It is curious to observe that most things seem to have some sort of an opposing member connected to it.

These opposites are not, however, antagonistic opposites. Even though there are opposites in all things, they also represent a harmony or union as well.

Problems arise when something happens to upset the harmony and throw this delicate balance into discord.

ShorinjiKempo is an amazing art that subdues a person through the use of intense pain, rather than the actual breaking of bones.

The secret of the effectiveness of ShorinjiKempo is to be found in ancient eastern medicine, mostly of Chinese and Indian origin.

Through several thousand years of experience, these ancient people discovered "Kyusho" or vital points in the body which can be effectively used to heal or cause pain in the human body.

It is through the correct use of these vital points that an opponent can be brought under control. Thus, even a small girl can subdue a very large man, with the correct application of pressure to the vital points.

These points are difficult to locate however, and much practice and experience is necessary in order to be able to apply the many techniques quickly and effectively. ShorinjiKempo sole purpose is for the protection of self and fellow man and not for the purpose of self aggrandizement and demonstration just to satisfy one’s ego.
