Shorinji Kempo is a modern martial art that was created in post-WW2 Japan. It has its roots in Shaolin Kung Fu and Buddhist Philosophy.
Shorinji Kempo combines 'hard' techniques such as kicks, punches and blocks with 'soft' techniques (releases and throws), meditation, philosophy and acupressure massage.
Our aim is to develop individuals' mental and physical health, as well as provide techniques for effective self-defence. We are a small, friendly club, and beginners are always welcome. For more information, please visit www.edinburghkempo.com.
