Sekigahara Battle Study -- Winning Before the Fight
A detailed analysis of the Battle of Sekigahara, 1600. How I spent months before the battle buying defections, planting doubts, and ensuring that half the enemy army would betray their commander on the field. When the fight started, the outcome was already decided. Tip: The battle is the last resort of the strategist. If you must fight, you have already failed at something.
Script Coverage & Notes -- Professional Feedback
Send me your screenplay (120 pages max). I'll read it, write detailed notes on structure, character, and dialogue, and return a 3-page coverage report. I've read over 2,000 screenplays for Cinemobile Systems and another 2,000 for the Royal Swedish Film Institute. I know what works.
The Paradigm Workshop -- 3-Act Structure Masterclass
The workshop that changed screenwriting worldwide. In four hours, I break down the three-act structure using your favorite films. You'll never watch a movie the same way again. Bring a film you love and I'll show you its skeleton. Tip: The first ten pages are everything -- that's where the reader decides to keep going or toss your script.
Tanegashima Matchlock Musket (Replica)
Japanese matchlock musket, based on Portuguese originals that arrived in 1543 -- the year I was born. Within 50 years, Japan had more firearms than any country in Europe. At Sekigahara, guns decided the battle. This replica fires black powder blanks for demonstration.
Myrmidon Combat Training -- Elite Warrior Conditioning
Training as the Myrmidons trained. Spear, sword, shield, and body conditioning that would make Olympians weep. The Myrmidons were the most feared unit at Troy -- not because of numbers but because every single warrior was exceptional. Tip: An elite unit is not fifty good fighters. It is fifty fighters who trust each other with their lives.
Rage Management for Warriors -- Channel the Fire
My rage nearly lost the war for the Greeks. When I withdrew, the Trojans almost burned the ships. When I returned, I was unstoppable but reckless. This workshop teaches how to use anger as fuel without letting it drive. Tip: The warrior who fights in cold blood wins. The warrior who fights in hot blood fights well but makes mistakes that cost lives.
Film Fight Choreography Session
Learn to design fight scenes for camera. Real combat is ugly. Screen combat is poetry. I'll show you camera angles, timing, and how to sell a punch that misses by six inches. Every fight tells a story -- what's yours?
Philosophy of Martial Arts Workshop -- Small Group
Small group session (max 6). We discuss Tao Te Ching, Krishnamurti, and the connection between combat and self-knowledge. Tip: Knowing is not enough, you must apply. Willing is not enough, you must do. Bring a notebook.
The Art of Patience -- Strategic Waiting Workshop
How to win by waiting. When to act and when to hold. Reading the political landscape, building position without exposing yourself, striking at the decisive moment. Nobunaga seized the rice cake, Hideyoshi cooked it, I ate it. Tip: If you cannot wait, you cannot win. The patient warrior outlasts the bold one.
Nunchaku Set (Training Foam + Competition Wood)
Foam pair for learning, hardwood pair for performance. I made these famous but they're actually an Okinawan farming tool. Start with the foam. Trust me.
Wing Chun Wooden Dummy (Mook Jong)
Traditional wooden dummy for Wing Chun training. 108 movements. It teaches you angles, deflection, and structure. The dummy doesn't lie -- if your form is wrong, your wrists will tell you.
Plains War Shield (Buffalo Hide, Painted)
Thick buffalo hide shield, heat-shrunk and painted with personal medicine symbols. At proper thickness, buffalo hide stops arrows and can deflect a musket ball at distance. The painting is not decoration -- it is protection medicine. This is a training replica. Respect the tradition.
