Did you know that there are eighteen different types of martial arts? I didn't in fact I didn't even realize martial arts was based off of an everyday thing. For example a Ninja or someone who practiced ninjutsu, they aren't ambushers. They were actually being taught to be a spy. Nothing like what we see in movies nowadays when they have two sais in both hand doing all sorts of cool things with them. Yeah the people who right about them may have the general idea of them being stealthy but in reality it seems as if the "Ninja's" we write and hear about today are a mixed breed of martial arts which was also a common thing back then.
