Hi Chrisw,

I recently spent about 8 months in Lake Placid, FL, and found a great Karate school there which taught shorin-ryu Renshinkan. I can't find a website for that school alone, but did find the website for the larger association and their headquarters in Gainesville: http://www.gainesvillekarate.com/

Hope this is helpful!

Shorin ryu is a beautiful martial art, keep up the good work!

Its ok and so is yours kenshin kan matsumura? Is your grandmaster fusei kise? He has his own classic version schools. is that what yours is?

I'm not totally clear on the history of the style, since I only practiced it for a few months, but my understanding is that it was founded by Isamo Tamotsu. Sounds like the technical name is actually Renshinkan shorinji ryu.

I have hear of your style and I have seen students from your style years ago. Interesting style with an interesting history. When I first started, many years ago, we did not have all the colored belts you young guys have awarded today. We had a 10 kyu system but only White, Green, Brown belts awarded at the student level. Before my time the number of colors were even less. As for your style, again rich in tradition and quite interesting. I am also facinated that, if I am reading it right, Pian 4 and Seisan are kata for Shodan. I never knew that about your style. I'm not saying it's bad I just never knew that. Good luck to you.
