What is Kenpo Karate?
While Kenpo traces its roots to Chinese Martial Arts, American Kenpo is the creation of the late Senior Grandmaster, Edmund Kealoha Parker. Mr. Parker brought Kenpo to the mainland from his native Hawaii in 1953, and subsequently developed it into the most comprehensive Martial Arts System in the world today. It is practical, realistic, and can readily be applied in today's environment. Mr. Parker's Kenpo Karate encompasses logical principles and concepts along with scientific disciplines not employed by other Martial Arts Systems.
CHILDREN BENEFIT FROM KENPO
For children to succeed in school, they should be motivated, disciplined, and self-confident. In learning Kenpo, we encourage our students to develop self-discipline by learning their belt requirements, and participating in a structured learning environment. This in turn carries over into their school studies and can aid in improving their grades. Self-confidence learned through Kenpo teaches our students how to interact well with fellow classmates and teachers. Because of our effective belt ranking system, students also learn to develop goal setting skills. As our students achieve higher belt ranks through their goal setting, it becomes easier for them to perpetually set lifelong goals.
LASTING RESULTS
Kenpo is a lifelong benefit. The skills you learn today will last a lifetime. Have you ever invested in an expensive health product, training equipment, or physical activity and have nothing to show for it? Well, with Kenpo, even if you only complete the beginner's course, you will always have those acquired skills as a means of self-defense or exercise. Kenpo can be a valuable investment that will last for years to come, whether or not you desire to make it a career.
