Shorin Ryu

Description

Shorin-ryu (少林流) is one of the major modern Okinawan martial arts, an umbrella term for the schools descended from the Shuri-te tradition of Matsumura Sokon and Anko Itosu, combining Shaolin kung fu elements with the native Shuri-te fighting style. It diverged into many schools, including Kobayashi Shorin-ryu (Chibana Choshin), Matsubayashi-ryu (Nagamine Shoshin) and Shobayashi Shorin-ryu (Shimabuku Eizo).
