Sorry to tag yet another post of yours....but. I've been in for 19 years and am lucky enough to train with Taika because I live close. Super lucky. I love the system and had limited experience prior to jumping headfirst into this style. Through 17 years of law enforcement I've had a lot of exposure to other systems, styles, etc and still think this is best for what I do in daily life and has saved my keester numerous times on the city streets.

Greetings, Just curious where you studied Ryu Te for the short time period you did as well as where you currently live. If there is still Ryu Te in an area you live in, it won't hurt to give it a try again. If you have 4 years of experience now that you didn't have when you first started in Ryu Te, then a lot of the Kyusho and Tuite concepts will probably be a lot easier for you. Your profile says "midwest". I am in Kansas City and could probably point you to a dojo where you could test drive and see what it feels like with more experience now. At our school we have people with zero experience as well as people come in from other styles with several years of core balance, coordination, etc. The people with experience tend to pick up on the Tuite and Kyusho much quicker. At any rate, I'll be glad to help point you towards a school if you want, or answer any other questions regarding the art. Lee
