Received my copy and it is fantastic! Kudos to Duncan Stewart for presenting an original approach to presenting the art. What better way than to see it from the eyes of a child? It is obvious how hard they work and the quality of instruction they receive. Thank you for sharing this information with the community!

“The Ninjutsu Training Manual” by Duncan Stewart is a visually impressive masterpiece that has left a lasting impression on me. The book is a treasure trove of knowledge for anyone interested in the world of ninjutsu. It begins with a thorough coverage of etiquette, setting the tone for the training that follows.
What sets this book apart is its landscape format, which, though unconventional, greatly enhances the visual experience. The imagery is not only excellent but also plays a pivotal role in conveying the fundamental stances and techniques. The book’s layout allows for a deep dive into the art of ninjutsu, with a focus on practicality.
It’s evident that a tremendous amount of effort and care went into creating this manual. The visual aids are a testament to the dedication and precision that Duncan Stewart and Bujinkan Tasmania Dojo put into this work. What’s truly remarkable is how these visuals make the complex world of ninjutsu accessible. They reduce the need for extensive written explanations, making the material easy to grasp.
In a world where information can be overwhelming, “The Ninjutsu Training Manual” stands out as a concise yet comprehensive guide. I commend Duncan Stewart and the Bujinkan Tasmania Dojo for their dedication to preserving and sharing this ancient art. This book is not just appreciated; it’s a valuable asset for both beginners and experienced practitioners. If you’re passionate about ninjutsu, this manual is a must-have for your collection.

I started training in my 20's. If I had this book back then training would have been a lot easier. I always practiced at home but worried "was I practicing correctly". This book has techniques I never was taught until my Dan ranks. The illustrations are spot on and the book is easy to follow.
