The warriors of Bujikan Macedonia for the eight time proved that they are masters of survival in nature, regardless of the terrain or the weather. At a temperature of zero degrees Celsius accompanied by wind and snow, the members of the dojo easily coped with the cold weather that seemed to try and test all participants in this traditional seminar.
During the Sunday the Warriors again had the opportunity to study the secrets of winter survival on hilly terrain, and for that very goal the instructor Dovezenski chose the volcanic heights of Orljak, a place ideal for these kinds of seminars. They are hills of magmatic rocks which are abundant with low vegetation, and so they are almost always subject to winds. Regardless of the brutal terrain, the participants in a short amount of time built a shelter capable of sheltering up to eight people during the night. It is interesting to note that the entire building was made without the use of artificial bindings and only with the use of natural materials.
During the seminar, shidoshi Igor Dovezenski decided to test two of his students, during which he gave them task and a scenario, according to which the needed to independently build personal shelters that would be good enough for a safe stay of a few days. Sadly, neither one of the candidates passed the high standards of the dojo, although one of them was close to achieving it, so as a reward got the opportunity to repeat the test the next year.
Finally we have to say that we are proud that in the seminar took part three members of the kids group (Kosara, Ksenija, Petar) who took part equally and shared in the responsibilities of their older compatriots and didn’t complain even once about the weather during the whole day.
