I have seen this term used to describe the system that Mr. Parker established in roughly the 1970s. I have also seen the term "commercial" used to describe this system as well. While I understand what is meant by "commercial", I am still confused by the term "Motion Kenpo". This seems to imply a certain approach to training and teaching, but I have not been able to figure out just what that approach is.
Motion is used in all martial arts, so in a way is seems like this description could be used for any art. What is meant by this, when it is used to describe kenpo from that era? How does this approach differ from what came before, such as Tracy kenpo, or what Mr. Labounty does, or other groups that claim to not do "Motion Kenpo", such as SL4? What is the fundamental approach in training and teaching that defines "Motion Kenpo"? Thanks.
