Because it's not kenpo hence the name of this threadEd Parker kenpo is not supposed to be non violent. The system is very violent, what is peaceful about kicking and punching and elbowing someone until they fall to the floor bleeding?
Well to be honest is any kenpo instructor going to fail ed Parkers son in all honesty. I'm not saying he's not good though because I've never seen him train but I've seen posts of his on facebook and from what I see he doesn't really like the kenpo lineage. I think he feels there's to many people taking advantage of his fathers work. I reckon that's why he did his Paxtial arts to try and do his own thing away from kenpoHe got his 1st black from a very respected teacher and then did not pursue rank further. He took on an "Ambassador" title as he wasn't trying to be a successor. I took a seminar from him and I think this idea was in its earliest stages, but he was a decent martial artist and he presented the material well.
There are plenty of techniques where you don't actually have to hurt the person plenty of wrist lock and choke holds and some where yes you have to hit them but not in an extreme way of causing severe damage just enough to distract them and subdue them. Don't take this the wrong way but from what I've read you seem to have a big ego where you seem to need to prove yourself. If someone tries to hurt you you hurt them back where you could simply have subdued them. Who cares if girls are watching or if you can't show off your muscles I think you should read up on philosophies of martial arts and not just think about the physical sideNo. If it does then it has not been shown to me.
He like his lineage just fine. I think you mean the bickering and politics.Well to be honest is any kenpo instructor going to fail ed Parkers son in all honesty.

You are supposed to be getting away, just like they teach at the end of every tech.If the techniques in this system doesn't cause pain, then what stops the attacker from getting back up to attack again?

If you are working in a protective service field you will sometimes be tasked to control someone while doing as little physical damage as possible. Likewise, it may raise it's head in a social context where an overkill approach just won't be any good or legally defensible. (make you feel awful, afterwards, too) You really can't undo a broken jaw.
Ironbear, my guess is you'll be exposed to these type of techniques at some point. You'll probably be good at them, too.

I will never become offended by constructive criticism. I have a natural tendency to try to impress people and its been there since I first started martial arts as a nerdy teenager.
I don't know why exactly but that's just something I do, I like impress people because if I do then that tells me I'm good at what I am doing.
I would like to see this system outside of a slow motion demo with over-extended attacks.You are supposed to be getting away, just like they teach at the end of every tech.

Yeah you are saying that to a person who is known to be serious all the time, and my wife nicked named me grumpy. I don't think there's enough funny in me to make something hilarious. But I can make people Chuckle, and GrinCommon sense on the part of both parties.
By the way if you can make your fight hilarious. Less likely to have other people jump in.
Street fighting trick. Be funny.

A think an eye poke would be perfect to use on a school bully tbh just a quick eye flick to distract them cause them a bit of pain to stop the attack giving you opportunity to run and find a teacher or get into a crowded area where the bully wouldn't try anythingI just learned of this system. Looks like Systema to me. I like the idea of someone developing a good nonviolent system for those who want it or need it--e.g., those who work with the mentally ill. It's true that teaching a school kid to poke out eyes for self-defense against bullies isn't very useful. I'm all for someone developing the optimal thoroughly pacifist martial art and having it available. I am, uh, unconvinced that this is it. Aikido has some history and experience behind it. I will probably continue recommending that as a base for those who want this sort of thing, and boxing-and-BJJ for self-defense against school bullies.
