Beginners - Why Shorinji Kempo?

Shorinji Kempo is a unique martial art. It is all about having a healthy body, a healthy mind and about being able to defend yourself. You learn to punch and kick, block, lock and throw, but at the same time you learn discipline, respect for those both older and younger than yourself, the importance of staying calm under pressure and many more skills that will be useful in and out of the dojo.

Shorinji Kempo is regulated by the World Shorinji Kempo Organization in Japan, and everyone in the world learns the same techniques, wherever they are and whatever language they speak.
