parkerlineage Posted September 5, 2004 Share Posted September 5, 2004 Um...I hate to interrupt whatever is going on here...but I thought I'd add my three cents about Kenpo... Positives: 1.) Since it comes from a variety of styles from various countryies, you have an excellent mix of time-tested techniques. 2.) At least in my studio, taking Kenpo sparring styles and tweaking them to fit your own style is not only supported, but almost advised. Negatives: 1.) As stated earlier, the lack of grappling techniques. I had the opportunity to assist a guest instructor of Jujitsu teaching some of our students, and I felt rather clueless when it came to the various throws. 2.) Lack of weapons forms, at least in my studio. Any idiot can learn the nunchuku form we know, and the bo staff isn't that hard, either. The sai kata is Short Form 2, only with sai. Though I've never taken it, the only tournaments that I can go to are Tae Kwan Do tournaments because they are on Sunday (I'm a Seventh Day Adventist; I go to church on Saturday, when all the tournaments are). Though this far from makes me an expert on them, I thought I might offer my thoughts and see if any actual TKD peoples could either correct or confirm. Positives: 1.) Though I usually win or place second in the sparring competition, I must say that the TKD people certainly put up the best fights. The high kicks rock! In fact, I've adopted that into my own sparring style, which, combined with the fast hand strikes of Kenpo, makes for a formidable combo. 2.) I don't know if this is just the studios involved, but the TKD people seem to have a very high sense of honor that other dojos often lack. They are always quick to compliment, assist, and are never sore losers (or winners). Negatives: 1.) Lack of hand techniques, from what I have seen, make them easier to fight, once you get through the barrage of kicking. 2.) Your katas, no offense, need some serious work. Though, I know, katas won't save you in the real world. I think I've wasted enough board space now.
