We are proud to host 10 year Japan resident and translator for Nagato sensei, Noguchi sensei and soke Hatsumi; Sleiman Azizi.
Sleiman has published the books "Shadow Inspiration: Dedications to a Budo Master", "The Art of Life and Death: Lessons in Budo from a Ninja Master", "Shadow Grove: Reflections through the Natural Art of Budo", "Cloud Break: Brushstrokes on the Sky", and "Dancing Embers: Offerings to a Dragon". Sleiman likes to emphasize that he is absolutely "scared to death of Hatsumi sensei."
"If people are planning to show up and think he's gonna show them where to put their hands and feet, they're going to be in for a rude awakening." - Bobby Eaton
Sleiman will not be taking us through scrolls, kata or techniques, but through a weekend of dojo-like atmosphere of training with soke Masaaki Hatsumi.
