I did Kobayashi for 2 years under the Iha lineage. What is your lineage? Also there are way too many fricking katas in that system.

Is Kobayashi Ryu the Itosu or Matsumura lineage?

 

We (Seibulkan) are the Kyan lineage, and Matsubayashi seems to be acombination of the Kyan asn Itosu lineages.

 

Does your Chinto have the one-legged stances like Shotokan's Gankaku, or the "t" stances like the Kyan Chinto?

i live in seattle, washington right now.. and i have a very strong interest in practicing shorin-ryu in a combat focused manner. however the art in question does not seem to have much popularity over here. i was just wondering how all of you that practice shorin-ryu wound up founding your teachers [is there some city or state that is a meca of shorin-ryu practitioners because up until i moved to seattle i had never even heard of it before].

 

and my other question would be, what are peoples thoughts on The Okinawa Shorin Ryu Matsumura Kenpo Karate and Kobudo Association

In general the Kuda lineage people are strong fighters who tend to eschew competition. Have you visited the class in the U district?
