On Saturday, November 15th, from 11 AM to 4:30 PM, the Dayton Bujinkan Dojo will host a Fundamental Rokushakubojutsu Workshop. This workshop will focus on core movements incorporating the rokushakubo (6-foot stick, 六尺棒), covering essential kamae, striking basics, and kata of the Bujinkan. The workshop is open to all ranks, and new students are encouraged to attend. The workshop will be taught by Jeff Ochester with assistance from Dayton Bujinkan Dojo senior instructors.

• 11:00 AM: Bow-in, Kamae, and Ukemi

Attendees are encouraged to wear a full do-gi uniform and bring a notebook. While the Dayton Bujinkan Dojo will have training rokushakubo available, we encourage participants to bring their own if possible.

The event is reserved for young adult and adult members of the Dayton Bujinkan Dojo, past workshop participants, and approved guests. (If you haven't attended an event at the Dayton Bujinkan Dojo before, please request attendance prior to registering to avoid any issues.) The cost is $40 per person. Registration is free, pay at the door.
