Welcome to White Tiger Kenpo

Kenpo karate is a unique mixed martial art or MMA that traces it's near history to the Pa lama settlement on Oahu, Hawaii. It is based on approximately 150 self defense patterns cataloged by the members of the Black Belt Society, whose members included William Chow who was Adriano Emperado (Kenpo) instructor, Walter Choo (Karate), Joe Holck (Judo), Frank Ordonez (Jujutsu), and George C. Chang. Ed Parker another of William Chow's student brought Kenpo to the U.S. in the 1950’s and established American Kenpo as his style. The Tracy Brothers who were Parker students established the Tracy Kenpo based on these same techniques. The true origins of these self defense patterns are unknown but many theories and legends abound.

Stop Hit A-E

Stop Hit A-E

Teaches you how to use an initiation move or a possible way to start a technique. A and B is for long range strikes so you will use a Heel Palm or vertical punch, C close range this is why you use the elbow. D and E are designed for midrange you are too far for an elbow and to close for a straight punch so you use a hammerfist to the temple as well as a chop.

Make sure you end up in a hardbow on A and B variation.

On the C variation depending on wither you are stepping in with your left or right foot. If you step in with your right foot you will step into softbow and pivot to horse to generate your power. If you step in with you left foot you will go from fighting stance to softbow.

D and E Variation make sure you step to about 1 or 2 pm in softbow and pivot to horse or fighting stance.
