Shorinryu Sensei Posted March 21, 2005 Posted March 21, 2005 Hello everybody! Does anyone know Joshinmon Shorin Ryu? Before I started shotokan, i was practicing Joshinmon Shorin Ryu. The style's founder is Hoshu Ikeda. Olivier Prior to your post, I've never heard of it. There's not a whole lot on Google about it. My bud Shorin Ryuu will no doubt post something, and he's the most knowledgable guy on this forum IMHO about different systems, especially Okinawan systems. My nightly prayer..."Please, just let me win that PowerBall Jackpot just once. I'll prove to you that it won't change me!"
Jussi Häkkinen Posted March 21, 2005 Posted March 21, 2005 I know about it. It's a spinoff style of Shorinji-Ryu Renshinkan (that is founded by Isamu Tamotsu, student of Okinawan Shorin-Ryu Seibukan's founder, Zenryo Shimabukuro) that is founded by Ikeda Hoshu who parted from Renshinkan in 1960's. Ikeda Hoshu's Joshin-mon is a legitimate Japanese school of karate. It's characteristics are pretty much same as Renshinkan's - kata list comes from Kyan Chotoku's tradition (Sukunaihayashi) and technique-wise it differs from Itosu-line of Shorin-ryu a bit.
