a style or system i always found interesting was Ed Parker´s Kempo system.
the roots of it are old school but also modern interpretations of the Hawiian & chinese
principles.

Until i really looked at it..it looked like just a flurry of arms.
a lot of Okinawan & Chinese in his system.

Good video but annoying music.

It would have been great to study with Wally Jay.

yes Ed Parker isn´t given enough credit. He was truly a man of inspiration in (his art) of Kenpo.
the Roots of his art.

When I was a kid I had all of Ed Parker and Bruce Tegners paperback books as well as a slew of Black Belt Magazines.

I`d carry a Parker or Tegner paperback in my back pocket in case I got into a fight.....if a guy threw a punch at me,I`d ask him to wait until I could turn to page 58 to look how to block the punch or counter attack. LOL

No,actually in the late 60`s and very early 70`s a black hippie type guy in my neighborhood taught a few of us kids for free in his back yard.....I was off and on and never really stuck with it.

I remember a lot of stuff that he taught us though.
