Dating back several hundred years, Bujinkan martial arts training includes unarmed self-defense (i.e. strikes, throws, holds, chokes, joint-locks) that relies on natural body movement (not muscles); and over a dozen samurai & ninja weapons.
Both Griffith Park Bujinkan and Franklin Canyon Bujinkan are managed by Dr. Dante Dionne and assisted by Dr. Christopher Lau under Bujinkan Seki Ryu dojo.
We are fortunate to have the patronage of several international and local Bujinkan Shihan with collectively over a hundred of years experience training Samuraijutsu and Ninjutsu. Firstly, placing our dojo under the Moti Nativ family tree, David Greenberg Sensei continues to provide support and guidance to our group. Eran Conforty Sensei, who resides in the Los Angeles area, has been a supporter since the beginnings of the Franklin Canyon dojo. In 2020 all training locations were consolidated under the Bujinkan Seki Ryu umbrella.
Notice: Participating Bujinkan GP instructors and all members have been fully vaccinated for CV-19.
Until there is a widespread cure for CV-19, we have made the following precautions mandatory for participation.
At present, the mandatory mask mandate for indoor training is on hold. Our entire group is fully vaccinated, so masks are optional when training in the park or indoors.
Please do not attend if you have been sick or have been around sick people in the past couple weeks.
Bring hand sanitizer for hygiene, a hand towel (for sweat) and plenty of water for hydration.
A release form will be provided indicating that all participants agree to abide by these rules.
