"Hóng Cūn [Red Village] Liūchū Qūanfa [Ryukyu Kenpo] (紅鄉 琉球 拳法) comes from one of the oldest, and most effective, military combat systems ever developed. The system was designed for adults and mature teens. The training is difficult, dangerous, and demanding. It takes perseverance, high motivation, a good mind, and, an unwillingness to compromise standards. The system teaches violence control and prevention recognizing that "self-defense" is a misnomer utilized to circumvent the ugly truth that it takes violence to stop or repel violence. Improvised as well as standard weapons are included in the training, where possible. It was meant to supplement a soldier's battlefield repertoire of techniques and ideas to keep him alive and functioning in that hostile environment. This system is not for exercise or sport. It has been opened up (2023) for civilians to learn.
