AKTS Innovations

I wanted to know what innovations has Mr.Sepulveda added to Kenpo?
I read on a previous post he has added kickboxing and grappling without changing the curriculum. Can someone elaborate.

I trained a few times at John Sepulveda's school in 97-98. They had a Kickboxing class and sparred and did bag training with more of a kickboxing style than some other Kenpo schools. They also had an advanced BJJ student come in and teach BJJ classes a couple of times a week. At this time, all of this was available in addition to the 16-technique Kenpo curriculum. They were taught in separate classes that were optional. I suspect the approach has evolved since then.
