Basic techniques
are quickly learned but only a continuous training will ensure professional effectiveness for a secure protection and control of a person.
A BIT OF HISTORY
The tonfa, originating from the Japanese farmer world, was needed for the cereals and legumes production. It was adopted as a weapon when division into Japanese classes became inevitable and that the right to carry weapons was exclusively reserved for Samurai caste. As a weapon, the tonfa (originally fromthe island of Okinawa) was born in 1677 following the King's ban on peasants and fishermen to carry weapons. They began to use the tools of their work to defend themselves.
THE UNITED STATES
It is from the 1960s/70s that the US first used the Tonfa within the Armed Forces and Police, a stick named PR21 because longer than its ancestor of Okinawa (60 cm versus 50 cm ).
