American
Kenpo Legacy Association
The American Kenpo Legacy Association
is dedicated to the preservation of the American Kenpo Karate the Ed
Parker had taught prior to his death. The minimal requirements for belt
ranking promotions was listed in Ed Parker's Infinite Insights Into
Kenpo Series, Vol. 5. In addition, Ed Parker had published the IKKA
Accumulative Journal and his IKKA newletter, of which Ed had us to submit
several articles with regards to the physics of Kenpo. Some call our
approach to the preservation of kenpo as "preservationists."
To some extent this is true. We understand the process that Ed Parker
had designed in teaching and transmitting the concept, principles and
theories of American Kenpo. That is why, therefore, we teach all students
the Ideal Phase of each self-defense technique in the same manner that
Ed Parker had designed. After the student has learned all that the Ideal
Phase technique contains, we then teach the student how to apply the
concept of the "Formulation Equation" to tailor the Kenpo
Techniques for maximum effectiveness based on their own natural abilities
and difficiencies. Ed Parker stated that the student must always learn
to tailor, the instructor must always teach a from a solid foundation.
Ed also stated, "The student is one who understand how, the instructor
understands why."
