In feudal Japan, the Ninja were mercenaries, trained in the martial arts, espionage and assassination. Ninjitsu, their mysterious and secret system of fighting, was developed for a single purpose-to prevail over any enemy. Based on Sun Tzu’s military classic The Art of War this deadly art enabled the peasants of Iga and Koga prefectures to live a calm and peaceful life, outside the restrictions and oppression of ancient warlords and bandits until 1520 a.d. when the Shogun Tokagawa outlawed the practice and sent an army of 20,000 men to destroy the Ninja clans.

They were driven from the battlefield. Many perished or were captured and put to death. But, the Art of Invisibility was not lost. It merely vanished. Hidden from sight in mystery schools all over the world, it survived and was handed down from one generation to the next. The Secrets of the Ninja lived on, constantly growing and evolving, transforming itself from a dark art of death into Budo, a way of enlightenment.

The first duty of any martial art is to provide its students with techniques that will allow them to defend themselves, not just from opponents their own size, but from any attacker. For this purpose, the Ninja have a simple and effective technique-run away!

Ninjitsu is not about fighting. It is about self-improvement, about becoming a better person every day so we can help others. To do that, we must survive. It takes two people to make a fight. If you refuse to fight, there is no war. To accomplish this the Ninja teach three basic skills: Throwing Sand in the Enemy’s Eyes so that you become Invisible; the Japanese Sleeperhold that can render an opponent unconscious; and the power to Restore him to Life. By these means are the Ninja empowered to prevail against any opponent, regardless of size, physical strength or even superior numbers. Now you too can learn the secrets and have the legendary power of the Ninja, men who could fight or disappear!

Ninjitsu is the only non-violent martial art known to man. We don’t want to hurt anyone. But, neither we will allow anyone harm us or those we love and have sworn to protect. We don’t want to be kings or masters. We only want to practice our art and enjoy our lives. But, we will not tolerate oppression, slavery or bigotry. We have always fought against injustice and crime. We have always been among you. Watching and waiting, down through the centuries, until it was time for Way to be made clear. Now you too can become part of this most ancient and honorable tradition. Men of peace, humble as the dust; who can fight like ten tigers. Be one of the Few, the Chosen, the Ninja...
