01 // Who he is
Back to map ↑The martial artist who turned movement into a science.
Rick Tew ran away to California as a boy. He fell for ninjitsu as a teenager, was on television soon after, and opened his first dojo. Then he moved to Europe to build his own system, and has run live-in martial arts programs for more than 25 years in the US, Latin America, Europe and Asia. Thirty years in, the mission is still simple: help you get a Black Belt in what you do.
02 // Train the body
Back to map ↑RTMS, Rick Tew's Martial Science.
A martial science, not a style. Modern American Ninjitsu crossed with MMA, built to teach movement, not moves. The system changes daily and the student stays self-powered, never just a copy of the master.
5 ranking levels
A complete, ranked path to instructor status.
Movement, not moves
Train the movement and the skill outlives the technique.
The Personal Security Course
Mind, body, technique. In that order.
03 // Train the mind
Back to map ↑WinJitsu, the mental martial art.
"Win" plus "Jitsu" is the True Art of Winning. It trains the mind to beat its own negative Ninja: fear, doubt, stress and laziness. Written down as the five-book "Be a Black Belt in What You Do" series, one book per finger of the hand. Together they make a fist to break through, and a grip to hang on.

Back to map ↑Coaching and the BLAST workshop.
Rick is a Tony Robbins Certified Strategic Intervention Coach. The BLAST workshop is edutainment, comedy plus martial arts plus mental arts, that summarizes the WinJitsu system. He has spoken at HP, TU Delft, the University of Rotterdam and more. For every paid event, one person from a local charity attends free: give a BLAST to have a BLAST.
