We mainly do Kempo Jujutsu outdoors

we leave Kali and Kickboxing for the dojo -
kb can't really be done on grass
and the sticks make a lot of noise and attract attention

we have more opportunity and latitude to go to the ground and use it

we have also been doing a lot of Ninpo Taijutsu this year, which overlays the Kempo Jujutsu

it also gives us lots of rolling on the ground

it also gives us the opportunity to use longer weapons such as sword and spear and projectile weapons such as shuriken

it also gives us the opportunity to look at and discuss "ninja" onshin - movement, concealment and escape techniques and tactics in their original environment

this is something you might want to look at a bit more on outdoor courses
