So not kenpo yet ….

Esto es karate.luego este payaso le puso kenpo porque para que suene algo novedoso.pero los imbéciles no saben que kenpo o kempo como quieran llamarlo significa en el idioma japonés puño.asi como escuchas todos.kempo significa en ese idioma puño .así no sean imbéciles...

Неестественно, но для новоначальных сойдёт 😮

Such crap.

Boy that First Generation of Ed Parkers Kenpo Karate was awesome

I was lucky enough to earn my black belt in Ed Parker’s kenpo karate in 1997. Fortunately, I began wrestling soon after. After competing in the Olympic trials many times, I started doing submission grappling. Unfortunately, it was clear early on for me that traditional martial arts ( like this) are mostly useless in an actual fight. It’s a bit sad. So much time energy and love goes into this art. None of it useful in combat.

Gene LeBell was chosen by Ed Parker as the best fighter.

Frank Trejo was one of the top Kenpo masters but he was also a kickboxer.

I mix Kenpo with San Soo Kung Foo.

Ed Parker chose Judo Gene LeBell to fight a boxer in a boxer vs a martial artist challenge match.

Well, you can see now more than ever why Dan Inosanto doesn't do Kenpo Karate. Of course there are some techniques he does I like.

Ed Parker and Chuck Sullivan. Nice!

These forms are poorly done, even compared to other karate practicers in those days

kind of miss the bowl white do of later years

who is mr parkers uke please x

I'll have to remember to wear a cup with spikes if i fight someone like this.

I think that this is a typical shotokan posture ! Am I right on my reasoning ? I hope so.

The sign at the beginning "Karate My Empty Hands"- I remember being on the wall at his Dojo on Santa Monica Blvd. near the 405 Freeway.

i have the original 8mm that was sold by ed parker from the late 1950's I think

a slim mister ed parker..... I am always amazed that we black belts think we are bad asses with 38 plus inch waist lines. Realize., speed is so vital as is good movements. That is flexibility not hampered by a donut-generated chubbiness. I think bill Wallace explained quite well that for a good kick a high raising of the leg/hip into kick is needed.

Ed Parker a ete entraine par de grands maitres : son style de kenpo est chinois. Avec le temps, il ajouta d'autres techniques provennants " de sa pratique avec d'autres maitres , d'autres pays. De retour d'Hawaii vers les etats unis , le colonel Parker avait fusionnes les quelques styles acquis durant sa formation a Hawaii , et d'autres endroits . On se bouscula pour suivre son enseignement ( Dan Innosanto qui amena Bruce Lee, Larry Tatum et la liste des celebrites est encore longues) . Ce fut meme Ed qui conseilla a Dan Innosanto de se mettre a l'escrima philippine Ed etait en avnce sur son temps !!!

Crap.

Love the video. Very effective when delivered aggressively fast and unforgiving with intent to totally destroy the target. Elbow to the eye socket, throat, collar bone. You get the jist 😉

Take all rules out and fight to the death. An elbow to the face broken collar bone and gouged out eye with a stomped knee cap and or groin. Only takes a few seconds Kenpo works in its basics. Nothing works in money making. Or just shoot the attacker. The interfools net has given idiots a voice. Damn shame but KZbin is cracking down on bullies.

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😥😶😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

When will you all realise no one steps through with a punch, not even a fool.

I can just imagine the look on Bruce Lee's face while watching this....

Looks like Okinawa te to me , lol , awesome footage . Very much appreciated .

Ed Parker is the L Ron Hubbard of martial arts. a true conman

this is a real gift for kenpo lovers...thank you very much!!!

Did kenpo in the 80s

Did kenpo in the 70s self defence

Parker was a nice guy, but when it came to martial arts he didn't know what the fuck he was doing.

Funny how these techniques are STRAIGHT out of Tracy's Kenpo. No alterations. Odd.

All those groin strikes.

That backknuckle strike to the thigh will defeat any opponent. Wah-sah!

You learn to fight by sparring.

Other than the salutation, there is nothing Chinese about Kenpo, not even the name.

"karate is a bunch of crap" -- Ralph Gracie

I think these critics don't know what they're talking about, don't know how to do these techniques correctly and or don't test them out before they speak.

These techniques will work if you adjust them to give them more fluidity, I think they are way more practical than rolling around on the ground in a life and death struggle against to or three attackers.

Call it kung foo, wang chung, Karate, whatever, this shit won't work, and is actually detrimental to your self defense.

Pure garbage.

that's is a very basic hung gar from and everyone think it's kenpo but it's not

Looks like Mr. Parker was formulating "father" and "Mother" relationships early into his teaching here in the states....interesting. More fuel for the "Family Related" and "Family Groupings" study.....

The form that Mr parkers friend is doing at the end is a HUNG GAR FORM for all you clowns that think its Kenpo.. Do your research Watch HAWAII MMA KUNG FU EMPERADO SPEAKS

Having several old copies of Black Belt from the mid 60's, these B/W movies were advertised by Ed Parker using his company Ed Parker Enterprises. It's great to see Ed Parker and seeing how the techniques were performed back then and knowing how they're done now with more checks. Realizing these films were essentially teasers to interest someone buying the film to pursuing the martial arts further. We see these moves through 2014-2015 eyes; but in the 60's using the power of film to market kenpo was truly ground breaking. The Shotokan crowd filmed one of their masters doing the advanced forms too. However, the Shotokan practioners today perform the moves somewhat differently as well. Style and movement changes. There's plenty of kenpoists doing these techniques in a more fluid/dynamic way that can and will break bones if applied combatively. Don't make the mistake of looking at a training film as reality. Kenpo works if it's applied properly and using your brain and modifying the movements based on the situation. Good instruction helps too!

Wow. Even though it's some seriously archaic Kenpo, it incredible to see the basis for Ed Parker's work. Thanks for sharing.

Is that Master Sullivan with Master Parker?
