As for expanding human relations, there's plenty when your pulling a guy's nads over his head during a technique! :D

My most favoritist part of Kenpo is teaching my students. That also means I take care of my yellow belts when nasty old 4th degrees come after my children.
 
Please, keep the conversation on topic..

The picture of the "Applicator" was deleted due to a concensus by the Mod/Admin team that the picture had one of our filtered words on the bottom of it.

Further, it was recommended that the past page of comment be moved to the locker room. This was what specifically delineated the EPAK forum from the other two Kenpo fora, the strict moderation regarding topic. Yes it is fun and funny, but just not for here. Once again this was the Team's recommendation.

Yep, by the way, the lunch bill should be mailed to you shortly.
Now, let's get back on topic.
 
What I have found is that after studying EPAK and then moving on to other styles of Kenpo (Kajukenbo & Okinawan) is that they DO NOT have set self-defense techniques. They work the crap out of katas and then analyze the buki (that maybe misspelled). Buki is the interpretation of the move. They also do one point sparring. This is where I would throw a punch and you would do a technique. However, these are not set techniques and I see a serious lack of ability to defend oneĀ’s self in a real situation (not sparring).

:fart:
 
There is no way i could place a vote on one of those particular componants of Kenpo because as a complete packge the Kenpo world is a world of its own. A brotherhood goes with the uniform as does tradition with the crest and the belt that you wear and the social, historical and traditional aspects, sets, forms, self defence techniques, conditioning etc make it to me the most appealing art on offer but thats just me.

:D

...and which technique would that happen to be, oh Rusty One... :idunno:
 
I voted self-defense techniques...I really enjoy learning the physiological effects on the body when learning the sequence of the moves and how the body is going to react in X way when hit Y place as the progression continues. also, the correlation of geometric principles on body motion and strikes is pretty nifty, too. :)

but now that I've thought about it...the social portion of training is important...I'd have to agree...all the people I hang out with now are the ones that go to the studio...and kinda having lost track with everyone from highschool certainly has something to do with it.
