Yesterday in the yard of the Hombu Dojo of ” Taiyou e no Michi” for the ninth time was held the traditional seminar titled “Power of Yari”.
The younger members of Bujinkan Macedonia had the opportunity to study the techniques of spear fighting and in the same time feel the spirit of the past, while the advanced practitioners refreshed their knowledge.

Although the seminar was originally meant to be held on the edge of the forest of Mlaka, because of the rain that kept falling almost through the entire day, the instructor Dovezenski decided that the participants should train in the yard in front of the Hombu.

After the event ended, on the internet Forum, shidoshi ho Marko Opacik encouraged the younger members of the dojo to more regularly take part in the seminars in nature and in the central dojo of Bujinkan Macedonia:

– It was amazing to train in front of the Hombu Dojo. The spear in an amazing weapon that is truly hard to master, although in the hands of Sensei it look as if he is holding a stick of cotton. The weather was not on our side, a light and cold rain kept falling and we kept trudging through mud, but regardless, we had a great time. Although I have been taking part in this seminar for nine years now, I keep discovering new details and Sensei always gives us some new kuden. Of how wonderful are those moments spent in the Hombu surrounded by incredible people, compatriots, brothers, sisters…

Next Saturday we have Toami Jutsu, and the next day Jutte. We will see each other soon.

The leader of Bujinkan Macedonia, Igor Dovezenski, this Saturday held a one day training session in shuriken throwing. In the event took part six members of Bujinkan Macedonia from varied ages and skill levels.

During the exercise, the teacher Dovezenski taught techniques of throwing from different body positions, as from small, so from large distances.

The training in throwing weapons (Shuriken Jutsu) usually takes place a day before the spear (Yari) seminar, during which special care is taken to correct all and any mistakes that beginners usually make during training in this ancient Japanese martial art.

In the Skopje dojo of Bujinkan Macedonia, the instructor Igor Dovezenski yesterday held a four hour Ne Waza seminar in which took part multiple members from the dojo.

During the event studied and practiced were techniques of transition meaning going from one position to the other when the enemy is in the offensive (Tai Nagashi), then came contra techniques (Kaeshi Waza), and also grapples and chokes (Kansetsu and Shime Waza).

To our great pleasure, in the seminar took part Menka Stojanoska, consecutive Macedonian yearly champion in BJJ, Wrestling, as also in other disciplines in which ground fighting is a priority. As a girl who took her first steps in Japanese martial arts in our dojo, Stojanoska will always be welcomed and will have our support through her carrier.

This was also the last seminar in the Skopje dojo, and from the next week onward, the Hombu dojo shall open the doors to its members, and for all other citizens that want to get acquainted with traditional Japanese martial arts.
