I'm seriously thinking of joining a Bujinkan dojo in the DC/Virginia area. I was amazed when I did a search and discovered how many there were near me. I've studied many fighting systems, off and on, over the years. I think I'd like to really focus on one system for a while, and Ninjutsu seems to pique my interest more than any other.
Any advice?

Yes, yes, I know that. I've been reading my Hatsumi and Stephen Hayes lately. I'm interested in all nine, but particularly the Ninja ones!
Anyway, I've located a couple of certified dojos in my area, and I'm going to look into it as soon as I have a day free!

Ya know when i first got started, i didn't quite know what to think of all the "ninja" stuff....but i found the training to be really interesting and oh so effective when done correctly-if you ever have a chance to go to a seminar and train with any of the Shihan, its quite an eye opening experience. I started training in 1989 and trained for about six years...then took some time off....uh, lots of time. like 12 years. Its a really small community. Many of the same people are still around, and its been really fun getting back into it. Good luck on your journey! Justin nice to see you here too:) Train hard and have fun!
