Dear / Buyus as:
For nearly 30 years, we have great luck in Spain and the opportunity to share our experiences and expand as Budokan and as human beings, through participation in Taikai, courses and other events sponsored under a common denominator, Hatsumi Sensei.
I have almost thirty courses and seminars organized in my city, Almeria (mirror of the sea), with the help of my friends, pupils and teachers who supported me and taught. I have the great pleasure and honour to be able to return the Bujinkan used as an excuse for us we find and invite them to Taikai taught by Shihan Pedro Fleitas 24-25-26 the next October in Almeria.
In order to make it a memorable encounter and endure not only in our retinas, but especially in our hearts, I wanted to strive to offer 3 jewels (san shin) during this Taikai.
In the first cornerstone, we have an idyllic place that will carry us to the era from which some of our schools, and today we can work just as did 400 years ago in the same environment: A strength of the seventeenth century completely restored and ready especially for this event.
In the second cornerstone, we will conduct a cultural exhibit in the tower above the biggest strength. In it we will expose more than 100 originals and replicas of items related to our real budô and medieval Japanese culture. Since authentic Japanese armor, weapons until exact used by Ninja of yesteryear in order to accomplish their goals, all with the assembly and worthy of the best museum exhibition.
In the third jewel, I have a small tribute to your dedication and effort, not only because participation in this event, but for your work and dedication during the many courses and events that have been able to attend. That is why we also deserve a break and enjoy a small vacation during the Taikai, and since it is a great reunion, why not also come with the family?
Do not come alone / as, you are guaranteed a spot and environment alike. You can enjoy the hotel facilities and the fantastic beaches (blue flag of the EEC) located next to the hotel. Almeria has the largest number of hours of sun throughout Europe and the highest average annual temperature in Spain. But if you feel like you are not crystal clear waters, you will have snow, mountains, desert, theme parks… Ask us about what they want and help them to enjoy.
We also wanted to facilitate the work of transport. To this end we will have a large team of people to collect passengers at airport, port, railway station and bus that carried over to the hotel.
A big hug and we soon. Happiness all
