About
My name is Doug Wilson, originally from the US (CA). I have been studying martial arts for almost 30 years, 20+ of those years in the Bujinkan. I have spent 14 of those years in Japan training at the Hombu Dojo. I act as a main interpreter for the Hombu Dojo and have co-translated the above books by Hatsumi Soke, released by Kodansha International. I feel that the time is right to provide my acquired information to the Bujinkan public about training in Japan. I guess I can say from my unique position and close proximity to Soke, I can provide a perspective that most can not. Here, I will post what I have recently learned, translated, experienced, and interpreted as well as been told to say. Some may find the content to be too direct or controversial. It is not meant to be, it is the truth provided in a “zero” way to those people who are interested in hearing it. It is not a place designed to draw fire from those who live online, expending energy arguing about things that mean nothing. I am a student of Hatsumi Soke and this is MY perspective. I hope to provide an insight to the dedicated practitioners of Hatsumi Soke’s Budo and the Bujinkan.

Paul and Rob are a synergistic team. Rob was showing some great drills for working on fundamental movements and then applying them, with Paul then taking those same ideas and translating it into “the feeling”. Then they’d get into applications of the same stuff with weapons (typically tanto, katana, hanbo, nawa) and applications versus multiple attackers. Major focus on taking the conflict out of combat. It was the most fun I’ve had training since Japan in December.
Dale I must agree.. It was some very cool stuff. I would like to thank the people that did come out and support this one of a kind event. We hope to put another one on again in the future. I think Paul and Rob are in a unique position living in Japan, training almost daily. Having them come out and show what is going on in Japan from two different views but yet the same is some great stuff……
It was nice to also hear both insights from Dale Seago and Bill Atkins both during the event and at the Q & A we had on Saturday night. Wonderful insights, truly a Buyu event. Let’s do another one soon!
