THE CORRECT ANSWER: Ninjutsu

Ninjutsu brings together all the tactics, combat methods and techniques practiced by ninjas in feudal Japan. Far from being a simple striking or wrestling discipline, this complete martial art encompasses infiltration, camouflage, survival and the handling of a wide range of traditional weapons.Practitioners learned to use emblematic instruments such as the shuriken, the short katana or the kusarigama, a weighted chain linked to a sickle. Historically developed to meet the needs for clandestine actions against conventional armies, Ninjutsu favors constant adaptation, discretion and rapid neutralization of the adversary.Now taught through several traditional schools, it combines gripping techniques, targeted percussion and complex psychological strategies, offering a fascinating insight into Japanese martial history and the tactical know-how of these shadowy warriors.
