  • So why would anyone want to take a friendly hand shake and turn it into a judo flip? Not going to have many friends if you do this to them.

  • @KenpoKarate4U : This was a common technique taught in "Modern techniques" taught in Jujutsu from it's emmigration to Europe and the United States. When Jujutsu practitioners saw that westerners would "Offer their hand" & saw the opportunity to do a "friendly Throw" (Boy is that phrase an oxymoron!). They've even shown an example of this on an episode of "The Flintstones" cartoon! {anybody remember the infamous "Haki Taki HA!" Kiai done by the "Judo teacher"?in the episode}

  • PS: You'll see that I mention "right" for crossed twigs at 7:45 in the clip!

  • Hi folks!

    Just wanted to make a quick mention to everyone that crossed twigs is traditionally done with the right hand.During the filming,I did the left side due to the angle at the moment. Due to the dual limb attack the ability to do either side is part of the symetrical/ambidextrious nature od double hand attacks. We'll address it in a future clip!

    BTW,you might be mentioned in that clip!

    BEGOOD,

    KENPOJOE

  • This is great! Are there other corellations between two handed sword techniques and jujitsu throws/grapples?

  • @KENPOJOE1 Man, your really a great sensei! excellent teacher. thanks

  • Kenpo is awesome! Maybe there are some techniques that one my never need to use! But SO WHAT! It still broadens one's knowledge and provides him or her with more tricks for the bag! And, if it does happen, then guess what? You'll be glad you studied it. I currently hold a brown belt in Shotokan Karate and recently started studying Kenpo. I've been in it for about 1 month now and will be going up for yellow belt in about 2 weeks. I love it! It's the BEST style I've ever seen!

    Great job here!

  • @KENPOJOE1 I've seen the reversal several times it's one of my favorite techniques. I'm Sadistic and like hearing the screams! Just kidding, I think your video's are very cool and fun to watch. May I recommend getting a hot looking assistant and put her in a geisha out fit........Also was that you I saw in the Video with David German squealing doing the cane demo?

  • Hey KenpoJoe! Hope things are going well for you!

  • The first time I learned crossing twig as a rear defense I thought my sensei was full of BS, I studied Kenpo for 6 years and when I moved away from home and started university I got a job as a bouncer, within 2 weeks I had used that technique about 3 times.

    Some people laugh when they see techniques like this, but from personal experience these are the types of self defense techniques that can easily get you out of a pinch.

    Nice work Kenpo Joe, keep the videos coming.

  • Very interesting thanks for the info.

  • Very interesting. Perhaps sir it would be good to mention to Kenpo novices that whilst these techniques may originally have been inspired by very specific attacks, the broader picture is that they remain in the system because these moves are equally applicable to countering more general assaults. We're not actually worried about being attacked by Jiu Jitsu practitioners lol.
