Bujinkan Macedonia since yesterday has two new masters meaning Yudansha (carriers of a master title). After nearly ten years of training and perfecting as part of our dojo, sempai Vladimir Antovski and sempai Mihail Drakalski deservedly were awarded the rank of Shodan (first Dan).

During the testing, they successfully demonstrated the necessary techniques and skills that are necessary to receive the “black belt”, with which they entered the group of rare people that received the master degree from the teacher Igor Dovezenski.

During the event that was held in the Hombu Dojo of the Organization “Taiyou e no Michi” were present the compatriots, but also the friends and family of Antovski and Drakalski. We wish them success in their future studying and perfecting of the Japanese traditional martial arts and we wish that they stay on the Path for many years to come.

In the yard of the Hombu Dojo of Bujinkan Macedonia this Sunday was held the seminar with the title of : “Bujutsu – wandering between myth and reality”.  During the event, the teacher Igor Dovezenski trough lessons, and afterwards through randori (freestyle combat) put his students face to face with the reality of fighting with weapons.

All the participants were completely satisfied with the seminar and asked for this event to become part of the regular yearly seminar program, describing it as “too important” to their continued advancement.

Not to bore you, we will also mention that the previous day (Saturday). The Warriors of Bujinkan Macedonia organized a ecological drive to clean the riverbed of the river Zhivusa that runs in front of our Homby Dojo. During which were gathered more than 60 bags of trash, which afterwards was appropriately removed.

In the yard of the Hombu Dojo of Bujinkan Macedonia, yesterday was held another seminar dedicated to the techniques of shooting with a bow and arrow.

The event known by the name YumiYa Jutsu is one of the longest lasting meaning it has taken place even before the establishment of the dojo in the year 1995.
During the seminar, the teacher Igor Dovezesnki taught his students how to shoot with a simple homemade bow, similar to those which were used by the Shinobi warriors and was know under the name Maruki Yumi, similar to Hankyu – a short bow made from bamboo.

Studied were different techniques of shooting from different stances and positions, and some of the participants already started to show promising results.

The tenth in a row episode of the traditional seminar dedicated to combat with a spear (SoJutsu), was held this Sunday on the fields near the forest of Mlaka in the valley under the mountain Lipac.

As every year, no amount of word would be appropriate to describe the event that the dedicated members of Bujinkan Macedonia impatiently await every year.

Besides the regular and proven ones, we also would like to showcase the participation of our youngest member Petar Dovesenski, although he only has eight years, he managed to power through the entire seminar stopping not event one time under the attacks of the spears of the older Warriors of the Dojo.

In the end I would like to congratulate sempai Taki Gakovski, who from the teacher Igor Dovezenski was awarded a Densho in which are written all the techniques with the Yari.
