Hello all, I was curious if anyone could give a listing of kata used in ShorinRyu ShorinKan.

Thanks :karate:

A punch should stay like a treasure in the sleeve. It should not be used indiscrimately.

I used to do Shorinkan.

The official empty hand kata for Shorinkan are the following:

Fukyuugata Ichi, Fukyuugata Ni, Fukyuugata San

Kihon Shodan, Kihon Nidan, Kihon Sandan

Pinan Shodan, Pinan Nidan, Pinan Sandan, Pinan Yondan, Pinan Godan

Naihanchi Shodan, Naihanchi Nidan, Naihanchi Sandan

Passai Sho, Passai Dai

Chinto

Kusanku Sho, Kusanku Dai

Gojushiho

The official weapons kata for Shorinkan are the following:

Shushi no Kun (Yamanni Ryu - Shorinkan)

Sakugawa no Kun (Yamanni Ryu - Shorinkan)

Kubo no Kun (Yamanni Ryu - Shorinkan)

Sakugawa no Kun Dai Ni (Shugoro no Sakugawa no Kun)

Nakaima no Kama (Shorinkan no Kama Dai Ichi)

Shugoro no Kama (Shorinkan no Kama Dai Ni)

Shugoro no Tonfa (Shorinkan no Tonfa)

Shorinkan no Nunchaku Dai Ichi

Tonaki no Nunchaku (Shorinkan no Nunchaku Dai Ni)

Nakaima Kenkou no Sai Dai Ichi (Shorinkan no Sai Dai Ichi)

Nakaima Kenkou no Sai Dai Ni (Shorinkan no Sai Dai Ni)

Shugoro no Sai (Shorinkan no Sai Dai San)

Shugoro no Eku (Shorinkan no Eku)

Now there are extra ones I had learned in association with Kyoshi Doug Perry or his students (my teacher was Sam Ahtye), and they are as follows:

Hakutsuru

Rokishu

Takemyoshi no Nuntebo Dai Ichi

Miyazato no Tekko Dai Ichi

Miyazato no Tekko Dai Ni

Takemyoshi no Tekko Dai Ni

Tanbo no Kata

Hamahiga no tonfa

There are more extra "optional" kata, but I never learned them. (I also had more kata learned from other styles, but I haven't listed them here)

Now that I am sort of "nonaligned" and under a different teacher, my kata syllabus is much, much smaller and I really do prefer it that way. At some point, you turn into a kata collector and it is hard to refine the ones you already know.
