Detail: Brief History of Uechi Ryu Karate Do- In China, Uechi Kanbun (the founder of Uechi-Ryu) studied the Shuu Family which, was pangainoon or "half-hard, "half-soft" form of Chinese Kempo know as Nan Pa Toro Ken (South Group Mantis Fist). This style originated in the Shaolin temple in southern China. It combined the seven animal forms of Shaolin, which included the tiger, crane, dragon, leopard, snake, mantis and cobra. Contemporary Uechi Ryu emphasis the tiger, crane and dragon. The tiger uses short, powerful movements, to develop the bones, tendons, and muscles. Dragon movements are flowing and continous and improve spirit, alertness and concentration. The circular movements of the crane form develop control, grace and balance.
