Dear customers,
The year of the Ox has begun and Sensei has asked us to emphasizes our training on Basics, Sword and to get into the feeling of Sainô (ability), Tamashii (soul) and Utsuwa (container). Therefore we have selected some new products to help you in this difficult task.
We are also happy to inform you that we will continue to sell the USB products as we have received many emails begging for them. The first USB on Basics is available again and we edited a new one after the fantastic seminar we have had in Paris with Sveneric Bogsater, last January.
You will find two new departments in our catalog. BujinWare is a collection of clothes to wear during and after training. It is composed of four sets of clothes that will developp through the year. The Benkyo collection is a series of T-shirts, Sweatshirts and caps to train indoor or outdoor. The Shizen collection offers nice sportswear to wear after training. The Yûgen collection is a set of clothes of high quality to wear outside of the Dôjô. The Kuma collection is a set of polar wear for outdoor training including jackets and hats.
The second department is the Heihô books library where you will find the most famous Japanese books ever written on th eart of war. Musashi, Yagyu, Takuan and a few others are aleready available. Those books should be on your shelves as they mainly speak about sword strategy and tactics.
Last, we made it possible for you to travel to Japan easily. For the last 15 years I have been working with a travel agency in Paris, specialized in Japan trips. They speak English and Japanese and can arrange any kind of trip to Japan for you whether you want to train or to train and visit this fantastic country. They know the Bujinkan and our needs and have been organizing those training trips for my students and me every four months. Check their prices.
