Besides the Macedonians, there was a participant from France, and with that the event again took on an international character, something that is a regular occurrence by now.

The atmosphere during the camp was amazing, the training was tough and dynamic, and we are already getting messages and wishes about the next camp that shall be held in the summer of 2026. We would like to remind you that the call for participation opens on New Year’s eve, so be ready for it 🙂 .

In the timespan between the 27th of July and the 2nd of August at the Hombu Dojo of Bujinkan Macedonia was held the ninth in a row Summer Ninja Camp for children.

In the event, in addition to the children from Macedonia, participated several children from Italy, France and China (Hong Kong), with which the camp took on an international character. 

It is important to note, that this summer ninja camp was the most visited one and all of the available sports were already sold out even before the event started, and so we would like to remind next year’s participants to reserve their spot as soon as possible, because this event is becoming ever more popular even outside the borders of our country.

With an amazing party in the heart of the village of Dovezence, we had an open air party to celebrate 30 years since the creation of the only ninjutsu club in the Republic – Bujinkan Macedonia. 

The party was attended by former and current members of the dojo, and different friends and acquaintances that hold a deep respect towards what we do and create.

The atmosphere was incredibly positive, the people were overjoyed and full of laughter, and for the awesome vibe and feel of the party made sure the artists from Brooka Bend, Puka Kozmetika, Dre and DJ Zoltiman. 

Bujinkan Macedonia is the official representative of the international organization Bujinkan Dōjō in the Republic of Macedonia and works under the leadership of the teacher Igor Dovezenski – the first Macedonian to bring the authentic martial art of Ninjutsu in our country.

He is the founder of Bujinkan Macedonia, and a longtime student and practitioner of traditional Japanese martial arts. He is a holder of an official license from the Bujinkan Hombu Dōjō in Japan, under the leadership of d-r Masaaki Hatsumi, the founder of Bujinkan. 

Besides being a martial arts teacher, Dovezenski is also known as a student and researcher of the Macedonian spiritual and cultural tradition, which lends him a special level of insight when studying budo. He doesn’t consider Bujinkan as just a martial art, but a way of life that combines physical readiness, discipline, spiritual growth and respect towards nature and the ancestors.
