Hi all,
I am trying to decide on a martial art and found it in another post a little bit about Kenpo. A local school of mine is taught by a 3rd degree black belt in Shaolin Kenpo and a 2nd degree in Jiu Jitsu. His school specializes in self defense, which is what I consider a top priority (along with conditioning.
My question is: Can anyone offer any background on their own training in Kenpo? Does the instructor of this school sound like a high enough level? Do you consider it highly effective in SD situations? Sorry if a lot of this sounds basic...I'm just starting out, but very serious about starting. Thanks.
