Gassho!
During my grading test (Hombu) to 3rd dan in 1995 I did not get the same questions as the Japanese students in the philosophy test.
I was very surprised by this and asked Hombu staff -...

I would want to know more about Cailey and his background.
I know that he has 5 dan in Shorinjikempo, he is Misuno senseis favourite kenshi and he is a very technical kenshi....
Gassho!
I really liked the embu shown in the videoclip.
My instructor in the 80:s Leif Larsson told me that there are good instructors, very good instructors and then we have Nakano sensei.:D

How to practice randori with a very tall person.
In every dojo there are always a couple of persons that are very tall. Our dojo is no exception with one person (shodan) who is almost 2 meters and...
Gassho!
Today I am in a bad mood!:mad:
This thread started with some very interesting question how students could become better in randori. Sadly it developed to a discussion about how to...

I understand what you mean but I have a totally different view of this kind of training. In my opinion this is an intellectual perception and a misleading frame of reference. Every...
Of course, Rob...... but key elements like correct distance, timing, atacking angles, taisabaki, power, speed etc. are the same in a white dogi in a dojo as, wearing jeans walking around in town.

Jan,
Personally I think this kind of exercise can be counterproductive and inhibit natural action.
Why? - Because we are not defending ourselves blindfolded!
Maybe if you are blind this drill...

Here are some tips on a little bit more unpredictable randori training. (I have written about this in another tread a couple of years ago):
First of all I want to say that for randori...
Really a great answer Steve!
In my twenty five years of Shorinjikempo their have been a lot of bridges but I have never entered a bridge that have reached to the other side.
I say we...
Steve,
Of course they do. But the free-kicks/corners/attacking runs are just set-pieces or jitsugi as our uchi uke zuki or harai uke geri not randori or play.
Personal I am allergic :D...
Gassho!
This is really a nice discussion. Steve I am a lousy chess player and thank you for explaining how you train in chess. I am a little surprised that you very seldom just play for fun to...
In my opinion the primary goal of onyo-ho or randoi is to learn how to move and react in an unpredictable environment. Kihon, Jitsugi, Embu are crucial elements of Shorinjikempo but it takes part in...

Here are my randori tips!
One person holding two small focus mitt and takes the roll as the trainer or the “feeder” and the other person is the one who trains. The whole training takes...
Excellent post Paul!
I totally agree with you!

I just want to get people on this forum a little bit upset.:D
My point is that we need to be honest with our practical knowledge about self-defence. Most of Shorinjikempo kenshi have or ever will...
Absolutely true Rob!
What I want to say is this. In Shorinjikempo we often say that our art/sport is no ring sport but true self-defence. Thus we say that we can not perform in a martial arts...
I think this is true only among the professional fighters. In amateur martial arts sport this is rare. I know some boxing and kickboxing amateur fighters and usually they come to a tournament and...
Gassho!
The mechanical fundamentals of all martial arts are all the same. You have footwork, body movement, attacks, defence, distance, timing, speed, power etc.
It does not matter if you train...
In my opinion you can not possible win against such a grappler if you are a Shorinjikempo kenshi. To fight like him you need to train like him.

I wonder what you all think about repetition?
Many years ago a very high graded instructor said to me that in Shorinjikempo we never do high repetition training like 500 hundred kicks...

I played ice hockey in Sweden for fifteen years. Now my son is 10 years old and has been playing for 3 years. His trainers follow a theoretical material from Swedish hockey federation that...

Good kagite
In my opinion the main purpose of a good kagite is to make the opponent weak. When the person is weak you can easily make kuzushi in any direction and then throw (otoshi,...

It was Howa not chinkon he did not want take part in. He clearly stated that he did not want to listen to the philosophical side of Shorinjikempo (kongo zen).
Maybe I could have...
