"Hmmm... you're Keji? Ok. Seems you're my new student. Welcome to Taijutsu training!"
He plopped down on the grass, sitting cross legged.
"Tell me a little about yourself as a ninja, and why you want to learn how to kick and punch in a fancy way!"

"I'm just an ordinary guy who wants to protect the people around him. Lost a lot of things when I was younger and so I don't want it ot happen again. As for taijutsu I always enjoyed using my hands and legs to fight and often when my opponents permit do so. I want to learn taijutsu so I can augment my punches and kicks without needing to boost them with a chakra nature and to complete my knowledge of basic combat styles."
Nodding, Souji continued after Keji was done talking.
"Alright. What can you tell me about Taijutsu, and how it differs from other combat styles? Think about its essence and what you need to do to perform it."

"Unlike other combat styles taijutsu doesn't focus on elemental, weapon, or illusion attacks; but focuses more on the use of ones own body. Free form taijutsu doesn't require chakra to use but can come up short when facing chakra based attacks. Chakra enhanced tai is in some way more efficient then nin or gen as it takes little to know time to use a move and instead of weaving hand seals most moves are easily transitioned into by simple poses and slight body movements. I one wishes they caa use taijutsu to conserve chakra or combine it with nin jutsu to create devestating attacks and defenses."
Thinking to himself "hope that is close to what he wanted to hear."
"Good... good. Yes, Taijutsu in its simplest form is dependent on your physical attributes rather than your chakra reserves. However, there are some styles of taijutsu that do indeed utilize chakra to enhance their capabilities. Can you think of some specific ones?

"Off the top of my head I can name two and a potential third. There is the Hyuga clans Gentle Fist, the Kaguya clans nintai, and possible the Hidden Leafs Eight Inner Gates technique."
"Ok, then let's compare Gentle Fist and the Eight Inner Gates. I guess you can say they're two nearly opposite styles in terms of their execution. Gentle Fist is... gentle and uses light, elegant motions to deliver precise strikes. Eight Inner Gates is brute force with powerful, singular strikes. But tell me, Keji... how does each use chakra to enhance their style, and what does using chakra allow each style to do? Let me know what you think, based on your experience and knowledge."

"Use their second KKG ability to release chakra through tenketsu's, because of this and their byakugan gentle fist was created. It utilizes their abilities to directly inject chakra into their opponents allowing them to either shut off/turn on chakra points while simultaneously damaging internal organs around the area they strike. EIG on the other hand focuses on releases the users natural chakra limiters or gates. With each gate released the user enhances their body with chakra making them faster and stronger than before but the user must be in the best physical condition possible as the chakra enhancement take a heavy toll on the users body; in fact the eight gate results in the users death."

"That's a tough question sensei. As a inspiring tai specialist I would like to learn both... but if I had to choose one..." Keji crosses his arms and places one hand on his chin to think. "If I had to choose one it would be Gentle Fist. My reasoning for this is the fluidity of the movements combined with the pin point accuracy of the strikes are a work of art; not to mention the damage caused by Gentle Fist and control you have over your opponent. Don't get me wrong EIG has some devastating power and speed but the draw back and toll it puts on your body seem to hefty a price if given the option to use one or the other. If I was able to learn both I would only use the EIG as a last resort."
Souji grinned.
"I like that. I usually ask this question because it gives me an idea of what type of taijutsu fighter you might grow to become. Gentle Fist answers are more maneuverable and elegant, while EIG answers have students that are more aggressive and straightforward."
"Of course, that's not to say you'll grow to have different preferences. I encourage you to learn as much as you can to find what suits you."
Clapping his hands together once, he took a deep breath.
"Let's get started! Show me your favorite stance. Something that's both comfortable and ready for everything!"

Keji grinned to hear his sensei was pleased. With that Keji proceed to take his most comfortable stance. Arms up hands slightly opened facing outward, head placed slightly ducked behind his forearms, legs are shoulder width apart with the left leg slightly forward and bent to where his toes on that foot were barely touching the ground.
OOC: I do MMA so I'm trying my best to describe my stance. It's a modified thai fighters stance but for simplicity just image a average muay thai fighter. ^^
(Nice. Doing martial arts IRL is a plus, so it looks like I won't have to teach you much for stances, etc.! xd one thing with your description... just make sure you indicate which hand is closer to your face [which arm is further out?]; if they're equidistant, indicate as such. But besides that, I'm looking forward to what you can do!)
Seeing how serious his student was taking this, Souji formed a familiar handseal, forming a set of Shadow Clones.
"Nice stance, Keji! You look like you have a good amount of experience. So... I'll just be observing your performances and maybe giving you tips depending if you need them."
"For this training, I'll be describing each technique rather simply, and it's up to you to practice them to the best of your ability."
"Our first jutsu is arguably the most powerful in history... form the Tiger handseal with your hands, and jab the pointed part of the sustained handseal into the behind of one of my clones here. Ha!"

Hearing what his sensei just said Keji gives a weird face
. Regaining composer he dashes towards the nearest clone. Upon reaching the clone he plants his right slightly past the clones left leg while simultaneously placing his left hand on the back of the clones neck and his right on the clones shoulder gripping them. By applying pressure on his right leg and bringing his left knee up while simultaneously pulling down on the clones neck and shoulder causing the clones downward momentum to collide with the upward momentum and force of Keji's knee connecting just under the rib cage in the solar plexus; Keji cause the clone to fall over to its hands and knees. As this happens Keji hurry's behind the clone, making the tiger seal Keji smiles in a menacing(Alluka) way and forces it up the clones behind sending it flying across the field. Keji then turns his grin to the other clones "How was that?"(If this is to much detail let me know)
(There's never a problem with too much detail. I liked how you subdued him first, then poked his butt! Excellent work xd)
Souji rubbed his butt as the clone disappeared. Did he feel it too?
"Whew- good job, Keji! That was a nice warm up."
"Taijutsu focuses on the chaining of multiple attacks to make combinations. I want you to try putting two together; a kick to the face, and a punch to the chest! They can be in any order you'd like, and whatever way that makes sense. Don't forget to scream 'DAINAMIKKU ENTORI!' when performing the kick! My second clone is ready for you. I hope."
The second clone shot the original a look of pure death.

As the clone turns to look back at the original takes a orthodox boxers stance. The moment the clone begins to turn back Keji takes a single half step forward with his left leg and begins turning his hips as his right leg begins to pivot producing power from his foot to his calf to his thigh to his hips. As his hips turn so does his torso whining the muscles causing them to tense until all that built up force is released through his fist as his shoulders turn launching his arm and fist into the clones solar plexus. As the clone begins to spit blood Keji uses his forward momentum to switch position of his legs putting his right forward and his left back. He proceeds to jump off his right leg while snapping his left leg forward by turning his hip and swinging his left arm back. This brings his left shin flying across the clones right ear rupturing it's ear drum and knocking it unconscious. Landing back on the ground Keji speaks "I hope those aren't shadow clones... oh Dynamic entry. Sorry I don't speak much when preforming moves."
------------------
I apologize if the description is confusing. I actually do the movements and try to describe them the best I can the way I feel them.
(The description was fine! One thing: just be sure to indicate which arm you punched my clone with. I understood it, though! You punched forward, then shifted your weight and sprung off your right leg, thrusting with a wide kick from the side. Very MMA-ish xd )
"Hmm... good, good! Same drill, but this time, our next two attacks are kick-based. The first one is a rear spinning low kick... meaning you perform a spinning low kick from back to front, sweeping the enemy off their feet during that rotation. This is good to aim at your target's feet!"
"Then, the other one is a series of high and low kicks. The high kicks are feints meant to draw attention from the real damage dealer, which is a low kick to the rib cage."
"Got it?"
