What do you mean by "ninja Skills"? Do you mean the skills and techniques used by historical ninja? Then no it would not because they only way to get that (that we can verify) would be through Takamatsu to the X-kans. Do you mean a similar skills set to the historical ninja? If so then maybe. The list looks pretty good but add gymnastics and maybe a few others.

krav maga, defendos are not taijutsu. so i guess maybe similar but not the same as ninjutsu skills.

I think with a year's worth of training, trying to master that list, you'd have trouble getting out of your own way.

NO.
You'd have an interesting and hopefully useful set of skills. But the only way to have "ninjutsu" skills is to study and train in Ninjutsu under a qualified instructor.

But if he wants to learn real ninj3r stuff, he could join either the CIA or the UK version MI5.

In my opinion, gain all the knowledge you can, then differentiate from there..

umm... guys...
He is 24, lists his rank as "Soke" and is asking how he can become a ninja... Is it really worth trying to give a rational answer at this point?

LETS GET THIS CLEAR I AM JOKING WITH THE SOKE THING JUST LOOK AT THE STYLE.:idunno: BUT IT MIGHT BE A STYLE ONEDAY IF I GET GOOD ADVICE.

While I am sure your intentions are good, "good advice" is not going to make you a ninja. Neither is just training in the skills you listed. You want to learn Ninjutsu? Learn from a qualified teacher. Train and train. In 50 years, think about starting your own style/ryu whatever you want to call it. But doing "ninja like" things, doesn't make it Ninjutsu.

WEll if you are really seroius about learning to be a ninj3r, then you best learn how not to lose in the WWE ring to a stockbroker :uhyeah:
The only way you can get good advice is to find instruction, wise up and stop playing ninj3rz.
