MrJtr75. No my friend. Kyan did win a famous fight on a bridge against a tough man. The Chinto kata is named for a Chinese man who brought it to Okinawa. It has turning block strike movements where as most Okinawa kata where more linear at that time. Mal
You're wrong.. Shorinjiryu has no influence of Chibana... We don't perform Pinan, and the Naifanchi we do is not from Itosu lineage either... You're right that Seibukan's influenced from Kobayashi-style of Chozo Nakama, Shobayashi (Eizo) is influenced of Isshinryu and Kobayashiryu...
You said Chotoko Kyan mastered moral philosophy? This the same Chotoku Kyan who told his students to visit brothels? I'm not judging but describing Kyan as a moralist seems ridiculous.
