IMPORTANT: Our goal in producing this DVD is to provide a reference for junior students of the Bujinkan Dojo looking for materials to supplement their training in a dojo under a competant teacher. It is NOT a definitive work - merely our best effort to provide something useful.

The Tenchijin Ryaku no Maki is a large and complex work and even senior Japanese shihan fully licensed to teach Hatsumi Sensei’s art often show variations while teaching this material. Our presentation of the material is how we interpreted the techniques on the day of filming. Some of our ideas may have already changed.
