This is the most bad-ass video I have ever seen. It's a school that teaches you how to be a Ninja.... or to translate into English, it's a school that teaches you how to be a bad-ass!

Well, it's pretty cool, but I think they're training gymnasts - not bad asses. When I lived in Texas, one of the Aikido Dojos I trained at happened to be in a Gymnastics center, so we saw a lot of that (although it was mainly 6 year old girls - so it didn't look quite so bad ass!).

From what I've seen over the years, the bad asses are the guys why just smile, center and wait while you do the Ninja stuff. They're the ones you REALLY don't want to mess with :->

@Boyan,

That's some pretty fun stuff... why? Because I'm a ninja!

@Peter,

Yeah, 6 year old girls - not as bad-ass.... but this raises an interesting question: If I were a ninja, what would I tell people my "day job" was. I think gymnast is the perfect cover; that way no one would suspect that all of my crazy skills are meant for ninja-ing.
