Absolutely. A am a long time practitioner of shorin ryu. All styles of karate claim to teach self-defense, but only shorin ryu offers the grappling art known as Tuite and the nerve point techniques called Kyusho Jitsu. They emphasize precision in strikes rather than dumb force and muscle.
FYI, "Shorin-Ryu" is NOT the only system to offer tuite (and many of those schools don't).
