Chunmonchek Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 Does anyone have a glossary or link to a glossary for Okinawan Goju Ryu?Thanks in advanceIs there anything that you are looking for specifically?

cheesefrysamurai Posted March 11, 2013 Author Share Posted March 11, 2013 Honestly I don't know. When I was looking for a dojo, i found tons. I didnt like the way the others looked. I found my current dojo, i looked into the sensei who is from Staten Island New York and his sensei is very well respected and that dojo has been there over 40 years.I know he went to train in Japan with Eiichi Miyazato Sensei in his Jundokan dojo Nothing Worth Having Is Easily Obtained - ESPECIALLY RANK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark Shogun Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 IOGKF is Morio Higoanna's organisation that split away from Miyazoto's Jindokan. I read that there was some bad blood between them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SolidAir Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 The dojo i train with are a similar lineage one of my sensei's swears buy these books :"Traditional Karate-Do: Okinawa Goju Ryu, Vol. 1: The Fundamental Techniques" by Higaonna Sensei.There are four volumes all words, kata and strikes are in them, also check out him on You Tube all the kata are on video there too.I bought the books from ebay as they are not in print anymore cost me about £200 over the last two years but they are worth it. Hope this helps Be like water ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
