Your question as it is written sounds like you are looking for a specific instructor? If that is not the case, the paragraph below might help you out.

I am not from Atlanta, however, if you are looking for an American Kenpo school in Atlanta you might want to use the "search" function on this site to see if any past threads might reference Atlanta schools. If not, perhaps a search on the internet might yield some prospects for you.

Hope you are able to find something that will help.

I couldn't resist, so here is an entry I cu and pasted that found on a MartialTalk thread using the "search" function: If you can't find something close to you, perhaps a call to one of the many telephone numbers listed might further assist you. Good luck.

Some of the above school information is way out of date. However; for Ed Parker American Kenpo instruction, I highly recommend Keith Mathews. His school is a little N. of Atlanta.

Welcome to HOTLANTA!!!

There are only 3 places you can learn EPAK in Atlanta. Kevin Killroe (teaches privately in N Gwinette) Keith Mathews (Has a school in Canton 40min North of Atlanta) and myself (I teach a small group every week and live just off of 400N exit 6 in Dunwoody/Atlanta). I can put you into contact with any of us. Myself and Kevin trained under Lee Wedlake and for the past 2+ year we have been training under Zach Whiston (Basically the Planas line). We all have 10+ years of experience of EPAK so which ever is the best location for you I would recommend) I do know that Keith is still under Mr Wedlake and speaking of which he will be here in late Aug. Please feel free to shoot me a e-mail anytime.

Best whishes on your quest.

I just registered on this forum web page, and I couldn't figure out how to start my own "thread". I did see the, "Looking for Instructor in Atlanta" though. I am not looking for an instructor in Atlanta, but I may be moving to Boston in the next few months. Does anyone know of good Kenpo schools and instructors there?
