Genseiryu Karate Style

Genseiryū begins with Seiken Shukumine, an Okinawan born in the city of Nago in the year Nineteen twenty five. As a child he was pushed by his father toward karate, first under the guidance of Anko Sadoyama, who represented an older Okinawan approach often called koryū, and later under the very private master Soko Kishimoto. From Sadoyama the young student was made strong through austere conditioning. From Kishimoto he was handed tightly guarded kata and methods. Accounts in the Genseiryū community name Kishimoto as the source of versions of Naihanchi, Passai and Kushanku that Shukumine would later preserve and adapt, while also emphasizing how selective Kishimoto was with students and how secretive that training was in prewar Okinawa.
