I have not heard of it.
He studied Jukendo I did not know that was still around. I think it is rather a rare thing to learn.
He studied in Taido which is a weird interesting art. I think of it as an Aikido like Karate you can check Youtube for it.
I have no idea about Shudokan Jujutsu. I have no idea what he has a Menkyo Kaiden in either.

I am guessing that Taikudo is something he created based on his training in the above arts.

Couple articles in old Black Belt Magazine issues:

http://books.google.com/books?id=jN...ikudo+Karate&ei=UlTjSYSBN5XGM8GZ3KcN#PPA27,M1

The Hide Hirayama mentioned in the article also competed in competitions, stating his style as 'Taido'.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taido

I suspect that he created the style around the mid to late '70's.

The Cassandra Cosme mentioned in the article above is now a full-time meadow-muffin (well, it's California, mate) and you can probably contact her and perhaps ask her about Hirayama-san.

Sounds like he made up the style (which isn't necessarily bad).

Jukendo is indeed quite rare!
