Proper traditional Ninjutsu that I'm now doing is very similar but with the added bonus of traditional japanese etiquette, japanese sayings plus traditional Ninja weapons which I haven't done for a couple of years now but it felt sooo good picking up a bokken and hanbo again! I suppose that you don't really appreciate something until you no longer have it.

maybe i'm wrong as i'm no expert..... but isn't it true that "real" ninjutsu died out hundreds of years ago?
