If you're looking to get the most out of your ninja training, and you want your ninjutsu techniques to be as powerful, effective, and efficient as possible, then you cannot rely on only one type of training. Mastery in ninjutsu, as in any other endeavor, should be more about skill proficiency, then merely collecting a lot of techniques.

So, it is much more productive to look at training areas, rather than simply focus on given techniques or kata ('prearranged examples for successfully resolving a fight or attack situation'). Here is a basic outline of the four training areas, or types of training, that I give to my own personal students - in order to give them the greatest chance for reaching the level of proficiency possible with their ninjutsu techniques. Please note that the following list is not in order of importance. Each area should be seen much like a pillar holding up the roof of a fortress or castle. ...
