Where has all the Kenpo gone?

[parkerlineage]

As I wander in my lonely desolation, the question comes to me...why does nobody from EPAK (Ed Parker's American Kenpo) post on here? Are you out there? And what rank, if you are?

 

Am I truly alone?

Hm. There's an Ed Parker Kenpo dojo here that seems to be pretty popular, and one where my mom lives as well. I thought it was a pretty popular style.

I would have been interested in trying kempo but the only kenpo dojo in my area is the archetype of the McDojo. Used car salesman pitch and one year unbreakable contract required included.

Walking into a dojo should never feel like you are being pitched like you are buying a car. Keep looking!

*If you guys look under the Karate section, we have started many Kenpo/Kempo threads that you may want to contribute to. Delta1 and I wanted to get a kenpo section at one time and it was contigent on posting in the Karate section under the subtitle of Kenpo. Check out some of these threads.

If you guys keep posting in this format, we can revitalize the kem/npo efforts at KF. Then we can look at world domination.

We've got some rank in here, now!

Nice to see ya, Red J.

I certainly will check out those threads.

Keep coming, my Kenpo Bro's (and Sis's (?) )

Already way ahead of you on that one...hehe

I posted on that thread. We shall rise again, like a phoenix from the ashes, or a (something imposing) from (whatever the imposing thing rises from)!

Hey, I practice White Tiger Kempo...

Lineage:

Mitose-Chow-Emperado-Parker-Cerio-Fescina

When you think about it, a lot of modern systems of Kenpo/Kempo came through Ed Parker (I believe, correct me at once if this a false assumption), so in essence, most Kempo practicioners practice Ed Parker's American Kenpo. We have a LARGE family tree, there are so many branches of Kempo...
