Hi Evrybody....well now you even have a Jinenkan-man joining up.....uuuuhhhhhhhh This is NOT to start a big discussion...I just want to hear your personal opinion..NOT your dojos opinion. In the Jinenkan we are only 400 people training around the world. So seminars/training is very intense and personal. I have had many good talks with sensei and david hewitt. The opinion in the Jinenkan is that it is good with cross-training. It gives you a lot of input and experienses. I have NEVER heard any Jinenkan-man talking bad about Bujinkan or genbukan. But I have heard a lot of bad stuff from Bujinkan: "manaka-san used to be a drunk.....he just interested in selling videos...he is no good"..etc...etccc.... I must say this disapoints mee....we are still the same family, and we of course have diffrent opinions. I know most of the Bujinkan dojo-leaders in denmark from the old days...and we have decided to participate at eachother seminars if you feel like it. We dont want to discuss...we just want to train and learn... I just hope it could be the same evrywhere
Just my own humble opinion here, but I bear no ill will whatsoever towards the other ninjutsu organizations. I never speak badly of anyone in those organizations (I am in Bujinkan, by the way). I would have no problem at all with members of the different groups training together or co-sponsoring seminars. I think you might find this same attitude elsewhere in my dojo, as well.
