Question

Info on Ninjitsu:
-Where to train
-Is it dangerous
-Does it really teach you what ninjas did
-Anything else you know about it

Answer 1

There are no legitimate martial arts schools of "ninjitsu".

If you want legitimate training in martial arts, first, you must pull your head out of your ***. Only after you have done that, approach the closest school of Aikido in your community.

Answer 2

Ninjitsu was the art of elemental attacks used by ninjas hence the name. An example of ninjitsu would be attacking with a sword but you would usually say an attacking name sometimes associated with an animal. It, like other martial arts can be as deadly as you want it to be. It probably won't teach you on what ninja's did unless if you get a history lesson when you train. If you're a 13-year old boy who wants to kick *** then i suggest stick with a local martial arts club, you'll still learn. Ninjitsu would involve training with a sword along with other weapons, and it's not necessarily something you would want to learn. Stuff like this would probably be very limited to people if it was even offered at all.

Answer 3

Ninjas were assassins of an empire that no longer exists. You can learn from people who think they're ninjas. I suggest a more honorable path... the way of the samurai. Look up Toshishiro Obata in Long Beach. He's a real Samurai and makes the best swords.
I agree with Panacea. Humble yourself or you will be toast.

Answer 4

Ninjutsu (忍術) is a collection of techniques originally practiced for espionage purposes. It includes methods of gathering information, non-detection, avoidance, and misdirection techniques. Ninjutsu can also involve training in disguise, escape, concealment, archery, medicine, and explosives.

Practitioners of ninjutsu have been seen as assassins for hire, and have been associated in the public imagination with other activities which are considered criminal by modern standards. Even though it was influenced by Chinese spying techniques and the strategic principles of Sun Tzu, ninjutsu is believed by its adherents to be of Japanese origin. One version is that the basis of ninjutsu was taught to a Japanese household who fled to the mountains after losing a battle. There they mixed with a varied lot of people including the descendants of refugees who had fled China. Later, the skills were developed over 300 years to create ninjutsu.

Although the popular view is that ninjutsu is the art of secrecy or stealth, actual practitioners consider it to mean the art of enduring - enduring all of life's hardships. The character nin carries both these meanings, and others.

In the modern world the word ninjutsu usually refers to a certain system (Bujinkan Budo Taijutsu) of self defense, and its offshoots. It is true that ninjutsu has a long and myth-filled history, but today almost anyone is allowed to practice modern ninjutsu. As one makes progress in ninjutsu the system gets more sophisticated, and one might realize that the system contains more than fighting skills. To avoid misunderstandings, "ninjutsu" should just refer to a specific branch of Japanese martial arts, unless it is being used in a historical sense

Answer 5

You should take a trip to Iga-Ueno, Japan. They have a Ninja Museum there if you want to learn more about them, then you can learn and understand how they lived and what they did. I concur with the above, you should take up a real martial art like kendo, karate, or aikido first, then decide if it is for you.
