Anthony has been involved in Budo since the mid 1980s. After stumbling upon the book, Ninja Assassins, by Brian Adams, Anthony established a contact with Stephen Hayes.  In March of 2005, Anthony passed the Godan test in Japan, and in March of 2006 he was promoted to 6th Dan. Anthony Lucas was promoted to 7th Dan in April of 2007.

Update - Anthony was promoted to hachidan 8th Dan while visiting Japan in Apil of  2008.

  

Anthony is an advent explorer of metaphysics.  In 1998 he was taught the Japanese healing arts of Reiki & Seichem and eventually finished his Master/Teacher certification. Anthony is also a trained Hypnotist, and has used his intuitive skills in helping others to reach their innate goals. His goals now are to build a reputable school of Bujinkan Budo Taijutsu, and to encourage others to follow their dreams of becoming what they desire to be in studying Dr. Masaaki Hatsumi’s art of the ninja.

    Anthony extends his gratitude and blessings to Hatsumi Sensei and all of the Japanese Shihans for selflessly sharing their traditions, culture, and vision of Budo. Anthony has been tirelessly working with  a other dojo's  in creating and forming what is considered today (present) a Bujinkan community.
