Ninja Summer Camp – the countdown has started !!!
Ninjutsu
Union Bujinkan Macedonia, as
one of the most active martial arts clubs in the Balkans, is the first which
has built a Ninjutsu Training Centre in the region of Southeast
Europe. The Centre is out in nature, is a camp-type facility and
is built on a Bujinkan Macedonia’s private property.
Primarily,
the
camp is envisaged to serve as a training centre of the Bujinkan
Macedonia
members for their training in August (the only month when the schools
on the Union don’t work). The training in the camp will differ
from the one in the dojo-s since it will enable practicing taijutsu
techniques
(with a body) and buki waza (with weapon) – techniques which are
inadequate for
practicing in the closed space (such as practice with an arrow and a
bow).
At
the same time, the camp will serve as a centre for regular training, additional
training, or a centre for conditional training for people practicing martial
arts who can make use of ninjutsu in development of their skills and improve
personal results. The doors of the camp are, as well, open to those who would
like to lower their weight or to strengthen their muscles in a natural way,
through exercise and healthy diet. The centre will also serve as a place for
recreation and relaxation of the mind and the body through various kinds of
meditation and exercises.
Ninja
Summer Camp, taking place between 04th and 12th of
August, is open for non-members of Bujinkan Macedonia but are willing to get
familiar with us and our martial art. For those participants training sessions
are not obligatory and they organize activities for themselves (or in
cooperation with us), i.e. enjoy the benefits of the clean air, organic food,
river beaches, same as usual summer holidays.
Further
on, our training centre is a place that abounds with conditions for self-improvement
through different psychical and mental exercises in an exciting way.
It is envisaged that this Ninja Camp
slowly becomes Hombu Dojo of Ninjutsu Union Bujinkan Macedonia, by
building a facility which will encompass all conditions and characteristics of
a real Japanese dojo.
In a few days we will provide a new
web location dedicated specifically for the Ninja Summer Camp.
Instead of Sui Ren, a perfect Yumi Ya Jutsu seminar held
Heavy
rains and a high water level of Kriva Reka in past few days were the
reasons why the subject Sui Ren was replaced with Yumi Ya Jutsu (a
skill for using an arrow and a bow).
As
every other year, sensei Dovezenski has at first introduced the
students a history and the usage of this weapon, and then he has
demonstrated the way of making the one. Since the students have
comprehended the skill of making an arrow and a bow, with short but a
strong marsh, they all directed towards the place called Krshche, in
the surroundings of Elenachki Kladenec. Here, the basic training for
hitting a target with different kamae (positions of the body) begun.
Besides the technical details and characteristics of Yumi Ya Jutsu, the
students were, as well, introduced with the philosophy and strategy
needed for a successful understanding of this skill.
The
last part of the seminar was dedicated to practice with a crossbow
weapon. As always, the students had an opportunity to enrich and
complete their knowledge by repeating the old techniques, but learning
new ones as well, which will make them think for a long time about this
ancient martial art.
Seminar in nature - Sui Ren (training in water)
On the 12th of July 2009, Bujinkan Macedonia is organizing the traditional outdoors seminar Sui Ren (training in water).
This
will be another great possibility for all members to learn more about
this skill which is one of the 18 basic martial arts (Ninja Juhakkei),

Sui Ren/ ways of crossing through water, silent entrance in water,
water as a weapon, tools for breathing under water, invisibility in

Освежување со нова (редизајнирана) веб-страница
Драги боречки пријатели,
пред Вас е новата (редизајнирана) веб-страница на Нинџутсу Сојузот Буџинкан Македонија. Се надевам дека ќе Ви се допадне.
Најпрвин, сакам да му се заблагодарам за досегашната соработка на Игор Савиќ, инаку член на нашиот сојуз. Тој ги постави стандардите на нашата веб-страница. Истовремено, ја користам оваа прилика да му се извинам за постојаното „малтретирање“ кое мораше да го трпи со цел да одговори на моите чести барања. Станува збор за одличен пријател и неверојатно добар програмер, на кого му ја доделувам титулата „Чикушоу“ (на јапонски-Ѕвер) 🙂
Новиот редизајн е дело на нашиот истакнат член Дарко Божиновски. Отсега тој ја презема одговорноста за развој и одржување на нашата веб-страница. Даре, спреми се за „малтретирање“.
Гамбате Кудосаи !!!

Goton Po seminar held
We
could say that this Goton Po was a continuation of the last years. The
training begun on the place called Elenacki Karpi, where the students
of Bujinkan Macedonia
were learning how to climb and get down from rocks without any
protection gear, actually, only with the help of a rope and sword
(boken). After that, techniques for climbing with the use of two knifes
and with the help of a partner were studied.
Later,
with the help of instructor Igor Dovezenski, the older students taught
the younger ones how to make a trap, and the best part of the seminar
was the arranged action for surprising the “enemy chasers”.
After that there was explanation and making of the so called Fire Ball, which will be studied further on another seminar.
Apart
from these skills, the students were introduced to healing plants and
the use of their surroundings in case of survival in nature. The
seminar was successful besides the hot and moist weather, which tried
to influence the physical and psychical abilities of the students.
Goton Po Outdoor Seminar
The traditional outdoor seminar on subject: Goton Po (usage of the five elements), will be held on the 7th of June 2009.
Goton
Po is an integral part of the legendary skill of Togakure Ryu Ninjutsu,
Inton Jutsu, actually a skill of hiding, avoiding and camouflaging. The
participants of the seminar will have the possibility to learn how to
use the natural elements: earth, water, wood, fire and metal, in order
to be able to hide, camouflage and avoid the threatening danger.
Day: 7th of June (2009)

Bujinkan Macedonia on seminar with Edward Martin in Montenegro
Upon the invitation of the Bujinkan Montenegro, the Bujinkan Macedonia took part at the first Budo Taijutsu Tai Kai seminar
in this friendly country. At the seminar which was held in Budva and
perfectly organized, around 60 people from several countries
participated.
During
the two days of the seminar, Shihan Edward Martin (Papa San) has taught
the techniques such as defense from a knife, but the bare hand fight
(taijutsu) as well. The Hungarian Shihan, our very close friend David
Holt, has also helped.
As
always, among the technical part of the seminar, the teacher Edward
Martin involved the teaching on the mental aspects of the fight
(through kuden), accompanying it with the various examples from his
very rich experience as budoka.
It was nice to see our old friends from the clubs with which Bujinkan Macedonia have long-lasting good relations.
In
the breaks between sessions, our 7-member team was visiting this
tourist centre’s city beach and used the boon of the sea, while the
evenings were reserved for the party in the historic town.
At
the closure ceremony, the seminar organizer Predrag Lazarevic gave the
Bujinkan Macedonia representative Igor Dovezenski, a special
recognition for the Development of Bujinkan in Montenegro.
We wish all our friends to continue to organize such as wonderful seminars as this one was.
Gambate!
