The Atlanta Bujinkan Dojo is led by Roy Wilkinson, a highly experienced martial artist and direct student of Grandmaster Dr. Masaaki Hatsumi. As chief instructor, he continues the legacy of Stephen Hayes and Bud Malmstrom, who helped establish Bujinkan training in Atlanta decades ago. Roy is dedicated to teaching Budo Taijutsu not as a sport, but as a complete martial discipline that blends tradition, practical self-defense, and personal growth. His approach emphasizes respect, authenticity, and quality training, creating an environment where students can develop both physical skills and mental discipline.
