Seminars are a fun way to deepen a student's training and level or understanding of this art. Seminars are for dojo members and other members of the Bujinkan community. There are no drop-ins for seminars.

October 19th and 20th
Away Seminar: Portland
Mark Vandehey, Daishihan
TenChiJin, Ku no Kata Theme

From Vandehey Sensei: All seminars are built upon the concepts and ideas from the previous to form a continuous cycle. You do not have to attend any previous seminars to attend current ones. There may be concepts or skills that you will be unfamiliar with, but there will be lots of people around to help. All seminars cost $60 for the weekend. $30 for a day. Make sure to bring swords, and any tools your dojo head comments on. If you do not have any, there will be some at the dojo you can borrow (while supplies last). Also, always bring water and snacks. All Portland seminars are being held at Northwest Bujinkan under Rob Bascue.

What Our Students Are Saying

An incredible dojo. I've taken other styles like American kenpo, boxing, karate, jujutsu, and kendo. This is by far the best style I've taken. The movements are very precise and fluid, extensive weapons, and unarmed combat training. I'd recommend this dojo to anyone interested in traditional Japanese martial arts or effective styles of self defense." - Raymond C., 5 Star Google Review

"Anyone who has spent time training in more than one dojo knows that they are definitely not all alike. However, comparing them is made more difficult given the vast array of martial arts one could study. On the other hand, it is very easy to tell when you find a great teacher of a complete martial art that happens to be the right fit for you.
Sensei Muir is a very knowledgeable and skilled practitioner as well as being an excellent teacher. He helps us find the contexts and insights beyond merely executing techniques. The other students come from a variety of backgrounds, and their diversity enriches the experience. I am grateful and humbled to have this opportunity train with all of them. The new facility, while awesome, is just an added bonus." - James P., 5 Star Google Review​

"Our family has been a part of this dojo for over 3 years. My children love their Sensei. He is patient with the children and will take the time to show proper technique not only during the class, but also after class if a child asks for help. He is very knowledgeable about the origins of Bujinkan and shares his knowledge with both the adult class and children's class. It also helps knowing that he goes to Japan to train with the Grand Master. I highly recommend this dojo!"
