'''Kenseido''' is a fairly recent style of [[Karate]]. It focuses on blending "yono" (direct attacks) with "ino" (moves that utilize the opponent's energy). 

The United States Kenseido headquarters is located in [[San Antonio, Texas]].

Kenseido's roots and origins are ancient, stemming from the traditions and techniques brought to Japan over a thousand year period by the Shaolin (Shorinji in Japanese), the martial skills, customs, and culture of contemporary and Samurai era Japan (edo-jidai)and the innovations of Akizuki Masayuki that earned Kenseido official recognition in Japan as an authentic Sogo (comprehensive) Budo in 1973.

Bushoudo, a recent derivative style of Kenseido was establish in Japan by Makino Toshiaki and Tetsuo Hasegawa. The dojos of Bushoudo exist inside the Tokyo Budokan, in Matsudo, Yatsu, Edogawa and elsewhere on the Kanto plain near Tokyo. the system follows the spirit and teaching of the Sendai Dosyu, Akizuki Masayuki, the original founder of Kenseido. The name "Bushoudo" means the authentic path of Budo (bushido) and attempts to convey a return to the original precepts of Japanese Budo, often lost in contemporary martail arts. The shihan or master level instructors of bushoudo; Hasegawa, Makino, Okada, Watanabe, Miwa, Nakamura, Kasagawa, Akeyama, Tsutsumi, Makino the younger, all exemplify traditions, customs and ettiquette that has become increasingly rare in Japanese society today. This author has witnessed their strength of character and genourosity of spirit, something you usually just read about in creeds and legends. Bushoudo has the potential to become a force on the Japanese scene, as a system that has core values equal to Kendo in non-sword system. Technically, there is little that separates Bushoudo from Kenseido or Shorinji Kempo. They all share a curriculum of Goho and Juho, positive and passive techniques that is reminiscent of Daito-ryu Aiki Jujitsu. Plus add the complete Punching and kicking side of the art that has more in common with Shaolin Kung Fu than it does Okinawan derived karate, except the long-time influence of Kyokushinkai (mostly in central Honshu) on the practical applications and sparring methods. This should update the Shorinji Kempo, Kenseido lineage story.
