Unfolding on my monitor, I’m watching the rescue of passengers from US Airways Flight 1549 which crashed into the ice cold Hudson River. FAA and New York Police stated that they did not believe that it was a terrorist act, but instead a flock of birds that got caught in the engine. All reports currently state that there appear to be no deaths and or very seriously injuries.

A lot is being said about the crash, but I am finding myself impressed by the pilot’s quick thinking and expertise. And that in less than four minutes from the crash, a New York ferry was on site and people were climbing out of the plane, onto the wing and then into the ferry. Then many boats, ferries, NYFD and Coast Guard were also helping out. That’s the nature of man; people want to help each other. To the average New Yorker, people matter…. and this is how we show it.

Joe, Glenn, Fred and Don training.

This past Sunday, the Bujinkan New York Dojo was proud to host the 3rd annual Bujinkan Four Winds Seminar. Instruction was lead by Glenn Catania (shidoshi), Fred Feddeck (shidoshi), Don Houle (shidoshi) and joe Maurantonio (judan shidoshi).

Attended by about 21 people from all over the Metro NY/NJ area, the event shared lessons that were to help all Infuse Ninjutsu into their training. Topics included Controlling the Distance, Beyond Fundamentals, Intensity of the Tiger and the Sword of the Dragon.

It was a great time and after the training we all stayed around for pizza and snacks. Thanks to the instructors and the students for making it such a wonderful and insightful time.
