Developed the Hoshin Healing System
"Hoshinjutsu: The Art of Esoteric Budo"
Rob Williams, the Soke (Grandmaster) of Hoshinjutsu Budo Ryu, is a multifaceted martial artist whose life revolves around physical excellence, healing arts, and personal development.
Rob Williams began his journey almost 40 years ago, exploring a variety of disciplines that would shape his comprehensive approach to combat and self-improvement. His extensive background includes:
Beyond physical techniques, Williams was personally trained and certified by Dr. Morris to teach and award rank in Hoshin Tao Chi Kung—the internal energy system at the heart of Hoshin. Recognizing Williams's deep understanding of Hoshin's principles, Dr. Morris stated unequivocally: "I consider him [Rob Williams] my successor."
Williams organized and structured the Hoshin system, creating clear outlines for each belt level. This approach made Hoshin more accessible to students unfamiliar with traditional methods. Emphasizing practicality, he integrates self-defense and personal growth to help students deepen their understanding of Hoshin's core strategies.
Williams's appreciation for mind-body connectivity led him to create the Hoshin Healing and Massage System, blending conventional techniques with holistic energy work to promote natural healing.
Known for his supportive and explorative teaching style, Williams helps students grasp foundational principles while encouraging personal growth. His dedication is evident in the strong community of practitioners who've built their skills under his mentorship.
Rob Williams's path epitomizes dedication and innovation. By honoring Dr. Morris's legacy and integrating his own experiences, Williams showcases the transformative power of Hoshinjutsu for everyone—whether they seek self-defense, healing, or a deeper understanding of the mind and body.
Quote from Soke Rob Williams
"Many years ago Glenn asked me to clean up the Hoshin system so that the principles were organized and easier to deliver to students. Even though Glenn didn't live to see the result of that work, I proudly continue my assignment, which was to advance our system. ..."
