THE SHORIN-RYU
KARATE PATCH

Shorin-ryu (style name) Shorin is the Japanese equivalent of the Chinese Sil Lum Loa (“Shaolin Temple Method”). Karate originated and developed in Okinawa, and all present-day styles evolved from there, Shorin-ryu (Shuri-Te) and Goju-ryu (Naha-Te) being the two original styles to be formally systematized. Both have remained pure in form to this day, although Shorin-ryu is considered to have had the most influence on the development of contemporary karate styles.
