About The Nakano Dojo of Ninjitsu
About The Dojo | Courage For Life
The Nakano Dojo of Ninjitsu is unlike most martial arts schools
today. It’s not about learning stylized forms, earned colored
belts, or engaging in tournaments. It’s about functional,
practical, realistic self defense…applying traditional
principles to real world confrontations. We teach you
how to think, observe, act and react to the unexpected.
Our goal is to turn you into a quick-thinking, confident
person, capable of defusing dangerous situations and disarming,
disabling, or escaping all manner of assailants….just like
a Ninja.

Named after the first Spy School in modern Japanese history,
The Nakano Dojo trains students in Koga-Ryu Ninjitsu/ The Way of the Winds
System. This unique system of combat and self defense training was established
by Professor Ronald Duncan.
Professor Ronald Duncan is widely acknowledged as the Father
of American Ninjitsu. He is one of the pioneers of martial arts in America.
Professor Duncan is also well known as a close-quarter combat instructor
to law enforcement and military forces, The Nakano Dojo is honored to
have Professor Duncan as a Special Guest Instructor.

The Nakano School was founded by two long time students of Professor
Duncan.
Renshi Steven Mauner and Renshi Eric Mauner have been involved
in the martial arts for over 25 years.
Renshi Steven Mauner and Renshi Eric Mauner were the youngest
2nd Degree Black Belts ever promoted by Hanshi Adolfo Ennever, Director
of the American Federation of Martial Arts.
Since that time, they have earned 4th degree Black Belts
in Aiki-Jujtsu, Kindai Gakko Ryu, Kobujitsu, and Ninjitsu under the instruction
of Professor Ronald Duncan. They have been associated with Professor Duncan
for almost 20 years.
Renshi Steven Mauner and Renshi Eric Mauner founded the
Nakano Dojo to continue the legacy of Professor Duncan’s system of practical
self defense and proportional response to confrontation.
