	Senshido - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Senshido ("Way of 1000 Masters") is an eclectic form of reality-based self defense and mixed martial art, based in Montreal, Quebec, Canada - created in 1994 by Richard Dimitri.
		Senshido is a martial art that is purely geared towards self defence.
		As explained by founder Richard Dimitri: "Senshido is not a style and doesn’t teach memorization of techniques.

	Richard Dimitri
		So Senshido (a Japanese name) translated well and The way of 1000 masters seemed befitting since at the time (1993) my system was eclectic and originated from various sources.
		My student replied Senshido and the 20 year old ignorantly replied "That place sucks, all you do is learn eye gouges and psychological bullshit there, you should train here in BJJ instead." When they sparred, my student tapped him out in under 3 minutes with a keylock.
		Senshido delves deeper into the physical and athletic components of the 5 ranges (Kicking, Boxing, Close Quarter Combat, Grappling and Ground Fighting) and is bio-mechanically more enhanced as it is offered in longer periods of time (months or years) for people who wish to continuously train and improve as fighters on a holistic level.

		I got thrown off by the name "Senshido", figured it must be another mcdojo until guys like Sammy Franco, Geoff Thompson, Marc Macyoung and several others spoke highly of Rich I finally decided to take a look.
		I have two of Senshido's tapes for sale on ebay, 2 going for about the price of 1.
		I've only talked to Rich once, and been on his forum and I'd have to say he is humble and has good character.

	The Martialist: The Magazine For Those Who Fight Unfairly
		In Total Defense of the Self is a relatively thorough write-up of the philosophy behind Senshido.
		He views fighting as a continuum, a living body of ideas and practices that must be approached in whole to be understood.
		Familiar Senshido principles like the "closest weapon, closest target" guideline appear (as I imagine they do in most of Rich's videos) and many permutations of groundfighting scenarios (or situations leading to groundfighting scenarios) are outlined.

		Even though reports first began to surface three weeks ago, MUC police have yet to take action against a man who has been stalking and groping women in the downtown area between the Atwater and Guy-Concordia metro stations.
		So Richard Dimitri, owner of Senshido martial arts centre located in the region, has decided to do something himself.
		In conjunction with the Mirror, Senshido will offer a free four-hour workshop on self-defense for women this Sunday, November 16, at Senshido, 680 Ste-Catherine West, beginning at 2 p.m.

		The meeting decided that in order to distribute Senshido products in Malaysia, the plaintiff must be incorporated and the fifth defendant and his wife, the fourth defendant, be appointed as directors apart from Foo Chun Kit.
		The plaintiff was informed by the third defendant, the Senshido head office and manufacturer in Taiwan that, they knew about the first and second defendant buying Senshido products from the seventh defendant and the purchase was done with the third defendant's consent.
		Their intention to interfere is shown by their overt acts of buying and then selling Senshido products without the plaintiffs knowledge, the advertising of sale of Senshido products in Malaysia bought otherwise than from the plaintiff and opposing the passing off suit.

	Urban Combatives
		This seminar was part of Senshido’s UK tour and saw many proficient instructors and trainees in attendance.
		This method of attack is extremely invasive in nature as well as psychologically disrupting, creating primal fear in the recipient by switching the potential aggressor from predator into prey.
		This concept also fits in with Senshido’s 5 principles of physical retaliation these are as follows and in no particular order; Economy of motion, Non-telegraphic movement, Opportunity striking, Tactile sensitivity and Primary target acquisition.

	Senshido Forum
		September 30 2002, 11:13 AM Senshido started out as a hybrid system predominated by tools from the Wing Chun system, BJJ and Muay Thai...
		Bruce Lee talked about the individual always being more important than any style but for me, when I come upon a system I respect and see the work done by the men who have come before me I feel humbled by their achievement and question myself being more "important" than their style or system.
		October 1 2002, 7:24 PM Somehow I managed to miss the what is Senshido description on the Senshido defined page.

		Senshido realistically addresses the physical as well as the much often-neglected psychological and emotional components of violent confrontations.
		Principles are based on natural patterns of psychological & physical defenses, as well as human behavior in relation to extreme violence, aggression, desperation, drugs and alcohol.
		Krav Maga continues to be defined by actual modern combat and self-defense experiences, but has also been designed to be implemented by civilians.

	Senshido California seminar - Deluxe Martial Arts Forums
		Senshido is refined, in that it seems to have cut out most of the junk.
		They not only give you a great taste of what Senshido is all about, they also teach you one of the best, yet easiest to learn, fighting concepts that there has ever been.
		It's success' positive points is that, well, it probably is the best concept I've learned to date, but the same success makes people believe all Senshido is, is the Shredder, and it couldn't be further from the truth, but it's certainly not a bad place to start.

		The Shredder is a physical retaliation concept that is comprised of several short, traumatic offences such as eye gouging, ear ripping, palm striking, raking, biting, elbowing, spitting, throat crushing and neck and head cranks and manipulations.
		Senshido people still train boxing/grappling.kick boxing etc. The are important attributes to develop.

		Ah yes, teaching women how to defend themselves against rapist, domestic violence, and building up their confidence in themselves is a damn good reason not to purchase their products anymore.
		Someone on Senshido asked what other's thought about Sammy's response...they replied with their opinions and feelings.
		The senshido responses are to be expected, especially since they have a special interest in womens SD.

		Richard Dimitri can't even sit through an interview without popping out of his seat for an impromptu demonstration of the suckerpunch or what to do when a knife is held at your throat.
		Fast-forward through a couple of rough decades and fl-belts and Dimitri had developed Senshido, a form of self-protection that mixes martial arts, hand-to-hand combat, kick-boxing and more.
		Stranzl and Dimitri have contacted several women's shelters and rape-crisis centres in Montreal in attempt to push the gospel of Senshido, but cite "red tape" as their biggest hurdle so far.

		If a few more people had seen a web page like this or CFA or senshido before, the state of the self defense arts would not be in the sad state it is now.
		Like I said before, If martial arts are ignoring reality, senshido put the M back in martial arts.
		If in your search through the Senshido and CFA websites you have not come across any of the philosophical ideas behind these systems, maybe you should take the time to purchase just one of the books (In Total Defense of the Self - Rich Dimitri, or one of Sammy's).

		But if you dismiss it without giving it a fair crack of the whip you are being unfair to Senshido and, more importantly, unfair to yourself.
		Im 17 and have no martial arts training at all, it was my first time even simulating a fight and i picked it up, in order to be able to use it better i think i will need to practice with some friends first though but it doesnt take an expert to pick it up.
		Senshido isnt just about fighting, its about surviving, he encorporates pre and post fight stuff including, avoidennes, awareness, de escalation, functional strength training, rape prevention and loads more.

	Street Fighting Analysis Of The Shredder - Sherdog Mixed Martial Arts Forums
		These principles dictated that when striking, it was logical to make sure that the time frame between strikes was as short as possible in order to offer your opponent less of a chance to reflexively and defensively react to the attack.
		Because the startle to flinch response is a reliable physiological process that acts as an effective protective mechanism (we, Senshido, utilize it in terms of a launching pad off an ambush or surprise attack), I deemed it necessary to come up with a retaliatory concept that bypassed this phenomenon.
		As I analyzed this process and realized its validity as a defense mechanism which is not only quicker and much more reliable than any memorized technique but also non perishable and impossible to bypass when it overrides cognitive processing, I began to design a concept of attack that bypassed this ‘involuntary’ triggered response.

		Senshido game did receive some sites, but fast checking didn’t reveal other games named as Senshido.
		Senshido (which I liked) got poor or average results from the people I asked.
		Even though I liked the name, others didn’t like it that much and as there were small problems: word-of-mouth, difficult to remember and the fact that senshido.com was taken all resulted in declining this name.

		While C:redo has developed in a different direction, C:redo owes a huge debt to Senshido, both because it was Senshido that developed the Shredder, and because of how much they have raised awareness about the importance of scenario replication.
		Further, I would say that the Senshido instructional videos and DVD's are the best on the market.
		If you are not fortunate enough to live close enough to train with someone who does scenario based training, then I would recommend you try some of the Senshido materials.

		It took me a while to get over just that feeling...but the important part of learning off of a tape (and I say this with only Senshido's concepts in mind) is that you find someone to train the concepts with.
		Joshua makes a good point however, no training partners, tape learning is going to be conceptual.
