In it, we take a humorous look at what happens when the government takes away the people's right to defend themselves. We thought this would be a timely topic given the current political climate and the debate going on right now about our 2nd amendment rights being infringed upon. And if nothing else, we think it's funny as hell. check us out at www.ChampionKarateFl.com

Steve Finn has produced a set (Yellow - 5th black) of Quick Reference DVDs of the Tracy System.

These DVDs are excellent. Very simple and to the point. There is no instructional, theoretical explanation, just physical application, done at slow speeds with a minimum of explanation, then at a faster, more powerful pace.

If you are a Tracy's instructor or Tracy's student, these DVDs are an incredibly valuable resource to have.

They are available from Mr. Finn at www.kenpokaratellc.com and also from Mr. Tracy at www.tracykenpokarate.com. ]]> Product Reviews Kenpodave http://www.kenpotalk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=10667 2 feet and counting http://www.kenpotalk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=10666&goto=newpost Sat, 06 Feb 2010 15:53:16 GMT Well this is crazy, we are getting a bad snow storm up here in the east, New Jersey,we have 2 feet and counting,this won't be done until 7 pm tonight,i can't wait untill i get to Orlando Fla, next week,but i have to try and dig out for now.:( ]]> General Discussion ackks10 http://www.kenpotalk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=10666 Updated Photography sites, feedback welcome http://www.kenpotalk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=10665&goto=newpost Sat, 06 Feb 2010 05:25:37 GMT I've updated both of my main photography sites.

In trying to apply SL4 concepts to the techniques I've been taught through my previous studies, it seems to me that the opening of Flashing Wings could be described as follows.

Left Lead push drag to 12:00 with Left Arm Bam Block and Right Arm Active rising Fore Arm Index.

In fact, I've been replacing any perry with a BAM block and any perry with elbow combination with BAM block/rising fore arm index. "Opening the Fan" and "Crashing Elbow" are a couple other techniques that I can think of that use this combination in the opening response.

My question: is this a valid interpretation of these movements in these techniques?

The Encyclopedia of Kenpo defines Anatomical Positioning as follows:

Quote:

What is your understanding of this principle? Why is it important to understand?

What other principles are closely related? How do they apply?

For the instructors: What methods or tools do you use to teach this principle? ]]> Kenpo General Celtic_Crippler http://www.kenpotalk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=10662
