goes better with jujitsu- the kicks are done the same.

its always good to be able to do joint locks(both standing and on the ground) and some sweeps and throws(without relying too much on them). the strikes are similar too

besides, jujitsu is self defense as well as kenpo, not sport.

doesnt american kenpo have some jujitsu in it? i thought it did...

I have to agree with all so far on jujutsu. Standing up fighting and groundfighting are always a great combination.

As a side note, I have always thought that learning caporiea would be so COOL. It may not look like it would have as many practical applications, but it looks like a load of fun, and the kicks are very strong.

And I may be wrong about the applications. It may be more practical than I realize.

Eagle claw kung fu seems to be complimenting well, also.

jujitsu is not the same as bjj. jujitsu tries to stay in stand up position to be able to fight better in self defense with just a little groundfighting.

bjj focuses a bit more on what you can do on the ground, but in self defense they will all tell you to keep away from the ground.
