Dedicated to Authentic Training

Empowering the Community Through Authentic Bujinkan Training Rooted in Humility, Harmony, and Service

Class Overview

Our classes offer more than physical training—they are a space to grow as a whole person in multiple ways. In the authentic Bujinkan tradition, training is rooted in three principles:

Ten (Heaven): self-development, mental clarity, and spiritual growth. Chi (Earth): martial skills and practical self-defence for real situations. Jin (Human): health and well-being, though Amatsu insights.

While most modern martial arts focus only on fighting, we emphasise all three areas, merging into a complete human being. Our approach is open and flexible: take what resonates, leave what doesn’t, and progress at your own pace.

Martial arts are not about fighting or technique, but a path to “develop a pure heart” (Hatsumi Sensei), We share this practice as a gift to you for the greater good. and beyond.

About Bujinkan Ninpo Taijutsu, Ninjutsu Training

The Bujinkan is a traditional Japanese martial arts system comprising nine schools, mostly Ninjutsu and other Samurai lineages. Their origins stretch back to ancient times. Some schools were secretive and reserved for select practitioners, others part of the Imperial military heritage.

Grandmaster Masaaki Hatsumi Sensei collected these schools under the name Bujinkan Ninpo Taijutsu. The principles of Ninjutsu center on avoiding conflict whenever possible and resolving disputes peacefully. The goal is not to master fighting techniques but to find unity with nature, through non-violent and conflict-free practices. As such, we cultivate our hearts, through good Dharma, a central aspect of the Eastern traditions, and on Bodhidharma, the founder of Oriental martial arts.

Unlike martial arts focused on one skill like striking or grappling, Bujinkan teaches all approaches together and beyond. Whether facing armed or unarmed opponents, single or multiple attackers, Bujinkan teaches how to overcome any encounter—ideally peacefully—without relying on strength or athleticism, making it effective regardless of age, gender, or physical ability.

The nine martial arts included in Bujinkan training are:

• Togakure-ryu

From the Instructor

The purpose of our dojo is to be 'zero', beyond ranks: no one is superior to anyone, and no one is inferior to anyone. As for me, I am nothing. I am not here to be your teacher. I am here to learn from you. The only place to find your true teacher is to look within yourself. I am here only to offer a gift, to share my experience from the heart.

We are not training for profit, notoriety, or glory, we are not in competition with anyone and we train to be 'zero'. If you prefer to train elsewhere, here are a few other dojos we know of in the London area that you can look into. Central London Dojo, King Dojo, Yeo Dojo and Ninjutsu London (and more to be searched).
