About Bujinkan Stroud Dojo

Bujinkan Stroud Dojo Description

Teaching Bujinkan Budo Taijutsu of Soke Masaaki Hatsumi. Stroud dojo is a friendly group of mixed age and sex. All abilities are welcome, whether you've trained in martial arts before or this is the first time, you'll receive a warm and friendly welcome.

Classes are taken by Shidoshi Stuart Wraith. Stuart has been training in the Bujinkan since around 1992 (the exact date he started is lost in the mists of time) and was awarded his 5th Dan by Soke Masaaki Hatsumi while visiting Japan in 2008.

The class covers techniques of the different schools (ryuha) of the Bujinkan, looking at Taijutsu (body movement) as well as training in a variety of different weapons. Focus is given every week to basic movement and techniques which is essential for students of all levels.

Training is on a Wednesday evening 6pm - 7pm for juniors (7-15yo) and 7pm - 9pm for Seniors (16 + ) at the Centre for Science and Art in Lansdown, Stroud (opposite the library).

Students looking to train can come along for a FREE session so that they can see if it is right for them. (please contact beforehand if you are looking to attend)

Remember this is a journey, sometimes it will be hard and frustrating, but it brings its own rewards.
As Soke says ‘keep going’.
Please read Duncan’s post below.

Very wise words, please read, when I first started training my instructors emphasised this feeling, it is worth taking this on board with your training.

Shared from Bujinkan Tasmania budo dojo.
"Guard and freely move in the space. Within the kukan you can effectively use strikes and weapons."
"Don't be attached to anything, just move, walk, and naturally fit in like a jigsaw puzzle piece."
... "Effortless taijutsu comes from mastering the principles of distance, angles and timing."
"If you do too much or move too much, you create openings. Just move enough."
"Ones own balance and control is vital to effectively and freely move in the space to manipulate the opponent/s."
"Move,stop and think. Training slowly is logical if you want to learn correctly."

Good training last night, really focusing on refining the basics and making those small changes and tweaks to improve people training.
It is important to remember that no matter what level you are at there are always improvements to be made.
Please remember that there is no training next week, but trading will resume as normal the week after.
