KATA DAN’TE

Dance of the Deadly Hands

Ninjitsu has been called the most savage and terrifying martial art known to man. The

Ninja, practitioners of this unholy science, are, without doubt, the most effective and ruthless

fighters the world has ever known. Much of this reputation is based on their skill in battle and

espionage.

All martial arts teach punches and blocks as well as target areas, vital and fatal points of

the body, and so on. The ultimate warrior is not necessarily one who presents flashy techniques

or even a great variety of striking methods. He is the one who prevails.

In ancient times, when the practice of "karate" (Okinawan for “empty hand”) was forbid-

den, and even before that time when the "masters" wished to organize and record their move-

ments, the various means used to inflict fatal blows upon the enemy were strung together into

the practice form known as " kata ."

Kata is a Japanese word meaning, “dance.” Thus, when accompanied by music, martial

artists could practice in public without revealing their art to the uninitiated. Through the elabo-

rate kata method, not only could the Ninja perform all the blocks and punches in combination,

but the need for dull, repetitive drill of only one or two movements was also eliminated. Natu-

rally, this complex exercise required a considerable amount of concentration on the part of the

student. But, that too, was part of the training

In this chapter is presented a specific kata, Kata Dan’te. Dan means "deadly" and Te

means, "hand" So, “Kata Dan’te" would translate as Dance of the Deadly Hands.

Kata Dan’te was created and fostered by Count Juan Raphael Dante , founder of the

American branch of the feared and respected Black Dragon Fighting Society . He selected from

the vicious techniques of the Ninja, those, which were most deadly. Fusing them into the devas-

tating self-defense form practiced today in his honor by all members of the society.

Kata Dan’te employs every major "hand-weapon" of all the Kung Fu and Karate masters.

Furthermore, it strikes every major vital and fatal point on the human body and is designed to

destroy the enemy is the simplest and most efficient manner possible. Prior to the development

of this exercise, these techniques were taught as individual death-blows. A man might spend a

lifetime trying to perfect just one of them.

Kata Dan’te is composed of twenty-seven of the deadliest “iron hand” strikes ever de-

vised by man. Each one of which is guaranteed to kill, cripple, or main any attacker. In order to

defend oneself, one need not spend years practicing nor suffer the indignities of training under

the many brutal “black belts” who now abound in the world, nor disfigure the hands to “turn

them into weapons” or "talons of terror."

In Kata Dan’te, there are no "war toys" to be purchased at inflated prices. No uniforms or

belts to be earned by long years of toil and perspiration. All such tools are fine for those who

wish to follow that Path. But, for most people who are interested in protecting themselves from

muggers, rapists, or killers, all that is required is one hour's study of the practice form, illus-

trated here. Even if you only read this section three times, the information will be implanted in

your brain. And that may be all that is needed to someday save your life.

Members of the Black Dragon Fighting Society are required to perform this exercise in

ten seconds or less. Practice at that speed develops strength and concentration sufficient to

make the strikes effective.

It will also be noted that DOJO Press, in its never-ending quest to provide the finest in in-

structional manuals, has, with this Electronic Book initiated the practice of arranging the full

page photographs of the author in demonstrating this method such that they may be viewed in

"live action" animation simply by flipping the printed pages from under the thumb; by clicking

through the E-book sequence of pages in order, or by clicking on the Animation Link provided:

Keep in mind that Kata Dan’te, as a practice form, requires the Ninja to execute twenty-

seven movements in five seconds. So, by counting to five as the animation plays, enough

frames exist to make the figures move much as they did when Grandmaster Kim performed this

demonstration on South African television and when interviewed for the Good Morning Austra-

lia TV program. [ Ninja Unmasked NTSC Video] This innovation is only one of the many

changes we hope to bring to the publishing industry. No one has done it before in any martial

arts book. But, we are certain it will be 'adopted' by them in short order. [Editor-August 1999]

The

Hidden Hand

Stance

“He who strikes the first blow sets in motion the

pattern of his own destruction.”

Old Ninja Saying

One of the cardinal principles of Karate is to never strike the first blow, but rather to act only in

self-defense. This principle holds true because nothing is ever solved by fighting and you cannot prove

your argument by beating in your enemy’s head. Likewise, when the enemy attacks, he inevitably cre-

ates openings for a devastating counter-attack. Thus, the Three Principles of Self-Defense are: Never

take a hit you don't have to (avoid rather than check); Never strike until there is an opening (patience

and calm confidence); And, when there is an opening strike hard, strike fast, no mercy (for the stakes

are life and death).

Kata Dan’te can ONLY BE USED IN SELF DEFENSE because the entire sequence depends on

the enemy making the first, aggressive, movement which brings him into range of the techniques by his

own free choice and contributes his own momentum to the impact of the strikes. This form represents

the Fire Element in the Ninja Five Element Fist because the action is linear, straight forward and con-

frontational. The Ninja meets the enemy "head-on" in contrast to the Water Fist techniques, which are

used to avoid and encircle the enemy.

The Ninja stands in Mi Ken Dachi (Japanese), for Hidden Hand Stance. Feet shoulder width

apart, knees slightly bent, hands at the waist and eyes fixing the eyes of the enemy. From this position,

it is possible to move in any direction to avoid and attack or even to duck and weave like a boxer. In

this stance, there are no aggressive inclinations. The mind is calm and clear, the body is poised and

well balanced in a relaxed stance of readiness, prepared to react spontaneously to the enemy's attack.

From the enemy posture, it is apparent he will lash out with his right fist. Kata Dan’te can be

used against virtually any technique of this sort, a right cross, right jab, right hook, overhand right or

lunging tackle. The name Hidden Hand Stance is derived from the fact that in ancient times when a

fighter might only be a master of one style or technique, they didn’t want to "give away" or reveal their

planned defense. So they focused all their fear, anger, aggression, etc. into an isometrically tensed right

fist “hand-weapon” and “concealed” it by covering with the left hand As illustrated.
