[bobbledorf]

Kenpo and keMpo are totally different things, people. get it right.

[JSHilderbrand]

The obvious trouble is that you habitually chamber your arm, thus neglecting checking the action of his arm. Good lick on your journey

[ThaJimster]

Yes, slapping the wrist is very important, ive taken guys down three times my size by just slapping their wrist and im 6"2 :D.

god, you suck ass. stop teaching and go back to school!

The teacher was blocking below the elbow, which would enable the attacker to collapse his elbow and continue striking. So when blocking on the outside of arm.. block above the elbow, and wen blocking the inside then you block below

Thank you for posting this video. You gave me an idea of what I should do for my 5th one step counter for my yellow belt test this Saturday.

[DIEGOKEN242]

YOu shoukd block that strike between his elbow and his shoulder, not the forearm.

If the attacker keep going forward, he could continue attacking with his elbow ans strike your face...

[heegsy]

what a fucking waste of my time!!

one technique only, how crap

[rabbitfish1]

I couldn't agree more guitarninja. This is not Okinawa Kenpo. I was taught by Seikichi Odo. This series of videos is a hodgepodge mix of various techniques. Maybe the guy on the video doesn't realise this.

[guitarninja83]

Clearly NOT Okinawan Kenpo. The true lineage of Okinawan keNpo comes from Shigeru Nakamura. Where did all the legit guys go? All their is now are 70's kung fu flick left overs. I learned Okinawan Kenpo from Chosei Motobu labeled Motobu-Ryu nowadays, I will put that up against this hogwash anyday. No offense, I just don't understand the mislabeling of practically EVERY traditional martial art by self proclaimed masters or instrutors of that particular art. It just shows how much you don't study.

@guitarninja83 I know your comment is a year old, but if you still hold this opinion I'd like to know if you consider Parker's Kenpo "traditional". Afterall "kenpo" is an evolving style - chuan'fa from China to eventually Okinowan Kenpo to the Hawaiin islands where Parker made American Kenpo - if anything Kenpo seems to be not only non-traditional but encourages change and hodge-podging.

[guitarninja83]

@robocoastie I do not consider Parkers bastardized "kenpo" traditional at all. Even he wasnt stupid enough to claim it was traditional, hence the name AMERICAN kenpo. But you contradict yourself in saying it encourages change but is nontraditional but yet is/was an evolving style, for that to be so the style would be founded on change, therefor making change the tradition. Evolution or not is not the determining factor on tradition. Even so, change should be for better not worse like this.

[robocoastie]

@guitarninja83 umm, it was simply a question to you. I so tire of internet buttheads.
