THE BIRTH OF CHI-TU-DO

Combat Chi-Tu-Do is a refined synthesis of tactical combat stemming three generations of martial arts.

 

Chi-Tu-Do (the integrated self-defense martial arts of Shiho Korano JiuJitsu, Ba Men Chuan Fa, Moore's Kung-Fu, TaeKwonDo Chung Do Kwan, Estalilla Kabaroan Escrima) began its development in the early '70s by Grandmaster Brian Cunnings.

 

Combat Chi-Tu-Do continues the MMA lineage as developed by his son, Master Bonner Cunnings in Clovis California and Master Dennis Forleo in Billings Montana. Combat MMA curriculum is being highlighted by the fighting black belt grandsons of the art, Bodee Cunnings and Brock Cunnings.
