We all recognize that Mr. Parker's Kenpo (both personal and commercial) evolved considerably over time. The basic effectiveness and many of the foundational concepts were always there, but with time the specific forms of expression and execution changed, in some cases considerably.
What has been the observable evolution within Kara-Ho, say from the time Mr. Parker trained under Professor Chow until now? Several have observed a more flashy, theatrical quality to the art in demonstration, but is this truly representative of the current Kara-Ho philosophy, or is it window dressing for show? How has the art grown, progressed, digressed, regressed, or otherwise changed since the early 1950's?
