Event Details:

When:

  • November 26-27, 2022

  • 10am - 5pm (both days)
    Registration starts Sat at 9:30am

Where:

Training Focus:

  • Koto Ryu Koppojutsu will be the focus of study for the weekend.

Cost:

  • $150 CAD for the weekend or $75/day

What to bring:

  • Training weapons: bokken (daito/shoto/tanto), hanbo, shinai; iai & bo (if you have them). Some training tools will be available at Shin Ryu Bujinkan if you don’t have your own weapons.

  • Both COVID vaccine doses and a booster are required to attend the seminar. Any masking requirements will be determined closer to the seminar date, but masks are generally recommended at the seminar during active training sessions (not required during water breaks and lunch).

  • Food and water for breaks - we’ll be taking a 1.5 hour break for lunch, but the dojo is about 20 minutes from in-town food locations. We plan to have some sandwich and soup offerings available for participants over lunch if they wish (please let us know about any allergies).

    Please note: We have a student with anaphylactic contact allergies to pork products, so please do not bring pork/bacon/ham products to the dojo itself, and please wash your hands and face with soap before resuming training if you’ve had pork products over lunch.

There will be a dinner on Saturday evening with Mark Vandehey Sensei at TBD (likely someplace with steak). Details forthcoming on this.
