mmljpp Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 i would go with goju ryu because i trained in shotokan very linear hard style my friend trains in it though and loves it so whatever you like i recomend going to both schools Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shoshinkan Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 The 2 best ways of looking at the differences, generally would be -1. the kata sets are often different in technique, principles and strategys2. the common methods of training again are differentOf course there is alot of mix up as well, so it is difficult to be clear.There is of course common ground as both arts were developed on Okinawa, but the same they are not IMO.

unknownstyle Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 Nah, I've trained both Shotokan and Shorin-ji Ryu karate while in an umbrellla organisation that included Goju.Shorin-ji is higher in the stance than Shotokan and stresses an avoid his force precept so is softer. Goju is very hard in their kata but hey,they all spar the same!!! the shorinji i have been taught is force meets force, is what you learn the mainland style or is it okinawan and under what teacher "Live life easy and peacefully, but when it is time to fight become ferocious."
