Everyday Ninja

In our first everyday ninja interview we are going to be talking with A  Sun, a professional boxer and a upincoming   hip hop artist in the Seattle area. As a Everyday ninja he’s developed a form of boxing passed  along from his Grandfather who was a prolific boxer. A sun explains some of the basics of  his style and how it has helped him not on the streets and in the hip hop  biz.

EDN: First off  i would like to thank  A Sun for taking the time to talk with us today on EDN

A SUN: Its my pleasure thanks for having me!

EDN: Ok so without giving up to many secrets, tell us about Circle boxing.

A SUN: circle boxing is broken down into circles and lines, similar to most martial arts styles dealing with movement and angles , or like in our vast universe how planets orbit the sun , orbit being a term i like to use to describe circle boxing basics.

EDN: please explain the orbit concept which i see as the most important part of CB.

A SUN: your center line is always in the same place , but your body on a whole orbits your opponent , to the right or the left giving you infinite targets offense and evasive movements for defense.

EDN: because your always moving ?

A SUN: Cause your always moving and its hard for your opponents for move with you if he doesn’tknow where you are going , especially the targets to the back of the body , spine liver, back of the neck etc.

EDN: Im guess if one got good at the orbiting it would ne really hard to get hit particularly if you were able to switch directions after  two or three attacks .

A SUN: Infinite possibilities . and every time you move which is “constantly” there arise new targets.

EDN : So where did you learn this method of  hand to hand fighting and are you willing to teach your method.

A SUN: I started training in Seattle  WA in the central district in boxing with my grandfathers friend Wille Briscoe Roe, and  looking at different martial arts with my cousins. It was gonna be called 300 meaning in your head you have to use one hundred percent of your brain, as with you body and spirit.  I am open to teach this style to the right people in the wrong hands like anything could be very dangerous.

EDN: What is one thing that stands out about CB

A SUN: No fixed positions being that you are constantly moving , and when a person fix on your postion they cant hit you .

EDN: Thank you so much to our viewers and ASUN for spending his time for our interview, i think that this is an effective method of self defense that is also straight forward with easy to learn basics making it a great addition to what a warrior or everyday ninja might know already.

there is a level of “kuji in”  training ancient meditation methods used by shaman ,buddhist  monks and later practitioners of ninjutsu that is called RETSU – MASTERY OF TIME AND SPACE this along with eight other meditation methods were utilized to bring power to the ninja. Well its a matter of belief however on a practical sense mastery of time and space is easily attainable.

Speed can beat strength meaning if your attacker is stronger than you its best not to be in the way of his attack . And if your fast enough , even his attack that manages to hit you will be a grazing blow at best . However timing can beat speed. someone with great speed can be thwarted by a person with great time because the speed of the persons attack it not able to line up with the timing of the target.

So when you put the two together you have whats called time and space , how much time does it take to close the gap between attacker and attackee. how fast can you close the gap and you can close it in time enough to hit what your aiming at. No matter what the device is hand, foot ,stick ,bullet there is a speed verses timing factor which should be used to better your outcome in a violent encounter.

The fastest way between two points is often a straight line but if that point is moving its ok to use a curving line to meet that moving point. being completely still and then attacking with great energy can be a good way to put surprise and thus speed on your side , on the other hand moving around your opponent in a constant circle give him less of a target, if you don’t want to get hit use timing that is off and not predictable

when i fight , or practice sparr, i teach to never stand in one place more than 3 seconds , that throws of most types of plans to attack you because they cant calculate where your going to be while at the same time you get to time them and make a well timed and devastating blow to the person hypnotized by your movement

so when you find yourself in a situation whether you facing some one on your level or a person that is strong or faster make you time and space a weapon to even the score .
