Canadian77 Posted January 24, 2014 Posted January 24, 2014 We have a guest instructor coming to our dojo who is a Goshindo Master. I was just wondering if any of you could tell me what Goshindo is? I do plan to attend the class, but I was just curious to know about it beforehand. I'm still a white belt so this is all new to me.
sensei8 Posted January 24, 2014 Posted January 24, 2014 Combine Kempo with Jiu Jitsu; you've got Goshindo. Better yet...http://www.goshindosamurai.com/Possibly, picture/video's are worth a thousand words/watches.Let us know how the training went! **Proof is on the floor!!!
Canadian77 Posted January 24, 2014 Author Posted January 24, 2014 Thank you! The video is helpful to get an idea. The event is in a month, but I'll be sure to update how it went afterward!
Wastelander Posted January 24, 2014 Posted January 24, 2014 I can't see the web page that sensei8 shared, since I'm at work at the moment. I will say that the word "goshindo" simply means "way of self defense" and has been used to describe a wide variety of martial arts systems. The word "goshin-jutsu" ("art/science of self defense") gets used much the same way. Your mileage may vary greatly on the material presented.

Canadian77 Posted January 24, 2014 Author Posted January 24, 2014 Interesting. Ok, so essentially it sounds like it will focus on self-defense material. We do cover a lot of various self-defense techniques in our classes. It will be interesting to see what the guest instructor teaches.
bushido_man96 Posted January 24, 2014 Posted January 24, 2014 It might be a worthwhile course to attend. Please let us know how you liked it, and what you learned. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com
sensei8 Posted January 24, 2014 Posted January 24, 2014 Don't freak out! Remember, you're a beginner, therefore, when you train with them, they'll keep you training at that level. Lots of stuff in the video isn't at the beginner level. Instead of a throw, it might be just a simple beginner level lock.Have fun and learn!! **Proof is on the floor!!!
quinteros1963 Posted January 25, 2014 Posted January 25, 2014 Goshindo could also refer to a style taught in central NY started by Frank Van Lenten. Its a mix of the different styles that he studied in the 50's and 60's (Goju Ryu, Shoryn Ryu, and other. The past is no more; the future is yet to come. Nothing exist except for the here and now. Our grand business is not to see what lies dimly at a distance, but to do what's clearly is clearly at hand...Lets continue to train!
