What Are Ninjutsu Classes Like?

I asked this once before but I was really unsatisfied by the answers.





Basically, what%26#039;s a typical day like? Thanks for any help.|||Hi there





A basic class should be similar in structure to a traditional jujutsu class or Aikido class. They consist of the following





1. Ukemi gata and kiten (Breakfalling and rolling)


2. Taihen jutsu (sword avoidance)


3. Kihon waza consisting of sanshin and kihon happo. (basic forms)


4. Taijutsu and henka using various weapons of the happo hiken.


5. Traditional Ryu ha school kata from the 9 schools. The theme is determined by the soke every year. This years school is togakure ryu. So any extra training should be from this school and its weapons.


6. Anything else the shidoshi thinks would be useful to cover.





heres a rough list as to what there is to learn

That%26#039;s about it really.





Its not black masks and throwing stars. Sorry but thats for TV ninjas and not shinobi.





Best wishes
