YOOOSH! *Epic spandex suit appears on me. One on you aswell.* ONWARD! 100 LAPS AROUND THE TRAINING GROUNDS, NAO! *Starts running*
Oh and while you do that, tell me, in its essence everything you know about Taijutsu.

"Y-yes sensei!"
I then start running 100 laps around the training grounds, as I am doing these laps I shout out what I know about Taijutsu.
"Taijutsu or otherwise known as Body Technique, is a physical based form of Ninjutsu that doesn't normally require any Taijutsu unless using it in combination with Techniques such as Shadow clones or dat Rock Armor thingy, it gives a boost in strength. Taijutsu is literally the use of the body to perform attacks or defense against their target, it is an Art which isn't easily mastered and comes in many variations such as Freeform (yeeey), this type of Taijutsu is what makes Roleplay good, it's a creative way of fighting someone, though it's not easy and you have to be very detailed in your move to make it right and understandable, you need to be very creative to defeat your opponent as simple punches and kicks aren't enough, you also have to be logical and not jump 40 meters high into the air thinking it's possible even for a shinobi... Many other forms of Taijutsu are Elemental Tai, Kaito's Tai and Eight Inner Gates - Gimme. :0"
After finishing the explanation I continue the rest of my laps around the training grounds.
Ahh yes, wonderful explanation! I presume you meant it is not usually accompanied with Chakra, xD.
As you stated, detail of the move is essential when performing it, to not risk any confusion set onto your opponent, let's try that out shall we.
*Makes a random dummy appear out of thin air*
Come by this dummy once you've completed your laps, and deal a barrage of punches and kicks to certain areas all over the dummy, I want to see your description, doesn't really have to be massive, remember quality over quantity. State which hand, or which leg you use, where it strikes into the dummy and the effect it has.

after finishing my laps I walk over to the Magical Dummy of Kerrah, I put my left leg in, my right leg out, in out in out ...wait sorry. I slide my left leg forward and keep my right leg back, bending the knees slightly and then stepping forward so that my right crosses over to the dummy's right side extending my right fist out and striking the dummies right shoulder which would twist it slightly (jerk back), I bring my right hand back with some force; backfisting the Dummy's cheek as I do so jerking it back. Following this up I step back with my right foot so that my left is forward again, but as soon as my right foot touches the ground I move my left leg up and backwards really quickly, spinning on my right foot and crunching my foot into the Dummy's left cheek with some force, breaking it's head off.
"Just like Lee."
Wonderful explanation xD So let's get phyiscal then.
*Throws you bandages*
Wrap them around your shins, feet, fists and forearms. Get adept with them as they will help you with the recovery part of the training. Then we should be ready to go.
*Summons another magical dummy as I wait for you*
This will be your sparring buddy throughout the training and all moves will be performed on this fella. You can name him if you want to. u.u

"Stop summoning up these dummies, you're making me blush because of your mad wood skills."
I wrap the bandages around my shins and feet first, wrapping them tight but comfortably, I then stand and proceed to do it with my forearms and fists, I clench my fists a couple times trying to break into them by stretching my calve also.
"I'll name him, Shorty."
Shorty huh? Reminds me of someone I know..
Alright then, first task! One of the fundamentals of Taijutsu, an absolute game-decider.
Begin by performing the tiger hand sign, whilst running towards the back of the dummy...
And...
*cue epic music*
Stick it right up the pooper!

"**** that person."
I Hear the epic music and from behind the Dummy I run, I clap my hands together and make the Tiger hand seal, though I keep the Tiger handseal and bring it down to the left side as I get very close to the dummy's behind I bend both my knees pull the Tiger hand seal back and then extend it with great force inbetween the dummies buttocks.
"Oooooooooooowiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiie!!!! My Fingers are stuck ;__;"
*Short screams in agony as he flies off into the distance* Maybe a little bit to the right next time would have been better >_>
Ahh look, Shorty's back, ready for more action! So now, this next move could be a brilliant counter-attack and that is how you're going to approach it with.
*Shorty takes a step with his left leg, so that it is in front of is right, and arms bent at the elbows, fist closed and knuckles pointing outwards, his left hand a bit in front of his right. In a simple motion, he takes another step forward, tough this time with his right, and extends his right arm outwards in an omnidirectional manner, in an attempt to throw a single jab intended to strike your jaw.*
Quick! Dodge his punch by shifting your centre of gravity, bending down on your knees and allowing his fist to pass over your head, then using the momentum gained from your bent knees, push them upwards from the ground whilst clenching your more dominant fist, taking advantage of Shorty's posture which allows an open space around his chest area, use said fist to deliver a simple yet effective punch dead centre onto his chest, sending him staggering backwards.

"It's like getting a Tutorial in the middle of War"
-Thinks back to KotOR and gets punches straight in the face by the dummy...-

I nod with a serious look on my face as the punch is being made I shift my centre of gravity, bending down my knees so that the punch flies over my head, because of the momentum gained by bending both my knees it allows me to push off the ground, forward straight into the dummy and that is what I do. Though instead of going 'in' to the dummy I bring my left arm back bending the elbow so it's in a V shape, clenching my fist and then thrusting it forward into Shorty's chest, making him stagger backwards, I do all that in one swift movement.
"HA! Yeah Science *****!"
LOL
*Shorty places both of his hands onto his chest as he staggers backwards, bending his stomach in, momentarily exposing his face as he deals with the damage dealt to him*
Don't let him rest! Take advantage of all the time you have! Let's use his Posture towards your advantage. Begin by simply running towards him, and as you draw near I want you to jump in a diagonally upwards fashion straight towards Shorty, just before you jump make sure that your more dominant leg is placed in front of your less dominant leg, push off with the latter whilst simultaneously extending the former outwards, dealing a simple but brilliant kick straight towards Shorty's face, the push of course giving you great aid with exerting greater force onto his face.

I Nod after my sensei explains in such a tutorial like way, even though a lot had time had passed after the explanation had been fully made shorty was still recovering. I run towards the Dummy and as I get close I step in front with my left leg, my right behind and I jump off of left and bring my right forward as I rise upwards towards my target in a diagonal fashion, the leg I brought infront curves around from the right and kicks Shorty across the Jaw area, making him spin.
"Shinkuu Tatsumaki!!!!"
Heh, I made that up U_U
*Shorty's jaw suddenly turns into metal, hurting your foot as it connects with it*
Not bad u.u But try it again, though it can be simple and straight forward, those attacks always seem to be the best. Just jump up straight and allow the wind to connect your foot with his face, oh and for a hint; try shouting Dynamic Entry as loud as you can when you do it this time.

After a minute or so of rolling around in pain, howling out whilst holding my foot, I get up and dust myself off. I then run towards Shorty once again placing my right leg onto the floor when I'm much close and then using that foot I leap off the ground and swing my left leg in front, holding my left arm out over the top as I fly towards Shorty's face, right leg tucked underneath my butt and my right hand in a fist pressed against my waist.
"Dynamic Entryyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!"
My foot connects with the dummy's face and sends it flying, I land where the dummy was, left leg infront, right behind and I laugh out loud
"HA-HA-HA!"
THE YOUTH IS WITHIN YOU! LET IT OUUUUUUUUUUUUUUT!
*Shorty falls to the ground, whereafter getting up but feeling extremely dizzy, hands hanging down their sides and head banging to his sides*
You seemed to put some work onto him, no time to rest! See this next technique is actually quite decent, because it doesn't really depend itself on the brutality of Taijutsu, but rather the elegant aspect of it. How the simplest movement can be the most effective given the right consequences, so run towards Shorty and duck down as you approach within arm length from him, as you have ducked down spin on your axis in a counter clockwise motion whilst extending your left leg outwards, using your right leg bent at the knee as a support to help you balance your centre of gravity during the motion of your spin. Your left leg will connect with Shorty's lower body, just below the knee, and the simple momentum of your leg will cause his legs to trip up and result in him falling down onto his back.
The kick doesn't rely to deal a lot of damage, the main goal is to throw your opponent off balance, but that's the beauty of it. The opportunities that arise from the situation are endless, you can follow on with a surprise attack, stop him in his attack due to him falling down etc.

"OKAY SENSEI!"
I Run towards the Dummy as it gets back up and when I get near I turn slightly to the left and kneel down on my right leg, the heel of my right foot pressed against my backside and the right knee stuck out, as I did this I extended my left leg all the way out to the side as I spin around to the left pushing off the ground with my hands; I hit Short's right leg and sweep it off the ground along with his left, back on his butt again I push up with my right leg and bring my left leg up too so that I stand. Finishing Shorty off as Soon as I stand up I lift my right leg over Shorty's neck and stomp it down, applying great pressure and keeping him on the floor, I then place both my fists on the side of my hips and look upwards at the sky.
"I Am Taijutsu Man!"
*Crowd cheers* WHAT AN AMAZING DISPLAY!!!
Last D rank YEAH LET'S DO IT!
Run towards Shorty with all you got, so he believes that your intended attack seems to be deadly, and jump off the ground with your more dominant leg, in the process of doing so swing your less dominant leg in the opposite arc to its respective side (so if you're using your left leg, swing it to the right) To imitate a high kick, but the kick is nothing more than a phase, something that will, in a battle, catch your opponent off guard and cause his evasive margin to be heavily limited upon seeing the kick, let the kick pass by the air and using the momentum gained from the kick spin on your own axis so that your body twists in the general direction of the kick; and here is when you utilize the leg you jumped from, when your back is facing Shorty, extend said leg backwards to deal a simple mid-kick, albeit simple it's extremely powerful. Straight into the rib-cage of Shorty, sending him crashing backwards.

Description: This technique is a good example of how even simple taijutsu can become a pre-eminently destructive, lethal technique.

The goal is to throw the enemy off balance, and deal damage to the lower half of their body.

I run at Shorty again, dat determined look slapped on my face. I jump off my right foot once more and swing my left leg around to the right, it isn't a strong kick as it is a bluff, Shorty sees through the kick and dodges by move to his right, because of the way I kicked I have turned around, Shorty coming up behind me to try and get in a sneaky blow. BUT, because this was my plan all along, the right leg tucked under my body, swings down and out, my body twists to face Short as the leg plunges into his rib, sending him onto his ass.
I land on both my feet and stand there, both hands on hips.
"HYAAAAA!"
~~~~#aaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAND WE'RE FINISHED WITH THE D RANKS YEAAAAAAAAH!!!!
So then, time for my second favourite ''technique'' if you'd call it that. It is essentially again, just a simple kick, but it's the timing to use this in the most perfect situation which can just devastate your opponent.
*Shorty lunges forward, throwing his right fist towards the centre of your face, attempting to hit your nose*
Ever played the game limbo? I imagine your body to be something like that, so as Shorty's punch is incoming, bend your knees and your back at the same time, not stopping the momentum from his fist but rather, allowing it to simply move above your head, and at the same time extend your right leg in an upwards direction. Your leg will shoot upwards, going above your head and striking Shorty's chin, knocking him high into the air. The main power behind this attack is allowing yourself to fall backwards, by amassing your body as a sort of spring you can amplify your power and flexibility, enabling your kick to go at a faster rate, and effectively hit your opponent when he least expects it.

So originally the high kick is little more than a feint.
