Koryu Tode Kempo is a style practiced by Phil Tinnuche. The parent organization is the British Kempo Jujitsu Federation. I watched a bunch of videos and enjoyed the techniques, but I don’t recognize them. Does anyone know much about them? I liked the videos – they seemed to offer a lot of food for thought for techniques. Here’s one:

the last one he did was SICK!!!!
man!
Never thought about going to the eyes the way he did!
Pieces of the techniques look familiar. Especially the first one. It has parts of a crane kempo and a knife defense I know.
The endings (sitting on the body) are definitely kempo IMHO.
The system Koryu-Tode-Kempo, is taught by myself Phil Tinnuche in Wales in the UK. The system is Okinawan, based on Chinese influences, our Ryukan origins are based on the teachings of To Daiki (Tang Daiji) which incorporates the animals (Dragon, Tiger, Leopard, Crane).
phil, does it incorporate snake techniques as well?
Seems like it , in all your youtube videos!
I have to say that I study Ryute/Ryukyu Kempo of Taika Seiyu Oyata (for the past 27 yrs) and some of the techniques seem familiar. just the flow and execution is very jerky even at the faster speed. Tode was actually one of the earlier names for the native Ryukyu Arts (Uchinudi I believe is another) …. Who in Okinawa tought this style.
