The system is a dichotomy of martial arts in that; Karrado Ryu focuses on the true (pre-convoluted) elements of combat martial arts within multiple styles and systems while at the same time rendering respect for the traditions of those disciplines and their founders. 

Karrado Ryu is derived from and founded in the fundamentals of armed and unarmed close combat. As a compilation of several different doctrines, Karrado Ryu takes confidence and pride in the fact that all of its techniques have been tried and tested self defense situations for years and years.

Ranging from the Kodokan in Japan to the theaters of the South Pacific, Southeast Asia, the Balkan States and the Middle East to the streets of Belfast, Chicago and New York City. The concepts of Karrado Ryu have stood the test of time and proven their worth time and time again.

Concepts of Karrado Ryu have been taught to former and active military personnel, federal agents, tactical police officers, under-cover narcotics units, detectives, patrolman and civilians around North America.

Pure, simple.... effective.
