Isolation Problem

[EvilsBaneX]

Hi there, I'm new, so please forgive me. I have always loved martial arts, and have always been interested in ninjutsu, but the problem is, I live in southern Louisiana, so my choices have always been limited, and I was wondering if any of you knew of any dojos in the area?

I live in MS and have had the same problem for years. Mostly I have to travel at least a couple of hours in any direction to train with a group or formal dojo. Check out winjutsu.com and ninjutsu.com. They both have dojo listings, probably some in your area. Good luck, and good training.

You may have to travel to train. Sometimes this happens.

You may have to travel to train. Sometimes this happens.

Look for the places closest to you on www.winjutsu.com and then find out when they are having seminars or travel once a month or so to train. If you are interested you can do it. Good luck.

I sympathize with you whole-heartedly...
Although I don't train Ninjutsu, there is only one Karate school in the area that I would go to(and I'm in it!)
Hopefully my school will remain open for a long time to come...
Sorry to go(slightly) off topic, chief...Your not alone, and we all hope that you resolve this problem successfully...good luck.

I am a brand new member here and though I didn't want to Hi-Jack anyones thread, my problem is the same. I live in a very rural area and there are only two dojos here... One that I have trained in for years which is Skotokan and the other down the street which is Tae kwon do. I have expressed an interest lately in learning Ninjutsu. My instructor kept telling me I didn't want to learn that crap and should just stick with what I was doing... but I'd like to learn several styles and find a balance... The nearest Ninjutsu class is 100 miles away from where I live and I just don't have the time to do that regularly... having some training already is there material I can use at home to suppliment my regular training... (Books, Videos, Anything). I know this will only give me the most basic of understandings but should I decide to join a Dojo later... it might give me a leg up so that my time there is productive and I'm not just a know nothing walking in the door. And I know there is a LOT of junk material out there and would like to hear form some learned members who can point me to the proper stuff as I do not want to learn Ninja Movie skills. My main interest is the unbelievable balance training that I have become aware of in Ninjutsu. But all aspects of the art appeal to me.
