On the 2nd of July, 1995, the school for classical martial arts Bujinkan Macedonia (Taiyou e no Michi), started it’s work. It was founded by Igor Dovezenski, the man who „brought“ the classical Japanese martial samurai and ninja arts for the first time in Macedonia. Since then, our school is the only representative of soke Masaaki Hatsumi’s Bujinkan Dojo. Recently, we’ve became a representative of Daito Ryu Aikibudo Daito Kai as well, an organization in which are studied Daito Ryu Aikijujutsu and Ono ha Itto ryu Kenjutsu, both classical martial arts.
In this occasion, we will not write about our achievements – instead, we invite all our members, current and former, all our friends who follow our work, everyone who has ever been a part of us and enjoyed our training, to come to the party which will take place in our dojo on the 12th of July.
The celebration will start at 20.30 and last until 22.30. The cocktail will be organized by the well-known catering service „La Brusco“, who has clients in the most famous Macedonian companies. Responsible for the atmosphere are going to be musicians who are also members of our dojo.
In order to better organize this event, please do announce yourself through e-mail or one of our phone numbers.
На 2 јули, 1995 година, со работа започна Школото за класични борбени вештини Буџинкан Македонија (Пат кон Сонцето). Тоа беше основано од страна на Игор Довезенски, човекот коj за прв пат во Македонија ги „донесе“ класичните јапонски самурајски и нинџа вештини. Од тогаш, па до денес, нашето доџо е единствен претставник на организацијата Буџинкан Доџо на соке Масааки Хатсуми.
What a seminar, what a training, what an atmosphere! Simply put, flawless. Two days, five training sessions, two hours each, a total of 10 hours of diving into the marvelous world of Ono ha Itto Ryu Kenjutsu, in constantly changing weather conditions, sun and rain, followed by thunder and lightning. During this seminar, we were practicing the basic kamae, cuts and blocks from this wonderful swordfighting school.
During the Sunday, the first training was held right after sunrise. At the same time, some potatoes we’re rolling around in the campfire, which served as a tasty breakfast.
Ono Ha Itto Ryu is a school of clear, fast, powerful and simple movements, which are the things that make it so efficient. Even though in the School for classical Japanese martial arts Bujinkan Macedonia primarily we study the nine schools from the Bujinkan Dojo, it is our pleasure to study this school as well. That was made possible thanks to master Antonino Certa, the only western shihan of Daito Ryu Aikibudo, who selflessly accepted the instructor of Bujinkan Macedonia – Igor Dovezenski as a student of his.
The school for classical Japanese martial arts Bujinkan Macedonia, on the 19th and 20th of June (2010), is organizing a seminar in the outdoors, titled Kenjutsu under the stars of Lipac.
