Attitude survey - all answers welcome!!!

I'm trying to get a handle on how people feel about martial arts - it's one of the ways I can become a better ninjutsu teacher. If you can take a minute and answer these questions, I'd *seriously* appreciate it!

If you are into martial arts...

Before you got into martial arts, what did you think about it? What kind of positive/negative ideas or impressions did you have of it? What was the positive idea that finally prompted you to become active?

If you're not into martial arts...

What's your impression of martial arts? Both good and bad impressions are valuable to know about. Is there anything you've heard/seen about martial arts that makes you want to try it? Is there anything you've heard/seen about martial arts that makes you not want to try it?

First off, are you in the Bujinkan?

Yes! I train at the Bujinkan Kuryu Dojo in Central Pennsylvania.

I have my black belt test coming up later this month... nervousnervousnervous

Thanks for your response - it was thoughtful & interesting! And ninjutsu is totally da bomb!
