the powerful strikes and kicks of Shotokan and Taekwondo, the lighting fast hand techniques of Shoshu, Wing Chun, and Jeet Kune Do, the Joint Locks and throwing techniques of Aikido, Hapkido, Hwa Rang Do, Aikijutsu and Judo, combined with Non-aggressive Control Holds, Nerve Stimulation, Knife and Gun Defense and Retention, Advanced Ground Fighting Skills, and Tactical Firearm Training, Professor Johnson has developed a system that lacks nothing except an individual?s desire to obtain an ?Elite Level? of personal self-defense ability.
