Hiden

Clan secret techniques are jutsu only used by a single clan, but not neccesarily kekkei genkai. These techniques usually could be used by any ninja, but are not because the knowledge and skills neccesary are kept secret. These techniques are usually what the clan is famous for, and without them they would very likely lose their status as a clan. Some examples of this is the aburame clan's manipulation of insects, kidomaru's spider web techniques, and the yamanaka clan's mind controlling jutsu's.
