So it comes from Korean, Chinese and Japanese martial arts, combines Chinese words for power animals with the Japanese word for empty hand when it's based on Jujitsu/Judo, and above all, uses geocities to host it's website. Even without clicking the link I get the impression that the name is probably more impressive and heavily researched than the techniques themselves.
Maybe I'm being overly vitriolic, but it smells like these guys are taking advantage of MMA popularity to circlejerk themselves into high degree black belts while pulling in the big bucks.

Hey I study under Grandmaster Stapleton and he always told us that the original meaning of karate is "open hand" so "lung-fu-do karate" isn't actually a type of karate like most people typically think of it (as a martial art coming from Japan) but instead refers to the style onot using the body and not weapons. Hope that clears that part up!
