Kenpo

kenpo KENPO means fist "principle," and is sometimes called Chinese boxing or Chinese Karate. It was brought into the open in Hawaii in the 1940's by James Mitose and popularized by the late Professor William K.S. Chow. The art was transplanted to southern California in the late 1950's where its best known exponent was the late Ed Parker.

Kenpo differs from many styles of karate in its preference for circular movement over linear techniques.
