    Who is creating in shaolin kempo or in the rest of the ohana?

    This has been dealt with in other threads but the martial arts and religion have been intertwined for millennia from Pancrateon (Pantheon of God's), Arts of India (Hinduism), Gung Fu (Buddism) ....ect it's only in the modern era has there been a segregation of martial arts and...

    Who is creating in shaolin kempo or in the rest of the ohana?

    I agree that's why I left SKK among other reasons and why I created "Stewart Family Christian Kenpo" for my students by combining my knowledge of SKK and AK along with other things I have picked up along the way. Chris Sent from my R1 HD using Tapatalk

    Hense the need for students to learn the "2" sets or as I call them the "moving" sets. But a student needs to crawl before they can can walk or run, that is why we teach the "1" sets predominantly from a static horse stance position. Sent from my R1 HD using Tapatalk

    That would be more descriptive of the upward outward moving block in American Kenpo which is not the block being discussed in this video. Only the upward block is being discussed. The upward outward moving parry/block can be seen in techniques such as circles of protection. Sent from my R1...

    True, but in the context of this video it is a static set (in a horse stance) as originally taught and I was originally taught 20+ years ago that the upward block (literally above your head) could block an incoming attack....FALSE. part 2 of this video has yet to be filmed showing how I teach...

Prof. Clark Cole posted pictures of the keychains he makes by hand, I thought I would share some of my history with the keychains. in 2011 when I started taking American Kenpo lessons from Prof. Cole he presented me with a 3rd Degree keychain to celebrate my 2010 promotion within...

    When you get a degree black belt is it a new belt or do they add stripes?

    I have a plain black belt O wear often, then I have 2 belts that I add stripes too after each promotion. One for American Kenpo (red stripes) and Christian Kempo (white stripes).
