Most Ninjutsu / Budo Taijutsu Students are looking for a solid home where they are free to study what they want when they want with whomever they want while they have a standardized set of proven teachings to teach their students. They are looking for a place that rank is equal to knowledge, where they can get proper certification for themselves and their students, have access to unlimited knowledge on the art, get Dojo building materials so they can earn a decent living sharing what they love (or at least pay for a training trip each year), help with their questions, attend an occasional seminar event where they make lasting friendships. Well this is what we are are all about.

Doshi Richard Van Donk began his Ninjutsu studies with Soke Hatsumi in the very early 1980’s and before his retirement from teaching he visited Soke Hatsumi at least twice a year. 

We take a solid stance on having a strategic standard that benefits everyone while offering additional flexibility so everyone can grow and learn how they desire.

ROADMAP to joining IBDA if your Bujinkan Rank came from someone else.

Welcome to IBDA and Thank You for considering training with us and growing in the arts together as a family. Many students and instructors decide to train with us and continue their ranking certification grading’s with us after training with other instructors in the Bujinkan system for many different reasons.

Most of them want a solid standard curriculum to know why they are given a grade which we openly offer. We want all of our rank grading’s to mean something special for everyone. It is a personal journey and since we think of grading’s as a way of showing the measurement of how far a student has travel down the path and that they have effectively learned the material to a certain level. Especially as many people who first start never thinking they will become a teacher someday end up becoming a teacher to at least a few others, if not in a large dojo. Ninpo Taijutsu/ Ninjutsu training is so much fun that it is contagious.

Here are our guidelines for joining us, getting advanced ranking certification and how a student can become affiliated with IBDA. Again, We welcome you to the IBDA training!!

RANKING ADVANCEMENT- MATERIAL REQUIRED

SHIDOSHI TRAINING

• Becoming a teacher of the “Warrior Ways of Enlightenment”
• How to be a good teacher
• Lesson Plans – daily, weekly, monthly and yearly
• Handling Students
• Your responsibility as a teacher
• Personal growth – learning to become a good communicator, leader, thinking on your feet, quick decision making

A complete Shidoshi Teacher Training Course is coming soon to IBDA Students. Like everyone else you begin your training at 10th kyu. We all start the journey with the first level of learning the 9th kyu material. It is wonderful if you can attend our dojo classes directly or train with a certified instructor. If this is not available to you we have a complete Distant learning program that can take you as far as you want to go. Interactive Online teachings are being created as well. 

While you are training to get your blackbelt in Ninjutsu you can also study how to teach the art to others. Most students will start this Shidoshi training when they reach the 5th kyu level which is about half way to Shodan. Some will start right away. 

So that when you get your Shodan (or Nidan) you will already be trained to open up your own IBDA Ninjutsu dojo and those that complete this course will be granted a Shidoshi-ho ( a direct student under Shihan Van Donk) issued by the International Bujinkan Dojo Association.

We consider getting your Shodan a major Achievement Level. The next Achievement Level 2 would be earning your Shidoshi-ho. 

Achievement Level 3 is to advance through the 2nd dan – 5th dan educational materials we have carefully established to prepare you for the 5th dan test and once you pass this test with Doshi Richard Van Donk you will become a fully licensed teacher, a Shidoshi (Achievement Level 4). Achievement Level 5 would be becoming a Shihan. 

Although the greatest level of all is what you will feel inside, the changes you have made in your life and how that has affected others because of your hard earned efforts. These studies have proven to change lives. 

Would Sell your BlackBelt experience for $50,000?

We have asked many people over the years that have achieved Blackbelt level from us “Would you sell your Blackbelt knowledge, changes it has made in your life, impact it has made on others and the friends you have made for $50,000?” NO WAY. In one class of 20 Blackbelts all said NO to $1,000,000 – They said they would turn down one million dollars! Now that says something!

You can be a Blackbelt in techniques and
a White belt at sharing it.

It is one thing to be able to do techniques and another to be able to share the teachings in a way that others can understand it and be able to do it well. This course will train you how to set up training, create schedules, themes and select material for your classes. It will also teach you how to instruct a class and how to handle dojo situations. It will also teach you how to interact with your students.

You can be a Blackbelt in techniques and a Black belt at sharing it and a White belt at running a dojo and your school will fail..

In addition to this course will be the IBDA “Dojo Wealth Building Course” that will instruct you from A-Z on how to run a profitable dojo so you can get paid doing what you love. This course will also be an online study so that feedback can be given.
