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.

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.

Every day I learn about a new style! This place is amazing.

The best victory is when the opponent surrenders

of its own accord before there are any actual

hostilities...It is best to win without fighting.

Wow, you guys sure are knowledgeable!

Yes, indeed, my So-Shihan is Hoshu Ikeda. Impressive guy indeed.

It's sad that i can no longer practice Joshinmon Shorin Ryu, because i moved, but the dojo i go to right now is quite good too!

Ah well. This forum is amazing =)

Hello,

I am a second degree black belt in the style of Joshinmon shorin ryu. I have studied many styles and I have to say that this one is the most dynamic and most incredible. I learned in Miami, and had many seminars with Sochihan Ideda.

My sensei is Felix Puga. Joshinmon has enriched my life and I recomend anyone to learn.

Email me if you wish to know more.

Are you still practicing Joshinmon?
