Author dovezenskiPosted on Categories HomeAfter the forty five seminars held during 2018, we ask ourselves: For how long will we continue to surpass the limits that we didn’t even set for ourselves?
And as we didn’t set limits, neither did we set goals, but thanks to the enormous love towards the Japanese martial arts and with the incredible commitment that burn within us, we surpass all records – even on a global level. To be clearer, in a year there are 52 weekends, and we during the same have held 45 seminars meaning that’s the number of times we have had additional (besides the regular during the working week) specialized full day classes in Kobudo. 
Lets take it from the beginning. Maybe the most important event in 2018 was the trip of the instructor Igor Dovezenski in Japan to perfect his Bujutsu and Ninjutsu in the land of the Rising Sun. During one of the trainings, the shihan Yukio Noguchi bestowed upon the leader of Bujinkan Macedonia 10th dan, with which the only recognized Macedonian dojo now has a teacher of the highest level. At the same time, soke Masaaki Hatsumi gave to Dovezenski a Bugo meaning a martial name – The Thunderous Tiger. During which, on a Kakejiku (hanging scroll) he wrote “The echo of the thunderous tiger reverberates through the mountains”. Here again we must mention the acceptance of Dovezenski in the presence of Yasuada Iizasa, the 20th Soke of Tenshin Shoden Katori Shinto ryu Bujutsu and even in the dojo built by his ancestors. 
But to return again to the seminars which more or less look like this. Twelve were dedicated to Daito ryu Aikijujutsu, from which six were held in the Hombu, and four in the dojo in Skopje. Two of them were held in nature.
As for the schools of Bujinkan, six events were organized in the Skopje dojo, while 13 in the Hombu of “Taiyou e no Michi“. To this we must add the seven Ninjutsu seminars in nature, out of which this year we shall separate the fifth “Life in the Wild”, the second “10.000 B.C.”, and the tenth in a row “The Way of the Shugenja”. Because of the planed trip to Japan of shidoshi Igor Dovezenski, this year we took part in only one international seminar in Sofia (Bulgaria), where our Teacher for Daito ryu Aikijujutsu, Certa Sensei held lessons on the behest of the Bulgarian Aikido Federation. 
Lets not forget the biggest event that through the years gained a legendary stature, and that is our far known “Summer Ninja Camp”, during which the instructor Dovezenski, this year for the first time thought Daito ryu Aikijujutsu (among other arts). And the vanguard as last year was (for the second time) the “Childrens Ninja Camp”. Beside all these events, the following ones also deserve to be mentioned: The Mega interview of the Leader of Bujinkan Macedonia given for the only Macedonian portal for martial arts ИПОН.МК. Afterward the excellent demonstration (Embu) by the senior members of “Taiyou e no Michi” in front of the Consul of Japan in the Republic of Macedonia – Toyokazu Kubota. The participation in Heath, fitness and wellness Expo, as also the interview of Todorovski, Antovski and Gakovski for the “Weekly Magazine” of the Macedonian Television. At the years end we got a new Sempai that is Sanja Simonova succesfully passed the test for the second kyu, and Sempai Filip Trajanovski became a carrier of the brown belt (first kyu). 
As every year, we voice our greatest thanks to all the members of the organization “Taiyou e no Michi”, and especially to the older members of Bujinkan Macedonia, which with their tireless commitment allowed us the again enjoy the amassing journey through the world of the traditional Japanese martial arts (Koryu Bujutsu). We hold on the epithet of the most dynamic European dojo, and we will try to spread that epithet through the world. Because we bravely walk the “Taiyou e no Michi” . We remain a happy family. We remain a synonym for Warriors. Bujinkan Macedonia runs through our veins. Eternal. Ninpo Ikkan!!!
In the forest of Mlaka, not far from the Hombu of “Taiyou e no Michi”, this Sunday an intensive seminar “Ninja Day” was held.
spring multiple events of this type should be organized during which it will be possible to individually learn all of the weapons which were presented during the seminar.
