“Sayoc Tuhon”

This drawing traces back to a pivotal day in the 1980s—when the first visual elements that would define the Sayoc System brand were conceived. What began as simple imagery would become the foundation of a living legacy.

At that time, there were no other Tuhons in the world beyond the original: the late Pamana Tuhon Christopher Sayoc, Sr. The title was not widespread, commercialized, or adopted elsewhere. It was singular—earned, embodied, and carried by one man whose work would shape generations.

SAYOC Tuhons stand in direct lineage to Filipino Martial Arts’ original Tuhon, Christopher Sayoc, Sr. The title was cultivated within SAYOC, strengthened through decades of disciplined practice, instruction, and stewardship. It represents continuity, responsibility, and uncompromised transmission.

One System.
One Tribe.

There is a culture of violence. You must understand it's tools, It's rules and it's customs.

DJ gives attribution to Sayoc Tuhon Tom Kier and quotes Sayoc G**o Dave Joyce on the Andrew Huberman podcast “ DJ Shipley, a retired Tier 1 operator Navy SEAL and now a top public educator on how to build mental and physical health and reach top-level performance in any endeavor. DJ’s life is one marked by extraordinary strivings, wins, setbacks and comebacks that together have shaped his approach to overcoming challenges of all kinds and to daily life. DJ explains a regimen of clear, practical steps and a mental stance that can allow anyone—male, female, young or old—to build extreme resilience of mind and body and to be successful in family and work” - Andrew Huberman “ I have a combatives instructor. His name’s Tom Kier from SAYOC Tactical Group. If you’ve ever watched the movie The Hunted with Benicio del Toro — the knife fighting, that’s what they do and they are the best in the world. And Tom Kier is a knowledge transfer specialist. He’s changed my life in mindset more than anybody else on the planet. And he told me a quote the other day — and it references this kinda, and we were talking about experience, and he goes — “If you understand, no explanation’s needed. If you don’t understand, no explanation is possible.” And that came from Dave Joyce, another SAYOC disciple. And it’s the truest thing I’ve ever heard. “ - DJ Shipley

From the SAYOC Archives. Circa 2010. Manong Dan Inosanto “There’s a lot of good Filipino knife systems. Pekiti Tirsia’s a good system. The Villabrille - Largusa system is very good. The Illustrisimo system is very good. A lot of good knife systems.   But the SAYOC system, it stands out to me in my opinion, this is my opinion only, probably the premiere knife system you can find. That’s not saying Pekiti Tirsia isn’t any good. Not saying Illustrisimo isn’t any good — but it’s individually, but as far as the program — I think without a doubt, I rate the SAYOC system one of the tops, if not the top, knife system in the United States.  But that’s just strictly my opinion.” Manong Dan Inosanto 2010
