Schools

Ninkokuo dōjō practices Bujinkan Budo Taijutsu. 

The Bujinkan organization incorporates the teachings of nine martial arts lineages known as ryuuha or schools.

• Kukishinden ryuu Happou Bikenjutsu (九鬼神伝流八法秘剣術)
• Shinden Fudo ryuu Dakentaijutsu (神伝不動流打拳体術)
• Takagi Yoshin ryuu Juutaijutsu (高木揚心流柔体術)
• Gyokko ryuu Kosshijutsu (玉虎流骨指術)
• Koto ryuu Koppoujutsu (虎倒流骨法術)
• Gikan ryuu Koppoujutsu (義鑑流骨法術)
• Togakure ryuu Ninpou Taijutsu (戸隠流忍法体術)
• Gyokushin ryuu Ninpou (玉心流忍法)
• Kumogakure ryuu Ninpou (雲隠流忍法)

Kukishinden, Shinden Fudo, and Takagi Yoshin ryuu, incorporate many weapon and hand to hand combat techniques used by the samurai. Dakentaijutsu and Juutaijutsu are just fancy ways of saying unarmed fighting techniques

 (aka. juujutsu). Kukishinden ryuu covers many weapons including the sword, spear, naginata, and many others.

Gyokko, Koto, and Gikan ryuu also contain many combat techniques. Kosshijutsu refers to muscle breaking techniques (strikes, blows, and throws designed to damage muscle and soft tissue) and Koppoujutsu refers to bone breaking techniques. 

Togakure, Gyokushin, and Kumogakure ryuu are ninjutsu schools concerned more with strategy, tactics, information gathering, and espionage. Although these schools do have combat techniques, they mostly comprise of techniques and concepts for evasion and escape rather then pure combat and battle.

Together these 9 schools create a holistic training curriculum that cover many aspects of Japanese martial arts and give a student a wide variety of tools when it comes to combat and self-defense.

The Bujinkan also incorporates schools and concepts outside of the core 9 schools.
