you had to leave the road, try to hold you near to it and never lose it of sight. The obstacles have to be removed, avoiding them you will find again them on the street of return. Preserves a little beat of your fear, it will make you wise. Do more experiences that you are able, even from the meaningless things you draw great teachings. The degrees serve only to inform your adversary if you are an interesting target or not. The mistake that you have made today avoid to make again tomorrow, or the lead on your shoulders will be double. Be always yourself and not copy from the others, since these will similar to you but they will be never you. When you fight in training with one companion of yours, try to see in him yourself, because if you will be hard, he/she will answer to your hits hardly, if you will use lightness you will be repaid with this. When you take a hit not to try to return him, you would take other twenty ones to give one: if the hit has entered in your guard, there are two reasons, the first one you have been wrong, the second, your companion was better than you. A lot of times walking along the hard path of the knowledge there will rise doubts or uncertainties, but it is a path and it is normal that it is in this way, walking on and on you will reach the peak, and you can help the others.
