I posted a vid by these guys a while back. Just came across another. Confusingly the first one mentions Genbukan links (and Genbukan logos), whereas the bottom carries a "Bujin" logo. Some vids they have say they are showing ONLY "Kentando Ryu" and not showing Genbukan Ninpo Bugei in the vids, though most just use "Ninjutsu" in the titles. Anyone know of them?

(My original comments when I saw the first vid were "Some very unfamiliar stuff here. No real balance taking. Axe kicks (TKD?). Trying to hurt uke after he has already tapped, and smiling at the camera")
I know ive seen that first video on here somewhere. Those "axe" kicks were what triggered my memory..
Personally I wish these people woud go away and stop polluting whatever credibility our arts have left..........sigh............
I haven't a clue. Perhaps they are in the process of joining or something, but obviously this isn't Genbukan martial arts.
http://www.genbukan.de/dojo-leipzig.html Shows Oliver Fischer, the same guy. And links to the site http://www.kentando.de.to/ The site has links back to Genbukan. Oddly there is this mention only of Bujinkan training: (google translation with errors) my name is Soke-Shihan (Shidoshi) O.Fischer, I'm 42 years old and have been doing for 34 years martial arts / sports, since about 24 years I teach. In karate, I have the 2nd Thurs Dan in Aikido, 1 Dan graduated from the training karate teacher and have a racing manner until 2002, operated in light contact kickboxing. Through my father, I learned besides Bujinkan Nin Jutsu (specializing in Taijutsu & Kenjutsu), Iaido, techniques of Krav Maga, Dim Mak, This page shows he has purchased a "sokeship" cert and other paper: http://taijutsu-kentando-leipzig.npage.de/document-and-the-path-of-development.html All very confusing.
I would love to be a fly on the wall while he is explaining to Tanemura Sensei about his being a soke. Edit: Oh and to the Genbukan guys, it looks like you are finally getting the nutters attaching themselves to you too. :evil:
As far as these videos, I cannot fathom them trying to pass off what is shown here as Genbukan Ninpo. The videos do say "Goshinjutsu," and not "Ninpo" in the title, so perhaps this is stuff they teach as a different art. Like I said, it certainly isn't any Genbukan martial arts, but I can see where people would get the idea it was from the beginning of the video. Not a fan of that at ALL!!
And can pass that knowledge onto you yes you! 'Dont be content in your pathetic boring life friend ! Reach for the stars, and grab an armful ....blah...blah your friends and family will notice the 'new you' immediately , women will fall at your feet!.....blah blah.....' ***note DVD and textbooks for soke home study course sold separately, soke ship council badge and plaque are extra. NB. Your experiance with women, freinds and family may vary from illustrated***
For 99.99 dollars extra, you can become a blackbelt in 6 days through a strong mental connexion with the soke, and this without any need for dvds!!!!
Even from an Indie it looks pretty sketchy. Those kicks, personally I'd like to have applied, looks like a great opening to get himself owned. I don't see power being created from any movement. Looks like hell.
