Why would you alter the material. Everybody has to learn things in progression. If it is due to a time constraint I would find some techniques from each of the 8 categories, Grab, Push, Punch, Kick, Choke & Lock, Hugs & Holds, Weapons, and Multiple attacks. Goldendragon7 might be able to give you some good pointers.

Kenpo in the military how often does one confront a soldier hand to hand? Thats what guns are for. But then again it would be useful of one does get close to someone with out a serious weapon. Boy how that poor soldier in saving private ryan could of used kenpo to benefit him instead of being stabbed. When I am working on the street. my kenpo sense tells me to use my gun when i need to and physical skills when i need to. it reminds me of how people started thinking about karate lessons on plane fights after 9/11 how much could you really alter?
What would the legal implications be for someone using a martial art such as Kenpo in a situation where you had to restrain someone. Specifically like a corrections envioronment. (Ie Booking desk at the county jail etc....)Originally posted by kenpo3631
Ronin what do you do for a living?
Not only can kenpo be used in combat but it can used for physical restraint (as well as any art) while on guard duty, etc.

Just looking for other points of view on how some of you out there would alter the EP Kenpo techniques to fit the needs of the US Military. I have a gig to teach here on my post/base.
The best source of information that I could recommend would be Mr. Michael Pick at the Universal Kenpo Fedreation. He is currently the Chief Combatives Instructor for Special Forces 10th Group 101st Airborn Div. at Fort Carson. The Kenpo Combatives System he has implimented is comprised of all the elements you are looking for and is battle tested. If you would like to email me privately I will give you the necessary contact info.
