Kunoichi do the same training and additionally to specific techniques dedicated only to women. These arts were designed not only for survival but also for eneryday life. Taijutsu was also essential for Ninja to perform their remarkable techniques, using assorted Ninja weapons and tools. For each mission the Ninja were used different equimpent and Kunoichi had the possibility to use personal belongings as weapons (like umbrella, fan etc). Taijutsu body arts are strong and pliant: they can respond to any kind of change and can be applied to any situation. One feauture which is important to the training of Ninpo Taijutsu for Ninja and Kunoichi is that "SENTE"! The rule of "SENTE"  is not allowed to attack without a serious reason: in other words, you never strike the first blow. Also Ninja and Kunoichi who had trained fully in Taijutsu would only need to shed another person's blood in exceptional circumstances. The principals also of martial arts, Budo, don't allow to a Budoga (martial artist) who is violent and aggressive to continue the training of martial arts. The profile of "SENTE" for a Budoga, Ninja, Kunoichi who is in the path of the martial arts, is to not exhibit his ego regarding his knowledge about martial arts. That is prohibited for a Ninja or Kunoichi! Secondly, a Budoga Ninja Kunoichi must be a kind and virtuous person and ready to help and protect the weak people without second thought. Finally, must try to improve every day, the Ninpo-Ninjutsu arts and the personal way of living. On the contrary should never be lazy, give up the objectives and the dreams of lifetime and should avoid to use the martial arts for evil purposes!...
