Jonathan Kruger is TEMAA's National Instructor for Zambia and an associate member of Bushinkai. He has studied Jujutsu and Judo for over 22 years, initially studying under his father Shihan John Kruger who was in turn a student of Joe Grant-Grierson 10th Dan, the founding father of Judo and Jujutsu in Zambia. Hanshi Grant-Grierson introduced Judo to Zambia in 1954 having studied under Dr Henry Johnston who founded the "Kodokwan" in Cape Town in 1928. Johnston was a student of the legendary Seishi Teppei, the man reputed to have taught Tenjin Shinyo Ryu Jujutsu to the famous Vernon Bell who founded the British Karate movement.

Jonathan commenced his study in 1986 and in 1991 went to to Osaka near Tennoji city. He fought for Zambia in the open weight category in World Judo championships in 1995 held in Chiban Makuhari Japan. While in Japan he also studied Aikijujutsu. Since returning to Zambia he has done a tremendous amount of work in helping underprivileged and terminally ill children in Zambia. Bushinkai is proud to count him as not only an associate member and national instructor but also an honourary member of the Bushin Ryu family.
