At Bujinkan Australia (Beenleigh Dojo), students have the opportunity to learn and practise Bujinkan Budo Taijutsu, also known as Ninjutsu. This Japanese martial art has evolved over a 1000-year period of warfare and peace in Japan. Despite its ancient origins, Bujinkan Budo Taijutsu is proven to be highly effective and adaptive to modern self-defence needs.
The instructors at Bujinkan Australia are highly experienced and skilled practitioners. Dai Shihan Jamie Mac Aninch, the head instructor, has been running the Bujinkan Australia Dojo for over 30 years, making it the longest-standing Bujinkan Dojo in the country. The Dojo also has a new branch on the Gold Coast instructed by Go Dan, Chris Hogan.
In training sessions, students learn a variety of techniques, both unarmed and with weapons. Unarmed techniques include punches, kicks, throws, joint locks, pressure point control, grappling, and more, while weapons training covers a range of traditional Japanese weaponry such as swords, spears, staffs, and knives. Students also learn Ninja weapons like shuriken (throwing stars) and shuki (hand claws).
Bujinkan Budo Taijutsu emphasises natural movements, using grace and naturalness to overcome speed and power. The training focuses on developing “true strength” through subtle movements, evasiveness, adjustment of position, and utilising the body as a whole. Jissen Gata, or real fighting style, is a key component of the training, ensuring practicality and effectiveness in self-defence situations.
Regardless of gender, size, shape, or fitness level, anyone can participate in Bujinkan Budo Taijutsu. The self-defence training provided at the Bujinkan Dojo is suitable for all individuals. It is unique among most martial arts practised today as it retains its warrior heritage while still being relevant and effective in modern times.
