Sho-Lung-Dojo
"School of GeninKachido"
(Shorinjutsu Ryu Daimyo & Kwanju)
This school is one in the greater frederick area, a private
school of martial arts devoted to the grand design of the
martial ideals as in...( examples )
1. training : development into an automatic, reactional and
observational control ( so movement is fast and
effective ) almost without thought..... A system to
develop mastery in the arts as well in the spirit.....
2. Weapons: as of weapon respect and the defensive nature ,
rather then the attack first ideal in those who think this
makes them good, truthfully it is the master of
himself/or/her to become one with themselves and the art
for this is grand nature and the richness of the arts....
( the real Mastery )
3. The richness of the historical messages and masters lessons ( this learning teaches in a way simple kata will never , true kata and sparing can bring you skill, but a great teacher will say that the art has chosen you first and always, not the other way around ... )
4. When the student is ready the master will appear, this wording is true, however if one has been seeking a master,
A great teacher will know this, ( defense is good, but a ready defense is better )
5. Respect for life and for those who in both way will test you as most lessons of life can do, we are trained for self and the art....no military type school can offer this directly, because they can be turning the grunt or other into a weapon, and not a forfilled martial design, Ask the masters, they don't advocate agressive, but they also won't desire you on the street without a defense nature , hard or soft....
These and more formal lessons are taught here....
kata, positioning, and natural form is the first things, 1-4 forms
then 5-10 as we feel the student is progressing,
(for my outer instructors) then setup at least 3 sessions where they, the student or students can show me what any have learned
-must have between 10- 15- 20 technics to be ranked for a belt of that level,
- hands/knees/feet/ unless head teacher is requested to set the practice,
-( then you evolve from there ) judo/with/karate, or aikido, or shorin with judo still keeping with the startup.....
(As for ranking i require 2 months worth of training before testing, unless otherwise said or required)
and exercise ( hands /feet/ and jumping jacks ) 3 runs ( about 3-5 miles )
if you, the instructor, or teacher require.
Sparing is on assigned area, until the student has aquired at least 15 technics ( of a art, rank, or level... but test sparing is to help them see how the skill is used, can happen anytime....
As for The Ways.......
Any must have formal time with their instructor and as the Master teacher sees fit.....
basics, tosses, trips, grabs, and escapes
> classes offered, depends on student, and basic to advanced self defense, style and traditional education as in ( ways of social design) (all based on the evaluation)
as class schedules are setup by phone and time given, group training is based on the time of the teacher/instructors or test/styles required.....
Weapons training is often on a grade level and after any of the 5 basic forms ( karate, judo, ju-jutsu,aikido, shorin ) unless one is doing kungfu, then it is a mixure, If students show greater potential , then they are......
1. invited more time to train,
2. given weapon or duty exercises of a higher level,
weapons and lessons of advanced training, any or all..........
are taught in defense then attack, no other way.....
3. The rest is up to the School, Branch or Instructor Sok'e R.L.Hargett
Now the requirments: Training is 2-3 days a week, unless offered otherwise,
Student pays for Uniform and Equipment ( training is free )
to most...
Advanced lessons such as in:
Kungfu : shaolin 'bak sing choy la fut'
wood dummy training can create speed and deadly accutate skill, but is more to outwit then submit, we have those too.....
Shorin : (tomarite-masumori-aikijutsu) the basics of all karate as in
hard/soft, this teaches bravery and skill of fighting as in a mobile
warrior, and is also good for close combat
Ninjutsu : ku-san-kagi nin
this art is the art of escape, and is taught to only those that i
feel will be serious and develop their mind and body to be like the ninja "they wasn't killers hired or other, that was samurai and
chinese spies trying to be like their image.... instead they created an art based on modivation of others and their lore, what others created as a fighting system, they would better it and make it more feared......(must be a heavy brown from another school or green belt of mine to learn this....sorry)
Samurai Aiki-jutsu : The art of tenshin bushi to
jubei-dai-kokuri-tenshin-yagu ryu and yoshi/kokuri nagi-shin-kaga
budo (i have all five styles)
but basically they are used as multi and modivational defense of the samurai nature (and only offered to one who is found wise in the way of the samurai self.....)
I also do kempo (chen; various open fist with short strong strikes (wood monkey style), chu (shang wai; slipping and roping links (close combat, and multi forms including 2 weapons), and lei long (sleeping smoke dragon) chan; hands and grapples/ wu; feet and balances and jeet....(kungfu, and wingchun open lotus form)
but if you wish to train at my school, you must be offered and as you read, you pay for supplies only and you must keep it to yourself, I don't care for world publicity......my students tend to bring me students....(nothing more) do i care to accept... (however from time to time a master needs a worthy pupil or group of them, otherwise why teach a forfilling way)
Aikido,Aikijutsu,Samurai type study, Jujutsu and ninjutsu
( might require more in the way of payment )
