4th Degree Black Belt Material
One
of the motivating factors that practitioners of kenpo enjoy is belt
advancement. Over the years we have received many emails and calls from
practitioners who get disillusioned after finding that the advanced
degrees of kenpo are by either; repeating the same material over and
over, being buddies with 'one of the boys in the inner circle', or by
buying degrees at high prices and favors. This reduces the truth and
validity in ranking and hinders the growth of the kenpo practitioner
by holding him back, or stroking his ego.
The
Elite-Fighters System of Martial Arts has developed a belt ranking equivalency
for practitioners of Kenpo who wish to further their belt ranking achievements.
To do this, the Elite-Fighters founders have analyzed the belt curriculum
and approximate skill levels of the known systems of kenpo, and compared
them with the standards set forth by the Elite-Fighters
Ranking System. The result of this analysis have yielded a belt
equivalency for additional curriculum to 9th degree black belt.
The
American
Kenpo Legacy Association is the authorizing body for the advanced
degrees of American Kenpo. The Elite-Fighters System of Martial Arts
incorporates an advanced form of kenpo. The Elite-Fighters System is
a perfect method to advance kenpo practitioners. The following table
contains the requirements for the Advanced Belt Degrees of American
Kenpo:

The Elite-Fighters System brings the focus of what kenpo is about
back to the practitioner. Many practitioners lose perspective focusing
on which branch of the kenpo tree where
an association or instructor is found. The Elite-Fighters System focuses
back on the roots of the tree and trims
off the dead wood (to follow the analogy). Originally, Kenpo Karate
was a complete martial art which included long range kick boxing,
grappling, joint locks, take downs, weapons, offensive and defensive
methods of fighting and more. Many of the modern variations of kenpo
have lost the roots of the complete aspect of Kenpo and have, instead,
limited focus only on specialized areas; such as, sport competition,
forms, self defense techniques, etc. As a result, many kenpo instructors
have blended kenpo with other arts, like Brazilian Ju Jutsu, Filipino
Martial Arts, and Tae Kwon Do to fill in the forgotten areas. The
Elite-Fighters System have taken a purely logical approach to reviving
Kenpo by studying all aspects of interpersonal combat. Whether you
are from Parker American Kenpo, Tracy Kenpo, Chinese Kempo, or any
other modern or traditional derivation of kenpo, you will find that
the Elite-Fighters System will allow you to internalize and master
the martial arts.
