History
“Ninjutsu was developed by groups of people mainly from the Iga Province and Kōka, Shiga of Japan.Throughout history the shinobi have been seen as assassins, scouts and spies.
They are mainly noted for their use of stealth and deception. They have been associated in the public imagination with activities that are considered criminal by modern standards. Throughout history many different schools (ryū) have taught their unique versions of ninjutsu.
“An example of these is the Togakure-ryū. This ryū was developed after a defeated samurai warrior called Daisuke Togakure escaped to the region of Iga. Later he came in contact with the warrior-monk Kain Doshi who taught him a new way of viewing life and the means of survival (ninjutsu).”
Ninjutsu was developed as a collection of fundamental survivalist techniques in the warring state of feudal Japan”.
