KTCP (Kyusho Tactical Control Program)

Kyusho Tactical Control Program (KTCP) ©

In 2008, we publicly released the book on Kyusho in use for Law Enforcement; the program is called the Kyusho Tactical Control Program (KTCP) and it is in use in many countries and agencies around the world. This was just the first of 4 modules that escalated in urgency and stress, yet it proved highly effective and proven.

We have City and State Police, Sheriffs, Federal Agents, SWAT teams, Narcotics Agents, High Security Prison Guards, Body Guards, Doormen, Emergency Personnel from Doctors, Nurses and EMT units and so many more all successfully employing the simple and effective control system.

Now “Pressure Point” systems have been trained by field agents for many years, so what is it about the KTCP that is above and beyond these older training programs?

Well there are many answers, but mostly we do not look at it as “pressure points”, rather we look at the underlying anatomical structures of the body and the most simple and effective application of leverage on them. For example we do not look at trying to push a pain point for compliance (yes most do cause pain but not our goal), we instead focus on compressing a nerve that causes reflexive neurological actions, reactions and weakening of the body. This weakening then allows the agent to more easily apply their jurisdictions approved techniques more easily.

In addition to the efficiency, it also allows the agent to freely move from target to target as presented during a situation with full body control of the perpetrator and all without physical damage. This not only controls the individual but keeps all parties safer from escalating strength or aggressive actions.  This is the book and video presented in a stepped logical manual online for instant access (text easily converts to all languages).

The DVD is in production at Budo International and will finally be released early in 2015... but you can have instant access now online and see why so many agencies and agents are learning this incredible program in more and more countries and jurisdictions each year.

But instead of talking about the benefits for ourselves (as we are obviously bias toward it, we will just include comments from several Law Enforcement agents from around the world, to tell you in their own words Edited for length these officers full endorsement can be read at:  http://www.kyusho.com/ktcp/

 The KTCP is not just for Law Enforcement, it is for all that need a non injurious control program.

Agents as well as their associated Agencies are under public scrutiny more than at any other time in History.  The use of force issue is one that is realizing fierce public attention and enforcement, which is making the field Agent’s work all that much harder as well as dangerous to their personal well being and safety.  Whereas the brave Men and Women are facing more brutal and uncaring criminals, with little regard for life, they, the ones charged with protecting us from this vile element, are being forced to treat the criminal with sensitivity and regard to protect them from even minor injury.

Agents and Agencies Are at a disadvantage that is being pressed upon them by governmental bureaucracy at an alarming pace, which in turn is embolden the criminal element even more.  The criminals know the legal limits imposed and work it against the unfortunate Agents caught in the middle.  It is in light of this dilemma that the KTCP has been developed.

As each situation or event an Agent faces has stages of possible escalation, this program has been designed for such probabilities. These stages begin not with initial stages of confrontation such as verbal commands, but where the event escalates to the need for control and restraint.  Such restraints and controls as preparation and administration of physical control, search, initiating and actual handcuffing to lifting the perpetrator from the prone position for transport.

Business Endorsements:

For those of you who know, this is a great, simple program! Easy to use and to teach, it covers such a wide variety of personnel - you don't have to focus on the LEO which can sometimes be a tough field to get into.  Hospitals, security agencies, bars, clubs, firefighters...so many needs for the efficient, effective and practical Kyusho.

Thank you Evan!

With your help I just netted an extra $5500 for my time down here.  I could have gone and made my "own" program like many others have done, but this company was looking for international certification and KI provided that, not to mention a DT program that has been researched, practiced and put into use all over the world.  Can't wait to see you out at Corn's in October. Then it will the the IKC in November!
