After only around seven months, the second Samurai Camp took place in the beautiful setting of Sri Lanka – an event that not only made the hearts of the participants beat faster, but also stimulated anticipation for the next but one Samurai Camp in mid-March 2025. Next time, it will take place at four different locations in Sri Lanka, providing even more adventures and experiences. Saiko-Shihan Christian Wiederanders traveled alone from Germany to lead the fantastic program on site and take the participants on a fascinating journey through time to the Japanese samurai and their weapons. The enthusiasm was palpable everywhere, and not without reason: four TV stations were on site to report on the Tatsu-Ryu-Bushido. Three exciting days of training began early in the morning and ended late in the evening. The participants were full of enthusiasm and motivation, and there was no room for boredom. One of the highlights of the camp was the belt examinations: Dilnika Ashna Soysa and Suvindu Nileka Thilakarathne proudly passed their belt examination for 4th Kyu (Construction) grade, while Shenal Fernando and Kaushalya Nirmana successfully passed the examination for 1st Dan (Black) in Tatsu-Ryu-Bushido. The participants were presented with beautiful medals and certificates in recognition of their achievements. Saiko Shihan Christian Wiederanders received a special honor: his induction into the Hall of Fame in Sri Lanka is a testament to his tireless commitment and passion for the martial art. Preparations for 2025 are already underway and there are many exciting plans: the construction of the new Tatsu-Ryu-Bushido Dojo on the second level in Ragama, the establishment of a new university for martial arts instructors and the expansion of new groups in Malle (Maldives) and Dubai (United Arab Emirates). A big thank you goes to the whole family of Renil Fernando for their great preparation and execution of this extraordinary event! We look forward to the next adventure in 2025!
