According to soke Masaaki Hatsumi`s directions, the theme for 2011 will be Kihon Happo. We are happy to hear that Bujinkan is dedicating it`s attention to the basics of the martial arts. That is something that our dojo has continuously payed attention to and considers most important.
As every year, Bujinkan Macedonia has it`s own internal theme, which is explored during the twelve months. In 2011, we decided to dedicate ourselves to the study of Takagi Yoshin Ryu Jutaijutsu (The school of the willow spirit).
The 2011 program of Bujinkan Macedonia is already on our page.
