Imagine yourself traveling to Noda city Japan with
Master Richard Van Donk this year to personally
meet and actually train in private with Soke Hatsumi
in a small dojo setting! Everyday you'll go to
train
at the dojos of several other Shihan teachers,
sight
see ancient temples, visit museums and explore
the
world of Japanese living. Shihan Van Donk will
also
spend time training with you and covering points
of the days teachings. Visit Tokyo to see the famous
Meiji Park and gardens, and the Imperial Palace.
Travel to 400 year old Nikko Golden
temple shrines. Any serious Japanese martial arts
practitioner should go to the roots and core of
the lineage that they practice. It creates a bond
and feeling that cannot be gotten any other way.
Just being there changes the way you perceive the
art.
And then there is training in
the Bujinkan Hombu Dojo (which is called the Bujinden
-Palace of the Divine Warrior) with the Grandmaster
himself. Wow!
You will never forget
this experience.

In fact it has been a once in a lifetime trip for
many who have gone on this trip with Shihan Van
Donk... others are so impacted they keep going back
at least once a year. It is highly recommenced that
you have some training in Ninjutsu BEFORE this trip.
Most all training's will be filled with blackbelts
and most likely taught at a high blackbelt level.
It is also highly recommended that you go to Japan
the first time with a senior instructor who can
show the country, teach you some proper etiquette,
introduce you to senior teachers, take you to the
dojo training's, where to eat, and etc. before you
go on your own.
This Ninjutsu Japan Study Tour
to the Source of Ninjutsu is led and sponsored personally
by Shihan Van Donk (Bujinkan, a 15th dan direct
student of Ninjutsu Grandmaster Hatsumi. ) who has
been to Japan over 35+ times. Richard will also
be teaching a personal enlightenment method to those
who desire to learn during this fabulous journey
to Japan the land of the rising sun.
Come visit Japan's very
rich ancient culture and train at the source of
the art at a time when masters from around the world
will share their talents.
Limited in size for a very
personal experience.
