Genshinryu was developed and refined by Master Christian Whitney after over 30 years of training in various Martial Arts. Master Christian has dedicated his life to instructing "True" Martial Arts to society, bringing back what has been lost due to tournament competitions and extreme fighting. Genshinryu's self defense arsenal is from the Martial arts of Aikido, Chin-Na, Jujitsu, Ninjutsu, Pa-Kua Kung Fu, Penchak Silat & Wing Chun.  Genshinryu also trains one in Chi Kung exercises to cultivate Ki (Chi) energy and to strengthen the hands & forearms.
