I'm not sure but if that was Jacki McVicar in there. I have been hit by her over 7 yrs ago and I can still feel it! Thank you MAM! Best seminar still in my life!

@c2kenpo It indeed is Jacki McVicar!

Mind you, this is merely a demonstration. Have you seen these kenpo martial artists spar & hit each other in technique lines ? They are absolutely outstanding.

Just purely amazing!

demo is the word who would be dumd enough to go at a kenpoist with resistance when you are learning kenpo is a very dangerous martial art thats why only a few can understand the power in kenpo movements.

@curlyfriesx3 I have seen it and I've done it. The problem is that technique lines also use static ukes... this is not realistic at all and therefore the techniques are useless.  It is like practicing swimming techniques in your living room... Bruce Lee used to call that kind of practice "dry swimming".

@FamilyMartialArtsNZ Sure, everything about kenpo is a demo...

[nerdswers]

@FamilyMartialArtsNZ I can't find any video on Youtube showing kenpoists training against resisting opponents... there are TONS od demos against static opponents, though

@nerdswers Kenpoists do work with resisting opponents in training, but this is a demo.
