Clips de Kenpo 5.0

[@williambreen4290]

Ed Parker would be proud of his student Jeff Speakman for carrying on the art of Kenpo as well as enhancing it with ground fighting! Kenpo 5.0 has it all! Stand up street fighting infused with grappling and weapons. I would love to train in Kenpo 5.0 one day! This video was excellent!

[@augustvelasquez5082]

💎💎💎 Thank you Sensei Speakman, From a Kyokushin Student❗

[@sf7708]

Okay, my two cents, you can compare martial arts, no what style, to a military operations order. Neither one will go as planned after the first shot is fired! Therefore you have to have as many contingency plans/fighting skills in advance as possible in order to adapt to the situation on the fly. Kenpo is one martial art that allows that to happen.

[@Wild_Beast_man]

Cool! Master Speakman - 👍

[@michaelholst4457]

Soundtrack is great !!!

[@vitukoleon]

Gran maestro es este speakman, tengo la peli de arma perfecta y es grandisimo, lastima que no alcanzase el estrellato de van damme y demas peña. Su estilo de lucha me recuerda al silat que hace iko wais, por la velocidad de las manos, aunque este ultimo es mas rapido. Un saludo

Jeff Speakman makes Kenpo alive

[@pausetape8824]

This looks good but I have one question and being that I study Tracy's Kenpo Karate and live in a urban community how does work in a multiple Attack situation. Because. Where I live it is very rear to see a one on one situation????

[@soldierofgod792]

I wish I could go talk to him I'm a speakman but never met him

[@Dragonflyjones67]

I personally would like to study American Kenpo from Jeff Speakman.

[@notyou8716]

Take lessons from someone who has actual combat experience, not an actor. All an actor is gonna teach you is how to act like you know how to fight. This crap is not how actual street combat plays out in real time.

[@kennethbautista3456]

Long form ?

[@vinvass2674]

Mr Speakman has always been an innovator on kenpo. He was the first to take it to the movies. Now retired, he, as a high grade black belt, is taking it to a new level with his adaptations and interpretations. But when he starts adding grappling I switch off. We all know the importance of grappling techniques and people are cross training again by going to different classes and learning from different teachers. It is great that Mr Speakman is open in his personal training to take up what looks to be BJJ, and is most likely to be so, plus some old style standing JJ, maybe aiki jujutsu as that is what the old karate masters in Japan studied. However his Kenpo classes should be just Kenpo, taking what he knows and developing it. He is not at a high enough level in his grappling systems to be teaching. If you want to learn Kempo Jujutsu, Judo, aikijujutsu, BJJ or go to the Gracie's, that is great. But do that, go to a judo club! learn from a sensei, practice with the other judoka, the specialists. Do not water it down by having karate teachers, even black belts, who are only white belts in judo, trying to teach and then practice with each other. By all means, have a cross training day where you so some boxing, ran dori, grappling, mix it up. But still practice your pure karate without diluting it. And take instruction in your supplementary arts from real instructors at their clubs and practice with students of that art.

[@armandodeloa2796]

It does not take a rocket scientist to understand grappling, that is the good thing about Kenpo, it adapts to any system and can cause it to be better. You dont have to study years to understand one system if your already a master at one art you just adapt. Chew the meat spit out the bones. What most do not understand about Kenpo is that Kenpo intertwines any system into it, from ground to standing. It does not matter if your a black belt in any other system, if you are a Grandmaster in Kenpo you can adapt we have always taught this.

[@essamgossiel6377]

Kenpo is a brilliant martial art. It is very similar to Wing Chun kungfu and Silat. If one of these arts are learned you will not have a problem learning the other two arts. If they are all combined in an actual situation, then that would be very devastating

[@essamgossiel6377]

Check out Wing Chun kung fu with Emin Bostepe and Silat with Fred Mastro. You'd see some really explosive techniques and when you compare them to Kenpo, there's not much difference really

[@timstevens4925]

Wouldn't work...fights not going to happen like they think..magical thinking

[@badgejohnson5596]

Is there an instructional on how to fray your new black belt to make it look old? Kenpo guys are great at this.

[@Wolfillogamer]

It's not new, I know this guy, I practise kempo and he has the most leveled belt, he can't change his belt

[@irunwiththedead9777]

Badge Johnson If you do any martial art system long enough your belt doesn't stay new, genius. You would know that if you actually got out from behind the safety of your keyboard and trained. Go troll somewhere else.🙄

@2:15 what jeffy speakman did their was a bjj move i know cuse I study bjj for 4 months I know a lil that's a move in bjj they teach u when someone on top of u swap the leg

[@tjl4688]

Yes, that's Tani Otoshi/Rear Takedown/Valley Drop, depending on if you do judo/bjj/wrestling, etc.

[@pizzamax21]

I was a long term Ed Parker Kenpo practitioner. All I every heard was the rhetoric about street fighting and the science of street fighting, yet all we did was point fighting and practice very unrealistic fight choreography. Early in my training I witnessed a Kenpo and Kickboxing champion trip backwards in a fight only to have a street fighter pounce on him and beat the sh*t out of him. The cat is out of the bag. You can see thousands of street fighting videos and MMA fights that show you that bullsh*t doesn't work. Jeff Speakman is one of the few that is addressing those gaps between fact and fiction.

Yes. Ed Parker had some previous training in various FMA systems dating back from Hawaii.

[@AGC828]

Does any one else find it odd that in all traditional MA demo videos the attacker is attacking with the same MA style. In this case the attack ALSO happens to be a black belt in American Kenpo. What are the chances ? :)) You're walking to your car and 3-5 American Kenpo black belts attack you and you're able to identify how many attackers there are. :)) Who are the attackers and who are the spectators. HEH...Attacker #1 comes in with a straight Karate punch to the head, attacker #2 gets in Crouching Tiger stance ready to pounce...

[@jimlowe5433]

As in any endeavor you have to start somewhere. There are those who overplay this role of attacker to the defender. Just as in the learning of the ABC's, you are learning exact motion to a stimulated attack. The difference here is this is MA, and not self defense, as in Krav Maga, MMA, or any "reality" method. But in training, one may change the way he or she trains and place it in a more realistic setting. For each person, a way must be found. Not every path seems the right one. But, of course, this depends on the path one desires to take.

[@armandodeloa2796]

Most likely you dont have a clue what Kenpo is.

[@jimlowe5433]

I have to answer this one in this context. It is not really odd what you view in most videos. This is how things are explained using the particular ideology, in which the demonstrator is in. This occurs not only in Traditional, but Reality videos as well. Speculation is how many of these work. There is no definitive idea here. It is a mere matter of an idea. A real situation is Chaos, pure and simple. The ideas you see in some videos is what can work if everything works out. But everyone knows there are so many factors involved, this will never be the case.

[@jimlowe5433]

@@armandodeloa2796 How do you deduce the probability of my lack of understanding of Kenpo from what I stated? Please elaborate how my ignorance is shown.

[@armandodeloa2796]

@@jimlowe5433 I am sure you been in fights, and your fighting is good, however, when your in fights your opponent never reacts the way you train, with that in mind, we train one thing to another. A person who is the attacker helps us understand what step we can do or is a possibility. Does not mean it is written in stone. If i taught a knife attack to you i am not just going to stab you, i am going to give you instruction when i am finished you can move in multiple ways not just what i showed you as a foundation.

[@rodrigolembke2556]

That is all so beautifully, full of spirit but it does not really work! Yet I still practiced it beacause coordination is key in martial arts, and there is plenty in all of the movements and sequences

[@jimlowe5433]

Principles and concepts are at the heart of Kenpo. That is why it works, as in all things. The self defense techniques are composed of these.

[@kenpo86]

Schöne Zusammenschnitte

[@starscream6949]

Nobody throws straight punches! Dam it why keep practicing for it if it isn't practical. Ppl throw wild haymakers 👊

[@jimlowe5433]

Actually that is how American Kenpo originally started against. Those wild haymakers. Straight punches came later.

[@markdavis2784]

Jim is right. Kenpo was all about haymakers but now we have a problem where far more people are studying boxing, muy thai, or BJJ. Jeff Speakman speaks about this regarding why he started adapting Kenpo to 5.0. I study Krav as well as Kenpo and Krav has a lot of Muy Thai in it. IMHO it is good he made these adjustment.

[@AGC828]

He can't kick. Old age? Injury?? Those are karate style kicks too. He should have borrowed from TKD....

[@alfredodelacruz1864]

He doesn't have to kick if he physically can't that's what makes kenpo adaptable to what you physically can do you tailor it to you not the other way around tailoring to the style

[@tjl4688]

Karate took its kicks from Chinese styles, and TKD took its kicks from Karate, before modifying them. Chinese martial arts don't have many high kicks, and a lot of their roundhouse kicks are done to the front, even if they're done with the ball of the foot.

[@outofthebox7]

This is hilarious! That over self indulged intro bow is the pickle on top of the McDojo burger. Doesn't know how to kick, wrong fist positioning on the punches, certainly cant grapple. These kenpo guys live in a scripted fantasy world.
