Shôrinji Kenpô, what is it?

The main objectives of this teaching are:

• self-confidence
  
• creating friendly links with others
• being able to protect the weakest

Shôrinji Kenpô is an efficient self-defense method combined with the practice of Zen meditation.

The techniques are classified in 3 categories:

• Goho: attack and counter-attack techniques based on combinations of parrying, punching and kicking
• Juho: soft techniques, based on clearance, staying still or projection from a seizing parts of the body or clothes
• Seiho: massage techniques using vital points of the body to regulate the nerves and blood circulation. These techniques favor muscle relaxation.
