Matsubayashi-ryu (松林流) was founded in 1947 by Nagamine Shōshin (1907–1997). He named it after two 19th-century masters, Matsumura Sōkon of Shuri and Matsumora Kōsaku of Tomari, whose names share the character 松 (matsu, “pine”). It draws on both Shuri-te and Tomari-te and has a large following outside Japan.
