"Bujinkan" means "Warrior God Hall" a name given to the martial art by its creator Hatsumi Sensei.

"Budo" means "Warrior Ways" or simply Martial Arts in Japan. So for example, Judo, Karate and Aikido are all types of budo.

"Taijutsu" means "Body Skills". This art uses whole body movement.

So, you could say that Bujinkan Budo Taijutsu means:

"The warrior god martial arts of using the whole body".
