With 34 seminars during this past year – 2022, although far from our record of 45 seminars set in the year 2018, it is undeniable that we still hold the epithet of “Most dynamic Dojo in Europe”. Let’s see what the numbers say about the past year. 
The teacher Igor Dovezenski, as leader of Bujinkan Macedonia, organized and taught during 27 seminars for Ninjutsu, meaning techniques from the schools that Masaaki Hatsumi Sensei inherited from Toshitsugu Takamatsu Sensei. From them, 12 were held in the yard or inside the Hombu Dojo of “Taiyou e no Michi”, 10 were held in the Skopje dojo, three were held in nature, and two were held internationally – outside of Macedonia. We must also mention the seminars that took place in the countries of Serbia and Turkey, where Dovezenski was invited to transfer some of his knowledge about the schools of ninjutsu, there also was the organization of an international seminar in our country, during which the leader of “Taiyou e no Michi” taught together with his friend from Turkey – Erjan Sharbat. 
If we are to go into details, this year for Bujinkan Macedonia went like this : two kid’s ninja marathons, one kid’s ninja summit, three seminars in nature, one seminar for Shinobi Taiso, one workshop for female self defense, three seminars in Skopje, seven seminars at the Hombu, two team building events for companies – during which Dovezenski taught segments from some of the ninjutsu arts, one international seminar at home, two international seminars abroad, one kids and one adults summer camp. 
Regarding “Daito ryu Macedonia – Koryu Dojo”, in 2022 we held seven seminars, of which six were for Daito ryu Aikijujutsu and one was for Ono ha Itto ryu Kenjutsu. In addition to all of these events, we had several television and news sites do segments and interviews about us, and furthermore we participated and donated during several humanitarian drives. We must also mention the participation of the teacher Igor Dovezenski and his daughter Kosara in the first Macedonian action film (with ninja themes) in which ninjutsu techniques were used. The movie is in its final stages and has the working title of “Kill the children first” by the director Dimitar Orovcanec, who hired the teacher Dovezenski as a fight sequence choreographer, while Kosara was a stunt woman/stunt double for the movie’s main star – Matea. Concurrently, Dovezenski had a consulting role in all the areas of the movie where Japanese martial arts were used, and he also selflessly lent some Japanese items from his personal collection, so that the movie’s production could be enriched. 
What’s more, we need to mention the bronze medal “Genin” that was awarded to sempai Taki Gakovski for his ten years of tireless training as part of Bujinkan Macedonia, and the publishing of the Macedonian version of the second edition of the manga “Takamatsu in China”, this time titled “The mission to Xilinhot”. Finally, as is tradition, we would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to all of the members of the Organisation “Taiyou e no Michi”, and especially to the older members of Bujinkan Macedonia, who through their tireless dedication have allowed us to continue enjoying this marvelous journey through the world of the traditional Japanese martial arts. 
And how about 2023? Well, we have great plans and many announcements to make, and we promise you that we will give it our all to uphold the high standards that we have set, not only in this region, but also globally. And we will continue to consistently show our fatherland – The Republic of Macedonia – in the best possible light, wherever we may go. Bujinkan Macedonia – One love, one family!
