I've read amazing things about the Gracie family in Black Belt magazine!

Chicks that can grapple are sexy!

@borobei Hello. In this video we should how the school branching out into grappling and extend its horizons other possibilities. I don't believe that grappling was ever originally in kenpo

[borobei]

@isurus986 so direct students and instructors under ed parker knew some grappling?was grappling in kenpo lost when it started spreading or getting commercial?

[isurus986]

It is funny everyone mentions Kenpo is a bit of everything. Read my previous posts. In fact (again I teach Chinese Kenpo and BJJ) Kenpo in China (Quan Fa) was one of the first elected martial arts in history. Don't believe me...google it. Quan Fa means martial arts and was a blanket term for MA. In Chinese Kenpo, the 5 animals are still taught today. Even modern stuff like gun control as the art evolved over time with different types of oponents.

[isurus986]

In essence to last post...I hate forms though. Pretty, and have techniques, and discipline, etc, but freestyle is funner. I tell my students I hate forms as well. Rather do knife fighting, chin na, grappling, freestyle, eye of hurrican (8 attackers), gun control, and techniques than "dance" I guess. Everyone is different. The Kempo jiujitsu was derived after Okinawa in the lineage. I have the lineage going by several thousand years. Even to India with tribes that used it before China.

About the dog style kung fu I mentioned earlier. It is mostly sweeps, chokes, minor locks, sprawling, etc. BJJ has these and more. As footbinding (was used by females more) stopped, dog style kung fu kind of died. BJJ is better in this relation. Some American Kenpo artist may be mad at me for calling it watered down earlier, but I can show you several missing pieces in your "modified" techniques from our Chinese Kenpo...8 years+ black belt level in Chinese Kenpo or 6 in American; lots missing

[isurus986]

I teach Chinese Kenpo (Quan Fa). The locks came from Chin Na in our essence...not JapaneseJJ. This video is sloppy BJJ...another one of my favs arts. I trained American Kenpo (watered down and missing lots of stuff they took out from ours). Grappling in Shaolin was under Dog style Kung Fu (not as refined and effective as BJJ, good though but hasnt stood test of time). Gracie style is awesome. Parker was under Chinese and left; this why he was good and some of his direct students (Jeff, etc.)

Kenpo imbeciles. Work all your life at this joke system and have nothing to show for it. If you want to grapple, try BJJ or wrestling.

@lordhumongos Ed Parker's Kenpo karate is indeed highly applicable to weapons and that wasn't accidental.We have weapons forms;there are videos of Ed Parker and his students doing knife forms.His version of Kenpo merges beautifully with Kali and that's how I started learning my weapons skills.It also merges gorgeously with iaido,which I also study.

[ATACXGYM]

@houseofKenpoKarate That's actually not true.I believe a more accurate statement is:"GROUND GRAPPLING isn't stressed and trained traditionally in Ed Parker's Kenpo.However,the Tracy's say his teacherProfessor Chow had ground grappling akin to judo and jujutsu,Ed Parker just removed it. Kenpo has ground STRIKING. Ed Parker's old skool Kenpo also didn't emphasize vertical grappling,although it had plenty of it.Kenpo has the arsenal when trained correctly to be a brutal Karate-Jujutsu hybrid."

@charleyfan I hold a 5th dan in kenpo,a black in several arts including judo and in hapkido a blue in bjj .There's STANDUP grappling in American Kenpo Karate,focusing on strikes traps manipulations etc. more than locks and subholds.But Kenpo literally has Sleeper Holds,wristlocks,sweeps throws tackles etc,too.In Ed Parker's Kenpo, ground grappling training was essentially nonexistent until the rise of MMA.Watch my Channel for ground grappling AND ground fighting.They're not the same.
