Actually no. It can be learned by anybody.

Senjutsu (lit. Sage Arts) is the manipulation of Ki/Chi/Qi (Life-Force).

Since all living things/beings possess Life-Force, anyone has the potential to learn Senjutsu.

There are two main applications of Senjutsu:

1.) Gathering & manipulating the natural Ki (from the trees, plants, land, air, etc.) to enhance one's physical abilities.


 * This involves training your mind & spirit to "sense" the Ki that exists in your surroundings, learning to gather it into/around your body, then using it to attack (ki-blast, or punch & kick).

2.) Manipulating your own Ki (your own Life-Force) to enhance your physical abilities (Touki).


 * This involves training your body to increase it's "vitality" (amount of Ki in your body), then learning how to draw it out and use it to attack (ki-blast, or punch/kick).
