Its not a bad thing if that's what you're looking for. Tournament competition and effective self defense are two completely different things.

If you’re looking for a style that will teach you how to kick butt without the other extra stuff thrown in then Kenpo is what you need. Don't get me wrong they have forms but the forms incorporate the techniques that you learn in class. You'll never see a real big front-stance or stuff like that. It is more street savvy than old school traditional. I've been TKD for 20 some odd years and have learned more self-defense stuff in Kenpo in the last 2 years then TKD. Check it out see if it's you cup of tea.

This is one of the basic techniques you would learn. Just my two cents.
