            TATAKAIDO                             MARTIAL ARTS

 

Tatakaido is a semi-traditional hybrid martial art designed to be practical and extremely effective. Stemming from ancient and modern martial arts, this system was designed to have the best of all worlds teaching students self-control and discipline, inner strength, outward power, self-defense, as well as many other skills for life. Tatakaido teaches all aspects of the martial arts realm by focusing on standing and ground fighting. This art also has weapon forms that are more practical than similar martial arts by focusing on knife techniques, stick techniques, and flexible weapons such as ropes, belts, scarves, and other like items. Tatakaido is more than a martial art, it is a way of life.
