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.






Eleven years in a row, the dojo Bujinkan Macedonia organized this event, and this year for the first time under the leadership of sempai Sanja Simonova, who together with the teacher Igor Dovezenski teaches techniques of self-defense from all kinds of situations. During the seminar, the participants had the opportunity to learn how to defend themselves from attacks with strikes, pinning to a wall, kicks, as well as situations when they find themselves on the ground. As support for Simonova and Dovezenski, always present were some of the older members of the dojo – Vladimir Antonovski, Mihail Drakalski and Filip Trajanovski.
Besides the amazing companionship and incredible atmosphere, all the members of the fairer sex during the entire seminar kept the smiles on their faces, and for us that is the greatest sign of the success of the Workshop. Till next year.
Around ten Warriors from Bujinkan Macedonia readily faced the pain that always is a companion when the topic is the study of the vital points of the body, and the smile on their faces never left. The Teacher Igor Dovezenski on the seminar had the time to teach about 18 vital points that when pressed or hit cause great pain in the attacker, which allows for a good defense during an undesirable situation.
In the end, the participants in the event asked for it to again be held in the near future, but if possible for it to last two days, with the goal of accumulating greater knowledge about this Japanese art.
diminished the quality of the event, quite the opposite – we put in even more effort into transferring knowledge and rewarding the commitment of those who decided to take part.
