Shorinji Kempo is an international martial art based on punching, kicking, blocking, takedowns, throws, joint locks and pins. It is a martial art for males and females. The techniques are based on speed, balance, pressure points and body movement and don’t require physical strength. Training occurs three times a week. Participants are put through gradings that eventually lead to black belt. The emphasis is not on competition but learning techniques effectively in semi real applications.
