FasterthanDeath said:Ok this will be posted in both Kenpo and Taekwondo forums. Here is the question. Kenpo is called American Karate, but when I go to dojangs and schools here in Texas, they say they teach American Karate, but its Taekwondo. So who is teaching American Karate? Kenpoists or Taekwondo practioners?
The only time I've heard that in Texas is when they've "Americanized" TKD.
They use less Korean terminology, if any, focus away from the history, modify the forms, discard traditional techniques.
So, I guess it's us Kenpo people that teach"American Karate?" :idunno:
