Hi-

Just wondering whether people could help me with info on kenpo
in the philadelphia area. Specifically, I'm looking for a school
that (at least to some degree) practices techs against resisting
partners, and has sparring rules that allow grappling/throws and some head shots. Modern Arnis would be a plus, also. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
andrew

And click here (http://www.homestead.com/unitedparkerskenpoupk/Pennsylvania.html) for a list of schools in PA.
Maybe there's some outskirts of Philly schools listed. If you find
one that's not there, please ... add it.

thanks kirk-

I haven't had a problem finding a list of schools in the
philly area, I was just wondering what experiences
people had had with them. Thanks for the help though.

Philly's a big area. Which part of Philly or suburbs are you looking. Lot's of good schools available.

I'll be moving to south philly, so i'm looking for anything
within the city limits. most of the suburban schools would
be to far away, unless they're very near a major transit
hub.

Hi
In the past I have had experience with Dawud Muhammad.
I would recommend him highly. his website is www.muhammadsmartialarts.com or something like that.

If I'm not mistaken there are a few people maybe on here that were collecting profile information on the many schools in the U.S. & Canada. See if you can perform a search on this forum for such subjects.:asian:

I'd suggest that you chack out:

The Martial Posture Studio
2100 Chestnut Street, 2nd Floor
Philadelphia, PA 19103
Phone (215)925-8070
info@martialposture.com

I's run by Tom Updagrove who is very good. I grew up near the Philly airport in Delaware County so I am pretty familiar with the area. Feel free to contact me at jdmills@jdmillsesq.com if you want any more specific information. There is a very strong Tracy influence in the area.
