I have been doing a lot of research lately and I'm finally getting closer to the information I'm Looking for. Funikoshi along with the other masters of Okinawan arts, all designed katas that were originally based on Kung Fu forms. Can anyone help me fill in the blanks on the List bellow or possibly have any corrections? I'm trying to draw a lineage back to the original martial arts that influence All the Ryu Kyu island martial arts. If you could correct, fill in, or help me out down bellow it would be much appreciated. Also If you have some interesting information about the Ryu Arts or Shotokan and their lineage through the Fujian province of china Please post it. I have dated Funikoshi all the way back to Chuan Fa but I cant find which shaolin monk taught Kusanku. There is absolutely nothing before Kusanku aka Kwang Shang Fu (1660?-1762). Supposedly: Heian Shodan - Heian Nidan - Heian Sandan - Heian Yondan - Heian Godan - Tekki Shodan - Tiger Style Tekki Nidan - Tiger Style Tekki Sandan - Tiger Style Bassai Dai - Bassai Sho - Kanku Dai Kanku Sho Enpi or Empi Jion - shaolin roots Gankaku - White Crane Hangetsu - White Crane Jitte - shaolin roots Chinte - White Crane Sochin Meikyo White Crane Jiin Gojushiho Dai Gojushiho Sho Nijushiho - Dragon Stance Wankan Unsu - Dragon Stance
