EVADING A BLADE-THRUST TO THE BODY
The weapon-thrust to the body is a swift attack, and the response must be as swift. Most crucial of all is to LIMIT THE OPPONENT'S OPTIONS - the ninja ALWAYS, if possible evades towards the back of his foe, because this limits the options of his enemy. The number of attacks that can be made by an armed adversary in the forward-arcs of the body are many - the same enemy will not be able to attack as effectively if you are behind him. Therefore remember that when an opponent uses a straight thrust with a weapon, you must use your evasion to move behind him.
When evading, move smoothly and easily, using normal stepping movements. Move swiftly, yes - but ALSO, move in a natural, relaxed manner.
Awareness is key to a good evasion. But true awareness does not only rely upon the eyes, but upon correctly reading the very mind of your enemy. There are specific battle-meditations that allow you to put yourself into the right mental state to correctly be able to read your foes, and these will be taught to you when you have mastered the correct physical movements of these evasions. First train the body in the mechanics of combat - then train the mind in mastery of combat. This is the way of the Gyokku Ninja.
