With lots of laughter and positive energy, in the spirit of Rokkon Shojo, this weekend we practiced in our dojo under the guidance of the great ninjutsu master Sveneric Bogsater. His performance and teaching were enjoyed by 40 attendants from Serbia (Belgrade, Novi Sad and Nis), Montenegro (Budva) and Macedonia (Skopje and Kavadarci).
The first day, we began training with a Tachi (battlefield sword), which was followed by Taijutsu techniques. His performance of the Kihon Happo techniques was impressive – he managed to tie all eight into a single kata. Afterwards, we practiced kunai techniques, an old japanese weapon, which when in Sveneric’s hands, acts like an extension of his arm.
The second day, we practiced techniques which were always a favorite in our dojo. Defense against knife. Here also, the students had a chance to see Sveneric’s quality.
After that, we moved on to hanbo techniques, which we also enjoyed.
Once again, I thank all our friends which came from abroad to study with us.
I am also thankful to the students of Bujinkan Macedonia for their support and help organizing this seminar. As always, you were amazing in every way possible.
In the end, a great thanks to sensei Sveneric, for the honor and trust he gave us and for again sharing his knowledge and experience, and mostly for the oral transmission (kuden) which I will never forget, especially in the moments which we spent on the Vodno mountain at the courtyard of the monastery of st. Panteleimon.
All the best until the next seminar.
Sensei Certa is the only gaijin (non-japanese) who in the history of these classic 
The intensive training (which is held once a year) in the Hombu dojo of the European Daito Ryu Aikibudo organization, placed in Zerbolo (between Pavia and Vigevano), is very rigorous and demanding.
the same ways they were done in the Daitokan dojo. The working group is a small one, consisted only of chosen students, who in order to attend this intensive training are required to have at least a 2nd Dan in any Japanese martial art or to be a member of the organization. Bruises, wounds and pain are constantly present during the training, and the life in the dojo happens on the tatami (you sleep and practice here).
The older students of sensei Igor Dovezenski, know for a long time about his wish to study Daito Ryu Aikijujutsu. That wish was finally fulfilled by being accepted as a personal student of the Shihan Antonino Certa, by which he became a representative (section) of that organization in Macedonia.
By opening a Daito Ryu section, we don’t intend to reduce our Bujinkan related activities. On the contrary, they always was and always will be an imperative for instructor Igor Dovezenski. Studying Daito Ryu Aikijujutsu and Onno ha Itto Ryu Kenjutsu, will only allow us to better understand classical Japanese martial arts, which are a great passion for the members of the martial arts school Taiyou e no Michi – Bujinkan Macedonia
During the first day, basic punches and kicks, blocks and katas from Kurai Dori were practiced, from the classical Japanese martial school Koto Ryu Koppojutsu.The second day was reserved for the school of Gyokko Ryu Koshijutsu, where besides the basics, instructor Dovezenski explained in detail the katas from Ki Gata. 
as a great host. The whole seminar passed flawlessly, thanks to his dedication to make the guests feel good. On Saturday, around midnight, the attendants of this seminar went to a party in the club K7, where they stayed until the early hours of the morning, but that didn not in any way affect their concentration during the next day training. It was wonderful to see how students from both clubs socialize with each other. 
hard-working, he couldn’t wait to try the next technique, for which he was assisted by the students of Bujinkan Macedonia, Marjan Proshev and Zoran Todorovski. Afterwards, we discussed further collaboration, in order to make a better training opportunity for this Macedonian representative in UFC. Additionaly, we invite anyone who could financially support Oliver, to call Blagoj Tanevski. 
Invited by our friend from Novi Sad, Srgjan Crnogorac, this weekend we attended a seminar with Kacem Zoughari from France. The theme of this seminar was Koto Ryu Koppojutsu and Jo Jutsu, but there were also techniques from the Gyokko Ryu Koshijutsu school. Besides the instructor from Bujinkan Macedonia, Igor Dovezenski, the seminar was attended by his uchi deshi Marjan Proshev and our friends from Bujinkan Kavadarci as well.
In the Hombu dojo of Bujinkan Macedonia, under the guidance of the instructor Igor Dovezenski, was held a seminar with the theme Gokui Ne Waza (secrets of ground fighting). 
The seminar began with a short theoretical introduction to the history and techniques of Ne Waza, which was soon followed by some Taiso drills, followed by studying the Atemi Kyu Sho, Ukemi Taihenjutsu and Kamae.
Regardless of the pain caused by the reality of the training, also from the hardness of the parquet of our Dojo, the students (almost all of them) successfully finished the seminar, satisfied with the techniques learned during these two days.
