Just wondering how many of the kenpo practioners are familiar with the web of knowledge. Lets see what everybody has to say about it.

I prefer the cycle of considerations to the web because the cycle is where your head needs to be and the web is a place to list techs. Just a thought.

I don't know anything about the Cycle of Considerations, but it is not equivalent to the Web of Knowledge.
It sounds as if the Cycle of Considerations is something to consider before/during combat.
The Web of Knowledge is how Mr. Parker organized Kenpo into a progressive, logical system which facilitated his adopting a belief in a belt ranking system.
These concepts do not appear to be remotely related. I think the Cycle of Considerations was developed by Mr. Hancock and I think he has a poster about it but I don't know much else and I am pretty sure it does not relate to the function and purpose of the Web of Knowledge.

I think it would make a good thread of its own if someone wants to start a thread to discuss it.

Ed parker invented the eight considerations not Skip. Skip just put a modern title to the same old Parker concept. You new to kenpo?

Yes, I am new. I started in 1984 which was about 4years after you did according to your profile.
If you are talking about the Eight Preparatory Considerations, then I knwo what you are referring to.
Mr. Parker invented a lot of terms to facilitate communication. So why don't you use them and quit being insulting?
I put up a link to Mr. Hancock's Cycle of Considerations poster which supports my assertion that it is Mr. Hancocks. The link is from the Kenpo2000 website and it does not mention The Eight Preparatory Considerations so how was I to know they were related?
If you are talking about the Eight Preparatory Considerations then say so. And if they are the same then why was the name changed?

I reject the term "preperatory" because it suggests you are done considering once the fight has begun. In fact I have never heard that term put toguether with considerations; so I may not know what you are even talking about.
