ninjitsu master in earnest.......

[blooming lotus]

read quite a bit of information on a bujinkan dojo grandmaster recently and had a warm fire lit up under my as*...... his name is ( masaaki ) Hatsumi Sensei and he lives and runs his dojo in Japan for ninjitsu. I like native traditional practice and practioners, and this old guy is doing it for me big time . Considering making Japan my next gongfu / ma leg.......... Does anyone have some information or an exact location??


and no, I don't mean his students dojos like Darren Howarth of SA aus ( good as I'm sure he is)..............


Anyone got some information??


for anyone in Australia intersted in learning the bujinkan way, pls email Duncan Stewart on duncanstewart@bigpond.com

7*...what about you Mr. everything budo???

Sigh. Yes BL, people have heard of him. In fact he's been world famous since around the 70s (you being all into "Ninjitsu", as you spell it, I figured you'd have known that).

Anyway, the correct spelling is "Ninjutsu" (unless you're doing fake "Ashida Kim" crap). Hatsumi Sensei is the 34th generation grandmaster of the Togakure Ryu school of ninjutsu and the current head of the 9 traditions which make up the Bujinkan. He inherited these arts from Tosh!tsugu Takamatsu Sensei.

If you want more info, I'm sure it's easily available online.
