I've only watched Kempo online & it just looks like a flurry of fast (circular?) Movements which seems overly artistic .
Like striking out in a flurry hopefully hitting something. I think Ed Parker definitely Was an interesting man but I'm more interested in direct, clean technique with no fancy BS.
It may well be that my Analysis is way off ...
It's just if I want to smash a guy in the face I don't need all the hand waving or face pulling 🙂

And a long way from Black Belt, Me Phil Schoen

I was lucky enough to find a website (on the advice of Brother John, a thread he posted on Kenpo Talk) that had all this information listed. I found it very interesting to see my place in the huge Kenpo family.

I also want to again make it clear that I am in no way taking any credit for all the research that went into this list of Lineages I just though it might be useful to others.
I wonder were I could get updated list?

It is very rare to see anyone posting that Kenpo/Kempo lineage.
