New thread on KENPO Master Keys:

shirotoratiger.proboards.com/thread/1878/kenpo-master-keys


As we have been doing a lot of work in KENPO covering F5 and it's concepts, and the extensions, how the belt levels works, this is a good time to post this list of how each Kenpo waza relates to an MK

We have referred to this grouping in the past in some sessions when relevant eg

Thundering Hammers
Attacking Mace
Sleeper
Dance Of Death
Flashing Wings

as they all come off the Outside Block, Soto Uke, against a Punch

Thundering Hammers itself and Flashing Wings are in F4, while Sleeper and Dance Of Death are in F5


In STMA this expands our practice in other phases

In JJ we have groups of techniques eg Mount series and Guard series, etc

In KARATE the outside block that starts Thundering Hammers Soto Uke relates to the first Chudan Kihon Ippon Kumite, the block for Five Swords relates to the second, etc


While revisiting Karate, KOPPO, Kali and Wing Chun, and while looking at the new sets from SILAT this year, we can see the ENTRY phase in any of those reflected in the MK of KENPO
