This system or style dates back to the 1400S even though it did not became know until a
century later, when its teachings became public. The Port of Tumai was a mandatory stop
point for many boats, were the contrabands and fighting abounded. From there Kempo was
born, for its origin is a net combative martial art.
Our style of karate maintains a balance of techniques between legs and hands; 50% of kicks
and a 50% of punches. It is a very traditional style with low and accustomed stances, and
powerful and effective blows by far use of the waist.
The essence of our style allows us to reach a perfect balance between a physical, mental and
spiritual development. The discipline, the respect and the education are the fundamental base
of ZEN SHO SHORINJI KENPO NO TUMAI-TI.
