In 1969, Shihan Ishino came to North America to assist Masayuki Kukan Hisataka, the son of Shinan Masayoshi Kori Hisataka, with the dojo operations in Quebec, Canada.
Shihan Ishino made his home in Montreal, Quebec, Canada and instructs at the Genbukan dojo today.
Shihan Ishino has carefully preserved the style and principles as taught to him by Shinan Kori Hisataka and maintains a traditional Japanese dojo.
The essence of the style is best summarized in the
motto of Shorinjiryu Karatedo,
' Doku Ji Gyo Sei Ki ' ,
which translates to
' Spiritual Development of Individuality in Mind and Body
'.
