About your Host
Konichiwa, I am Jinkawa Hiroshi. I help represent the world of the Fuma ninja for the Odawara Tourism Board. I have my own ninjutsu training school in the mountains outside of Tokyo and have welcomed hundreds of guests to learn about shinobi and practice ninjutsu together.
I am humbled to have you take the time to learn more about the world of the ninja. It was actually quite different from the image we all might have. It is also my goal to share traditional techniques that are just as useful to us in the modern world.
I look forward to meeting and sharing this piece of Japanese tradition and culture with the world.
