Ed Parker's
American Kenpo Karate

KENPO is a combination of classical Martial arts and modern scientific principles. These principles incorporate concepts of motion, torque, and gravity, which in turn create a more practical Martial Art for the street environment.

Ed Parker developed this system based on Chinese KENPO which he studied in Hawaii, while teaching Karate during his enrollment at Brigham & Young University in Provo, Utah. He realized that classical was not practical.

By adding modern scientific principles and concepts of motion, American Kenpo was born. Through constant refinement and thought we are teaching the most advanced form of Kenpo known.
