Daikomyosai 2008, Seminar and Banquet + Black Belt Seminar
Black Belt Training will be on Sunday, Dec 14th.
We hope to see you there!
Please note this is a date change. Our original date conflicted with the annual trip for Daikomyosai in Japan. We hope you understand and we look forward to seeing you on Dec 13th!
On Saturday, the Seminar will follow the long-standing Atlanta tradition, inviting all Black Belts attending the seminar to teach a technique or concept that is important to them, along with the philosophy behind it. This is an excellent opportunity to see what other instructors are doing and get different perspectives from other practitioners.
Saturday night, the Dinner & Party will be an excellent time as always! We'll have an opportunity for some awards & presentations, along with a great time with friends, socializing, music, jokes and stories, etc. Come join in and wrap up 2008 with us in Atlanta!
The Black Belt Seminar on Sunday will be limited to practitioners at Shodan level and higher, and will follow a format similar to Saturday.

Seminar with Roy Wilkinson & JM Serrano, 15th Dans
"SEMINARIO INTERNACIONAL" will be a collaboration of two Bujinkan Master Instructors, Roy Wilkinson (Atlanta, USA) and JM Serrano (Alicante, Spain). Mr. Serrano is one of the pioneers of Bujinkan Ninjutsu in Spain and has given seminars throughout the Spanish-speaking world, in Europe and Latin America. Mr. Wilkinson is one of the most senior Bujinkan instructors in the world outside of Japan, and has led numerous seminars around Europe and in America. Both have earned the highest grading possible in this art, Judan Kugyo or 15th Dan.
This seminar will be a great training opportunity and a great time too. These two gentlemen offer a wealth of knowledge, skill and experience in their teaching that is hard to beat for quality and effectiveness. The heart and spirit that they bring to the art is both warm and powerful, and is very evident in their training. It will be well worth the trip to attend this special training event.
