About
A martial arts school in Glasgow called Bujinkan Glasgow Omou Dojo. Located close to the city centre, it is only a 5-minute walk from St Georges Cross subway station. The training hall has been established since 2001 and aims to pass on the teachings of grandmaster Dr Masaaki Hatsumi and the traditions of the 9 martial arts schools that make up the Bujinkan Ninjutsu.
At Bujinkan Glasgow Omou Dojo, they specialise in the Japanese Martial Art of ninjutsu, which is both a samurai and ninpo art. Bujinkan Ninjutsu is known to be one of the most comprehensive martial arts systems available, encompassing fitness, unarmed combat, and weapons training. The school provides a friendly and supportive training environment, fostering a sense of community within the club. They promote a non-competitive atmosphere, prioritising the safety and enjoyment of all members.
The Bujinkan Glasgow Omou Dojo Martial Arts club is sponsored by the Bujinkan Edinburgh Kouryuu Dojo and Bujinkan Huddersfield Kouryuu Dojo. They are dedicated to training in the nine martial arts that make up the Bujinkan (Ninjutsu), which includes strikes, locks, throws, grappling, sword techniques, various sticks, knives, and a wide range of hand weapons. Rather than treating martial arts as just a hobby or fitness routine, Bujinkan Glasgow Omou Dojo believes in incorporating it into one's life as a way of enhancing it.
The school follows the teachings of 9 schools within the Bujinkan system, led by Grandmaster Masaaki Hatsumi. These schools include Togakure Ryu Ninpo Happo Hiken, Gyokko Ryu Kosshijutsu Happo Hiken, Koto Ryu Koppojutsu Happo Hiken, Shinden Fudo Ryu Ninpo Happo Hiken, Kukishin Ryu Taijutsu Happo Hiken, Takagiyoshin Ryu Jutaijutsu Happo Hiken, Kumogakure Ryu Ninpo Happo Hiken, Gyokushin Ryu Ninpo Happo Hiken, and Gikan Ryu Koppojutsu Happo Hiken.
