IKCA Chinese Kenpo Karate Techniques

[@moxapunk1]

This is really cool. I've just submitted my IKCA Orange belt test (from Australia), & I'm very inspired by your videos. You are helping inspire my self training, thank you. Keep those videos coming!

[@dlowone]

I’ve watched this video a few times and boy some people can make Kenpo look so Dynamic and graceful at the same time this guy has great coordination and crisp movement, say what you want about the art , I bet you, this guy could hurt someone! But some people say the style sucks such it’s a shame they can’t see the beauty in it.

[@ralphmoore8267]

Thanks for this video. This is the only one I could find anywhere on the internet that included all techniques. I have studied Tracy's Kenpo for about 5 years but recently had a dojo open up near me that teaches IKAC as shown in your video. I live in Wyoming so there are not many options for martial arts. Thanks again, very useful.

[@moxapunk1]

Every time I watch this I get even more inspired to train.

[@ivanlaguerre4543]

I like your demo very much!!!! What is the name of the background music you are using for the demo?

[@ralithorn3798]

Nice combinations on pressure points with a smooth flow. Good work.

[@BradYaeger]

Not super familiar with IKCA but certainly know who Mr. Sullivian is . I got as far as 2nd Dan in Kenpo before going a different way but I still enjoy dusting off some techniques once in awhile and have very fond memories of it . I remember passing my green belt test the week Perfect Weapon came out and me and my school mates lost our damn minds ! Best wishes from Seattle .

[@CovertStreetWarrior]

Very nice Brother. So good to see the IKCA producing top quality. I think I remember you from the seminar in Amite, Louisiana 2001. Salute.

[@shabblabbat]

Thrusting Release and Clapping Kitty are my favs. Very Ameridote.

[@zenshinacademy4096]

although I do not train Kenpo I have always enjoyed and drawn from this system for inspiration.

[@stonec5611]

The techniques and titles are very similar to American Kenpo. Is that part of this styles lineage?

[@evilxmetalband6532]

Watching you do these in succession gives it a Larry Tatum type of vibe.I know at least through Blue Belt.Mr Sullivan was with Mr Parker along time but I'm glad they shortened the material.Some of the Black and Brown techniques from Parkers Kenpo have 17 steps to them bordering on the ridiculous. I started training IKCA in 99 I think.Good job with this video

[@tonymontana3949]

All the best for you

[@ralfstofer8609]

I allways wonder how to teach the oponend to behave like in the demonstration videos?

[@mirko9967]

Sensei is it possible to add more videos, of techniques like dance of death or maybe custom requests? please

[@MikeWillis-rp1os]

Do you know if anyone teaches in New Orleans area. Kepno only

[@JMEllisJr]

Nice demo of the technique curriculum. Thank you, sir.

[@tonymontana3949]

Hello i believe you like also American Kenpo

[@tri-citieskenpokarate735]

Our Grandmaster was a first generation black belt under Mr. Parker so yea we look very American kenpo

[@darrelltregear756]

Whats difference between Chinese kenpo and American kempo

[@MichaelT83310]

Ones Chinese, the other American

They actually all come from the same system and that's Chinese Kara ho kempo karate. Even American kenpo come from the same grandmaster.

[@FrankieBlueEyes]

American Kenpo was Ed Parker's creation. Prior to coining that term, he called it Chinese Kenpo. Chuck Sullivan & Vic Leroux were instructors under Parker and created ICKA, which is basically a cliff notes version of American Kenpo with a heavy emphasis on old school basics. As a result, Mr. Sullivan and Leroux decided to refer to their art as Chinese Kenpo.

[@jarrmekdansby7142]

If they incorporated western boxing and wushu sanda, this would be even more effective in my opinion.

[@TheRealSenseiNate]

I agree 100%. I’ve actually competed in Sanda. Live sparring with with rule sets like sanda are critically important to helping martial artists develop and grown. Appreciate your thought.

[@tri-citieskenpokarate735]

Howdy, I think this was just posted to demonstrate the Chuck Sullivan System of Chinese Kenpo. I know this gentleman and he is a stellar martial artist that incorporates a bunch of other material as well. Cross training is very important.

[@jarrmekdansby7142]

@@tri-citieskenpokarate735 Totally agree. That's why I love Kajukenbo so much.

[@metacomputer]

I’m wished we’d standardize the names.

[@alaincondello6652]

For me the real kenpo is before the creative forms from ed parker you must to see old footage " ed parker two man fight " it's efficient self défense without superficial movements..

Rad!!!

[@yt2ndch]

it seems to be an improved version of American Kenpo. Very similar to European Kajukenbo (much better than american kajukenbo)

[@stonec5611]

As an American Kajukenbo practitioner, I would respectfully disagree.

[@TimothyAdams-ln2jr]

Very nicely done, but not Chinese Kenpo.

[@kajoreglia7458]

I'm not sure what's Chinese about that. Please 〜no offence intended.

[@niallgreene5718]

Kicks are rubbish for a blackbelt

[@niallgreene5718]

100 % not just for him ... all the kendo.. kicking is shocking.. always falling away from the target .. so how can you deliver power.. some of the hand to hand stuff is good... but all that ridiculous grunting on each technique... effing power rangers on speed... old Ed was a bit of a chancer .. their knife kata is pure nonsense
