Изминатиот викенд, во Македонија се одржа јубилејниот десетти по ред БуЈуКаи семинар, традиционален настан кој од година во година обединува сè поголем број љубители на традиционалните јапонски боречки вештини.

Иако првично беше најавено дека како и секогаш семинарот ќе го предводат долгогодишните пријатели и соработници Игор Довезенски и Ерџан Шарбат од Турција, поради оправдани причини Ерџан во последен момент беше спречен да допатува во Македонија.

Честа и одговорноста да го води семинарот овојпат целосно му припаднаа на учителот Игор Довезенски, кој за темата на десеттиот БуЈуКаи ги избра Шинден Фудо рју Дакентаиџутсу и Иаиџутсу. Во текот на повеќечасовните тренинзи беа обработени принципите, катите и практичната примена на техниките од оваа древна школа, со посебен акцент на природното движење на телото, правилното користење на дистанцата и разбирањето на боречките концепти кои ја прават Шинден Фудо рју толку посебна меѓу класичните јапонски традиции.

Особено нè радува фактот што годинашниот БуЈуКаи постави нов рекорд по посетеност. На семинарот учествуваа вкупно 40 вежбачи, што претставува најголем број учесници во историјата на овој настан. Големиот интерес уште еднаш покажа дека идејата за БуЈуКаи како место за дружење, размена на знаења и заедничко усовршување продолжува успешно да живее и да се развива.

Како и секоја година, покрај тренинзите, значителен дел од времето беше посветен и на запознавање со културното и историското богатство на Македонија. Учесниците повторно го посетија Кратово, еден од најстарите и најживописни градови во нашата држава, каде имаа можност да ги разгледаат неговите препознатливи кули, мостови и стара архитектура.

Посебен впечаток остави и прошетката низ селото Довезенце, каде гостите се запознаа со повеќе историски и културни знаменитости од овој крај. Во пријатна атмосфера исполнета со дружење, разговори и споделување искуства, учесниците можеа подобро да ја почувствуваат традицијата и гостопримството по кои е препознатлива Македонија.

Десеттиот БуЈуКаи уште еднаш покажа дека вистинските вредности на боречките вештини не се ограничени само на тренинг-салата. Пријателството, заемната почит, желбата за учење и заедничките спомени остануваат најголемото богатство што секој учесник го носи со себе по завршувањето на семинарот.

Се гледаме повторно на следниот БуЈуКаи – во Истанбул.

Едно Доџо – Една Љубов. Нинпо Икан!

In the period between the 26th of April to the 2nd of May, the teacher Igor Dovezenski held a series of seminars in the region of Lorient (Grand Est) in France.

The classes were dedicated to the schools of Bujinkan ninjutsu, Daito-ryu aikijujutsu and the schools of kenjutsu from Tenshin Shoden Katori Shinto-ryu.

The seminars were held at the aikido clubs in Malzeville (a suburb of Nancy), and in Blainville, which is situated thirty kilometers south of Nancy. Both dojos are part of the French aikido federation and through it the Aikikai foundation of Japan. 

The event’s participants were so amazed by their instructor Dovezenski that they sent him off with ovations and applause, and they have already invited him to come and share his knowledge with them again next year. 

The Macedonian teacher accepted the invitation fullheartedly, first and foremost because of the  honor being shown to him, but also because of the continuous joy that was shown by those being taught all through the sessions. 

With mutual respect and enthusiasm, the hosts and Dovezenski parted ways with the words: “See you next year.”

And so, in addition to the training sessions, they visited several different cities, japanese gardens, ancient temples, castles and other places connected to the samurai traditions.

During their visit they managed to spend some time talking to and visiting several Japanese teachers with which there was talk about future plans concerning Bujinkan Macedonia.

The chilly weather did nothing to dissuade the members of Bujinkan Macedonia from successfully realizing this 17th seminar dedicated to the techniques of spear fighting, also known as – “Strength of the Yari”. 

The event was held at the forest of Mlaka, and in it took part around 20 practitioners from all different age groups.

It was truly inspiring to see the level of enthusiasm and dedication shown by the younger students, who actively expanded and deepened their knowledge of the art of SoJutsu (spear fighting) from the school of Shinden Fudo ryu DakenTaijutsu. Under the leadership of the teacher Igor Dovezensk, the participants had the opportunity to learn from his sizable experience and approach to teaching, which was paired with his selfless wish to share it with all those present.
