I%26#039;m curious to know the different martial arts out there.|||Lol...
the only martial arts school out of Japan that teaches legitimate ninjutsu is the Bujinkan.....and even then, we study more Samurai-ryuha combat waza over ninjutsu-waza.
(Waza = technique)
The Bujinkan has nine seperate schools : 6 of which are Samurai combat schools, the other 3 are Ninjutsu combat or espionage/information gathering schools (the two that are espionage/info based are by no means loosely taught due to obvious reasons.)
Gyokko-ryū Kosshijutsu (玉虎流骨指術)
Kotō-ryū Koppōjutsu (虎倒流骨法術)
Shinden Fudō-ryū Dakentaijutsu (神伝不動流打拳体術)
Takagi Yōshin-ryū Jūtaijutsu (高木揚心流柔体術)
Kuki Shinden-ryū Happō Bikenjutsu (九鬼神伝流八法秘剣術)
Gikan-ryū Koppōjutsu (義鑑流骨法術)
Togakure-ryū Ninpō (戸隠流忍法)
Gyokushin-ryū Ninpō (玉心流忍法)
Kumogakure-ryū Ninpō (雲隠流忍法)
We work on a system loosely titled %26#039;taijutsu...which simply means body skill%26#039; or in laymans terms : fighting with the entire body in dynamic motion.....very much unlike the %26quot;rock %26#039;em sock %26#039;em robot%26#039; type of body motion ala TKD or Karate.
We work with throwing, locking, strikes, chokes, nerve and bone specific attacks, weapons work from absolutely ancient to modern (handguns for example), and a lot of energy work as well.
A complete listing of all skills within Togakure Ryu for example :
Seishin-teki kyōyō (spiritual refinement)
Taijutsu (unarmed combat)
Kyudo (archery)
Ninja ken (sword fighting)
Bōjutsu (stick and staff fighting)
Shurikenjutsu (throwing blades)
Sōjutsu (spear fighting)
Naginatajutsu (naginata fighting)
Kusarigamajutsu (chain weapons)
Kayakujutsu (fire and explosives)
Hensōjutsu (disguise and impersonation)
Shinobi-iri (Stealth and Infiltration methods)
Bajutsu (Horsemanship)
Sui-ren (Training in Water)
Bōryaku (Military Strategy)
Chōhō (Espionage)
Intonjutsu (Escaping and Concealment)
Tenmon (Meteorology)
Chi-mon (Geography)
It%26#039;s more, much more, than just fighting and stroking your ego.
Now, to support what a number of others have told you....there are a LOT of flakes, frauds and charlatans that rode the 1980%26#039;s %26quot;ninja boom%26quot; and came out with some seriously....ahem, interesting interpretations.....Ashida Kim (real name : Christopher Hunter), and Frank Dux for example.
They taught Karate in a black hooded gi and called it ninjitsu.....what a shame....and sadly, flakes like Haha Lung fell on THEIR coattails, like they weren%26#039;t bad enough.
Be very cautious from whom you study, and even amongst the Bujinkan....watch a few classes, I%26#039;ve seen a lot of bad habits and stupidity out of our people too.|||I seriously doubt it! The unarmed combat section on the syllabus is not very good, so it isn%26#039;t much use unless you plan on carrying your katana and shuriken around with you!|||Ninjitsu is the art of Assasins. To be invisable to kill silently, and not be detected, by the use of fight training,gymnastics, strength training, and knowledge of poisins, and other deceptive methods.|||I would look to see what schools are in your area and go and visit them. Watch some classes and they may even give you a free lesson to see if you like it. Try a REAL martial art like Tae-Kwon-Do, Karate, Aikido, Judo, Jujitsu, Kung-Fu.
Stay away from the supposed arts that say they cn teach you to be invisible and walk on water.|||Honestly any Martial Art is good to learn for the lessons it teaches you.
True Ninjitsu has been lost for many generations, not that was ever wholly an art into itself anyway, most %26quot;ninjas%26quot; were cross trained in more than one art, and each clan had sort of it%26#039;s own style.
What is out now is a bastardized form of Ninjitsu and Ninpo, it can be fun to learn, it can be effective, but it is hard to find a place that has someone truly of merit teaching it. It is probably the number one place you find frauds. People like Akita Kim and the like. People who claim to be grand ninja masters and so on, but are really just average martial artists that threw in a few Ninja like things for flair.
Most places you take Ninjitsu, Ninjutsu, Ninpo and the like you are going to learn some really cool stuff, some of it very effective, some of it not so much. But probably all really enjoyable, and all will leave you walking away feeling like you are training to be a killing machine.
Unfortunately, Ninjitsu places are usually the biggest frauds out there, it is the one martial art that you will find the most bad apples, because everyone wants to be a ninja, but there is no true criteria for such a thing, or expertise in it, and frankly there never really was. Ninjas back in the day were the equivalent of covert ops groups now. Effective at stealth, espionage, and killing, but not through some mystical martial art, but use of good sound tactical principles, effective weaponry, and good physical shape.
So good luck with a pursuit in it, find a place you enjoy and try it out, just watch out for any %26quot;secret%26quot; type of thing. %26quot;Well no, you can%26#039;t watch a class, this art is so deadly I can%26#039;t go around showing it for free%26quot; and the like. Anyone who claims to actually make you a ninja, or that is super secretive about it, or claims to have killed people when he was an active assassin or some crap, is pretty much b.s.
But it can be a good Martial Art to learn because it holds the same principles that all Martial Arts hold, and it should be enjoyable.|||no such thing as ninjutsu!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!... does not exist|||ninjitsu is so freakin hard to learn infact the only way to learn it is to be taken into a ninjas clan when youre a small child because it takes 30 or more years to master|||I don%26#039;t kno wat ninijutsi.But i%26#039;m a black belt in Tae know kwon do and Shadow Khan.Ninijutsu soundz like a mix between jutsu %26amp;Nina stuff(shadow khan).i%26#039;ll try it though|||No! It%26#039;s totally outdate and there%26#039;s very little evidence a such style exist. If you want to learn similar thing, go into Intelligent agent or military Special Force.|||ninjutsu is usually not a good martial art. I am not saying that the ninja of lore could not kick some tail. i am sure they could. But I do not believe that you get real ninja training anywhere now a days. Even if you did, do you think it is practical to learn how to scale walls, kill people from behind and hang from ceilings for three days.
Try something more practical. Also be aware that there are many fighting sports out there who claim to be martial art systems and they are not.
My best advice is for you to research old questions related to finding a school. Visit all the schools in your area. try out some free classes and follow your instincts.|||no clue but sounds cool|||Ninjutsu is a collection of many disciplines
learning one of them is a whole martil art discipline
your not trying to learn all of them right
Seishin-teki kyōyō (spiritual refinement)
Taijutsu (unarmed combat)
Kyudo (archery)
Ninja ken (sword fighting)
Bōjutsu (stick and staff fighting)
Shurikenjutsu (throwing blades)
Sōjutsu (spear fighting)
Naginatajutsu (naginata fighting)
Kusarigamajutsu (chain weapons)
Kayakujutsu (fire and explosives)
Hensōjutsu (disguise and impersonation)

Sui-ren (Training in Water)
Bōryaku (Military Strategy)
Chōhō (Espionage)
Intonjutsu (Escaping and Concealment)
Tenmon (Meteorology)
Chi-mon (Geography)|||any school of ninjustu that has people who admit that they are ninja or even admit that th school is a ninja school is fake. the version of %26quot;ninjutsu%26quot; taught by these %26quot;masters%26quot; is a bunch of BS.
