Shorin Ryu Seibukan included the introductions to the detailed basic training methods of karate; the history of Shorin Ryu; and the history of the Kyan and Shimabukuro families. This book aims to assist all of the members of Shorin Ryu Seibukan and others interested in learning more about Okinawan Shorin Ryu. The information included is based on Chotoku Kyan's teaching premise that it is necessary to first learn the forms and movements of karate; then practice the basic applications of blocking, striking, kicking, seizing and moving; and last, learn the kata to understand the true fighting methods of Okinawan karate.
