Kenpo karate The best self-defence techniques - Larry Tatum

[@errnapo]

Kenpo is the best American Self defense system

[@maexpert11]

As far as Kenpo goes, Larry Tatum is a technician through and through I enjoy watching him demonstrate and listening to his explanation a lot of people don't realize that demonstration videos are not for seasoned practitioners but for people at a beginning level learn to crawl before you learn to walk everyone watches MMA and stuff like that and doesn't realize those guys start off at a basic level before they become fighters

[@elderkenya4488]

To all fhe inexperienced people on here trashing Kenpo Karate,you can't be real martial artist.Its not about sport competition,its about life saving techniques.You want something fancy try taekwondo or that watered down team karate.Thats the problem martial arts has been watered down to the point people don't recognize a real system.Im a high level black belt and I know Kenpo works.

[@MrMonte234cristo]

Amen.

[@MistahMolosser]

It would be really interesting to hear a detailed recollection of how you know kenpo works. Also really would like to know more about how you spar in practice.

There is a reason why I have every DVD from GM Larry Tatum.

[@MistahMolosser]

And what is that reason pray tell

[@brendanpius930]

Boxing combined with kenpo is more effective

For the ones who discredit something before trying it, try it out before you damn it! Too many times, people we look at something and judge it to be worthless without experiencing it. Experience it with a good teacher, and then if doesn't go according to your idea, then you can complain about its value! This reminds me of movies in which everyone complains it's not possible to do things like in the movie. It's just a movie!!

🤣 That's because much of this video are demonstrations. Others were demonstrations or teaching techniques/concepts at their basic level. The next levels relate to what if and flow where the attacker counters with "unscripted" responses, etc. Whenever you see Kenpo techniques on video, for the most part, they are demonstrating the basic version of the technique/concept. If you train in American Kenpo, hopefully you learn this. If you read Ed Parker's Infinite Insights... Series, 1-5 you will soon realize there is a lot more to it then what you see watching videos.

Took kenpo when I was younger. Sadly it’s really just over complicated karate/kickboxing the relies on opponent cooperation and theatrics. (Not the way the guys partners scream and grunt) you are far better off just finding a good karate or kickboxing school.

[@allaboutmusic139]

Finally somebody admits this. Kenpo targeting is good but the practical application is limited. It doesn’t account for resistance to techniques. Bit of a cult like personality to it as well. There is no end all be all art. And training for the street/self defense is simple. Not all this.

[@errnapo]

Kenpo is meant for realistic self defense not sport competition where most of its techniques are banned. It is not a sport like kickboxing, bjj or mma

@@errnaposo a kenpo black belt could beat Jon jones in a street fight?
