Thanks! All this has been very helpfull. But I guess I ran out of luck with the ninjutsu schools close to me. I have been looking all day and there are none in my area. So I guess I will have to look for a different art. What is the closest art to ninjutsu? I guess when I can drive I will be able to go some where else. But for now I will have to find some thing else. Any ideas?
If you send us out a list of the styles represented in the schools within your current radius of access, we can give you some feedback. That's probably the easiest way to do it. Call these schools, read their ad in the Yellow Pages and so on, takes some notes, and then send a note to this thread about who is offering what, and you'll get some responses about what those styles are all about and their relation to Ninjutsu, don't worry!
