Martial Arts Topics / Kenpo Karate?
« on: February 17, 2006, 07:55:38 AM »
I studied American Kenpo for about 15 years I guess. Kenpo can be a great art but you need to find a good teacher who practices it in a functional manner - with progressive resistance, etc. Kenpo can be useful or useless depending on how its taught and how you train it.
You can do all the Kenpo self-defense techniques from Five Swords to Twirling Mace but it won't equate to being able to protect yourself if you never work it against someone trying to resist you.
Then again, the above statement goes for any martial art system and coach.
Cheers,
