Upon the slopes and hills of the mountain of Lipac, this Sunday a seminar titled “Kampo – traditional herbal medicine”. This event was the first in a series that is planned to span the next seven years. 

To put matters into perspective, this new series of seminars is the last part of the trilogy of so-called survival seminars that began with “Survival in Nature”, continued with “Life in Nature” and now shall finish with “Kampo – traditional herbal medicine”. Each took seven years, for a final 21 years of survival seminars that help us harmonize ourselves with nature.

The seminar that took place this last Sunday, was attended by around ten members of “Taiyou e no Michi”, and the event was open to all, so we also had two participants from outside our organization.

The second in a series of international seminars titled BuYuKai, was held this weekend at the yard of the Hombu Dojo of the Organization “Taiyou e no Michi”. This event, which was fully booked in just two days from its official announcement, gathered in one place practitioners from four different countries: Turkey, Austria, Bulgaria and Macedonia. And if the number of participants wasn’t capped at around 40, it is quite probable that the seminar would have witnessed even greater attendance.

Notably, this was the second BuYuKai seminar, the first one that was held in Turkey in 2019. The event, during which taught the teachers Igor Dovezenski (Bujinkan Macedonia) and Erjan Sharbat (Bujinkan Turkey), was envisioned as a way to compile and share the experiences of both instructors, and as a way for their students to socialize and get to know each other.

At the seminar’s conclusion, the teachers announced that the third international seminar titled BuYuKai will be held in Istanbul, near the end of October (2022), and also the possibility of another teacher taking part in this international assembly.

With a bit of an altered program, in accordance with their wishes, we held a short shuriken throwing lesson, coupled with a bow and arrow shooting course, and then the participants enjoyed some shinobi taiso downtime topped off with a few meditation exercises.

At the end of the day, completely satisfied by the extraordinary day, the employees and managers from “Kontura” already scheduled our next get-together.

Our longstanding relationship with “Kreativa”, where our instructors hold regular Japanese yoga classes, has further grown. This past Saturday we organized a “team building” exercise for them, during which we had a wonderful day, filled with friendship, activities and adventures. 

Unlike others, Bujinkan Macedonia organizes another kind of “team building”, where our clients can pick between different kinds of activities. 

The wonderful girls from “Kreativa” decided to visit the neolithic observatory and settlement “Cocev Kamen” and the “Konjuska Tvrdina”. Both localities can be found in the vicinity of our Hombu Dojo. And to top it all off, we had a communal vegan lunch (noodles with vegetables) cooked by the teacher Igor Dovezenski. 

All interested firms, that would like to organize a unique “team building” experience for their staff, can write to us using our inbox or they can call us at +389 75 564 011.

A seminar dedicated to the art of handling a rifle was held in the courtyard of the Hombu Dojo of the Organization for the study of classical Japanese martial arts – Taiyou e no Michi.  

During the event, the students from Bujinkan Macedonia had the opportunity to familiarize themselves with the techniques and shooting stances form the school of Geki ryu Hojutsu. To that end, instead of a japanese matchlock rifle, the participants used air-rifles, all the while taking care to stick to the principles and forms of the Tanegashima. 

It is interesting to note,  that during the golden days of the Japanese ryu-ha, in the Land of the Rising Sun there were around 400 Hojutsu schools. 

At the seminar’s end, it was agreed upon that if there is any further interest in repeating this event, it should become part of the standard yearly event calendar of Bujinkan Macedonia.

This year’s event attracted a lot of interest from the beginners group of Bujinkan Macedonia, which made the atmosphere that much grander.
