The intensive Daito ryu seminar held

Posted on Categories Uncategorized

The past weekend, in the Hombu Dojo of the Organization for the study of traditional Japanese martial arts – Taiyou e no Michi, an intensive weekend seminar was organized under the leadership of Igor Dovezenski (shidoin).

On this seminar kata from the first set of Hiden Mokuroku (ikkajo) were practiced, as well as the standing techniques (tachi ai) from the second set known as Nikkajo. On this event several members of Daito ryu Macedonia – Koryu Dojo participated, and guided by the instructor Dovezenski were training the techniques of this ancient Japanese samurai school restlessly. 
In October, our teacher, shihan Antonino Cherta, is going to visit us again and transmit the kata from the third level, or Sankajo, so this seminar was a good small preparation for the big event that is going to take place soon.

„Kenjutsu under the stars of Lipac V“ seminar held

Posted on Categories Uncategorized

In honor of our teacher for Daito ryu Aikibudo, shihan Antonino Certa, this weekend on the Mountain Lipac we held the seminar „Kenjutsu under the stars of Lipac“, where the members of the Koryu Dojo  learned the techniques of the school Ono ha Itto ryu (Takeda-den).

On the fifth in a row event of this kind, 16 of our members took participation, and the accent was put on several principles and techniques, among them suri age and suri otoshi (kiri otoshi). To recapture the atmosphere better, we will transmit part of the statements of two participants.
Marko Opachikj: „The training was excellent, and yet, on the fifth in a row seminar sensei Dovezenski showed us the three principles of the school. He described them really well, translated them, transmitted them vividly and plainly, he combined them, captured them clearly for us, ‘chewed them’ for us, and all we had to do was train and I think we presented ourselves in our best light.
It was a night to remember. Candlelight dinner, in a warm kitchen, with the most tasty beans, a lot of laughter and happy people. You could feel that all the time in the air.“  
Zoran Todorovski: „This was a training that every one of us wished for. Countless times swords raised, countless cuts, blocks with shinogi, mono-uchi, kisaki, kiai. Training, kuden, training, kuden. Lots of forms, lots of ways and all that until infinity. We slowly unravel the secrets of this kenjustu art, and for a moment we could feel the smell and the taste of koryu. The feeling is like you walk on the path of enlightenment with the purpose to understand the essence of existence.“

The School of classical Japanese martial arts Daito ryu Macedonia – Koryu Dojo, with the support of the Organization for teaching traditional Japanese martial arts – Taiyou e no Michi, for the fifth time organizes the traditional outdoor seminar, called „Kenjustu under the stars of Lipac V“.

This event is held once a year during the first weekend of June, in honor of our Daito ryu Aikibudo teacher – shihan Antonino Cherta.

This powerful swordsmanship art, was mandatory for all members of the famous samurai clan Takeda in the past. Due to her simplicity and efficiency, the school was one of the two official kenjutsu arts that were taught by the subjects of the family of the Japanese shoguns of the clan Tokugawa.

The members of our dojo anticipate this event impatiently. During the two-day outdoor training, at the top of the mythical mountain Lipac, the students of all degrees have the opportunity to get to know each other better.
