I was wondering how to pronounce Genbukan & Bujinkan properley?

Do you pronounce them Gen-Bu-Kan (Jen-boo-can) & Bu-jin-kan (Boo-gin-can)

Im sorry if this seems a stupid question but I just want to make sure I am saying them correctly when I go and visit some classes.

Thanks

kan is pronounced more like "khan" than "can". Then again, it may depend where you are and the accents :)
