On 24 July 2021, Leonard J. Pellman Shihan was inducted into the United States Martial Arts Hall of Fame, receiving a Silver Life Award.

With the receipt of this honour, Pellman Shihan joins such notable past recipients as  Hatsumi Masaaki, Paul Vunak, Bill "Superfoot" Wallace, Kubota Takeyuki, "Judo" Gene LeBell, Demura Fumio, and Jeff Speakman, and hundreds of others representing every imaginable form of combative art.

Pellman Shihan said of his induction:  "I deeply appreciate the fact that this recognition came from an organisation composed of such a broad cross-section of the martial arts community, representing jūdō, karate, taekwondo, boxing, kung fu, kajukenbo, sambo, MMA, krav maga, and more.  It means a great deal that people from such diverse backgrounds welcomed me as their peer."

In order to improve our services to Seishin-Kan members and our affiliated dōjō and kenkyūkai, we created a completely new website exclusively for our members and launched it on 01 September 2010.  This more contemporary, cleaner, and more easily navigable website template was created by Node Thirtythree Design, whose website now unfortunately appears to be inactive.  In addition, we acquired a more robust content management system that allows us to better manage, maintain, and update content on the new site.

Other than general information about the Seishin-Kan and its affiliates, most of the new site will be password-protected content and services exclusively available to members of the Seishin-Kan and its affiliated kenkyūkai.  Some of the features we are adding to the site are discussed in the article below.
