Kenpo is a MA of concepts, I have trained and taught for over 40 years, I always respect and admire Master Steve Mohammed 👍 We faced each other in 72 as warriors. Steve came out the Victor one of my best memories is losing to him.

Very good for close quarter combat, yes, very good for street defence, i particularly like the use of both hands, to block divert and strike i do know its very affective, in close quarter situations, keeping guard up using other hand to continually deflect even when striking and using both hands at all times yes its affective, learning energy blocks and strikes does take a little longer , some people do have natural ability , others must become aware there is spiritual element when directing this energy , yes i used to train for many yeas, its very good to learn open handed techniques as well as closed technique, one must learn to feel the technique, , we used to train under many scenario's, as i say this particular form affective if learnt correctly for street self defence,

And this type of Teaching is rarely seen outside of their DoJo’, containing outstanding techniques that bring the practitioner mountains of strength & good health, & excellent philosophy for life & a good way to live your life, thank you.

I would recommend this style of martial art, even though i did not practice this style,, i can see many great features in this discipline, i do know when this was made you can tell techniques, were slowed down for camera's and angles, well thought out what i will say to anyone, considering learning, always seek out a dojo, school, with history and find out the teachers teacher, and their teachers,, each style has something to offer,, if your prepared to put in the time and dedication, and also the suffering, that will come with it , but remember, each person training with you, has got to get up go to school, work, or tend to their families in the morning, , always respect your dojo, your art, your style, your students, practitioner's, that train alongside you, learn to respect yourself, then you can also respect others, , too, remember each style has something to offer, , but do not be deluded , it takes hard work on your part, martial arts saved my life many times. Over the years, train until it becomes second nature, , become aware of your surroundings take nothing for granted, walk away from trouble if you can, run if yiu can, live, but if you cannot do either of those, at least you stand a little chance, but always seek out the best teachers instructors,, from this video i can tell this man knows his stuff, very affective in street situation it depends what you want to learn,. Some people just like the forms to stay fit , the katas, using imaginary opponents, but to do it properly find a school dojo that can also apply those katas forms in real life situations then you will understand the techniques even more, instead of just learning the set movements, ,, 8 wish each new beginner the dedication needed, and spirit needed to excel, , each style as something to offer, its finding the right instructor sensei, this one i can recommend,

My background is Shotokan karate, boxing and MMA mixed with some sambo. In my opinions , some of the techniques shown here can be very practical in a real fight, if their length can be shorten to contain no more than 3 strikes/hits, since like in boxing, a human being would usually allow his opponent strike/hit him three times the most before he reacts. Otherwise the opponent would begin to look like a dummy and the sequences become unrealistic, which is what the critics of this system scold the most.

That's an interesting "perspective" on your part, alternatively, after more than 25 years of studying a few different instructors and their "styles" of the system EPAK, this looks intimately familiar to what I've been doing for so long. Unless there's an extra arm or leg in there somewhere, I saw nothing "new", timing, methods of execution, paths and lines of action, same. The only real "complaint", if you can call it that, is I'd have like to see more definitive contact from the instructor on the experienced black belt student. Otherwise, awesome refresher on the elements of basic motion. "Good basics is good karate, good karate is good basics".

Full contact fighters get trophies too. Real value is not what you see per se, but what you learn from your confrontation about yourself expression. BTW....real fighter will not criticize another's way of fighting if it works for that person. Instead they will look to see what tool they can use from that way, and put in their tool box.

I understand you wouldn't aim to block or take a strike with open and loose fingers but at the point of interception or parrying you're generally not using your fingers but further up, back of hands or palm, wrists and forearms.

I don't know if it's a characteristic of the art itself or this particular practitioner. But what I noticed though is some of the counter movements with the opposite hand that he strikes with could be with the aim to generate power. Equal and opposite reaction physics type of thing.

It's because his Kenpo Karate is very urban he has always been this way because in the hood stuff is very different real talk 💯💯💯💯💯💯 So he and the BKF took this form of Kenpo to Streets for more practicality purposes. So yes of course it's going to look different.
