The Shihan Returns

Ninja training again today, and our Shihan was back from Japan with some new ideas that he was keen to share.

After twenty minutes of relentless and excruciating pain in parts of my body that are never supposed to be exposed to pain I was still clueless. We were supposed to experience a water and fire feeling. The closest I got to this was the strangely comforting sensation of wetting myself as he attacked all nine of my "gates" and simultaneously ripped out at least seven of my nerve centres.

I feel violated.
