Kenshukai Tuite

Tuite is the art of Joint Manipulation and an integral part of RyuTe® Ren Mei.

Students begin by learning the six basic rules and principles of Tuite from their first lesson.

As they progress, they apply these six basic rules to a set of various hand positions. After a basic understanding has developed, they progress gradually to intermediate and advanced topics including GROUND TUITE and PINS.

This is a difficult sub-art of RyuTe® Ren Mei, and each member is trained on a case by case basis. There are many resource materials kept on our members only site, http://www.ryuteforums.com that the students may use as needed.


Students learn various techniques from Pushes and Grabs, as well as how to migrate to Tuite from Punches and Kick.

Here students practice Tuite for defense against a gun grab. Missouri is a Concealed Carry State. Instructors also teach Law Enforcement Classes.	Here an Orange Belt begins learning a technique that is new to him on a Black Belt in class.

Tuite may be performed on people of various sizes, and does NOT require strength to complete.



At this school we stress the completion of the techniques. It is important not to neglect what happens once you take an opponent to the floor. Students learn to take their partners carefully/controlled to the ground and weigh their options from that point.
