Re: Northern Mantis---Jutsow
Poor you...the pain your eyes have seen...the pain...your stomach felt, keeping from laughing your guts out.
Disturbingly more is when some of his students move on to become "Master Sifu Sensei..." and create more of the "art".
Sorry to say that CMA is losing it's tradition and strength. As this and future generations come along, the less they can bring to the table, mainly because the true essence of CMA will be lost. CMA cannot be whole without the essence/philosophy, forms will not do it. Today, practioners do not have the time to study under someone as they did in generations past. I, too am a culprit to this. Only a few will possess this knowledge and our only hope is not to practice the physical part, but to take time and talk to our teachers. Bruce Lee knew of this and began to evolve the art from his philosophy and understanding of martial arts, not just WC, Crane, etc... , he did this like a true artist, whether its martial, sculpting, drawing, painting, etc.....

I AGREE WITH TENTIGERS AND THOSE WHO HAVE EXPERIENCED TRADITIONAL KENPO!
Please don't judge Kenpo by recent wantabes. Since Parkers death there has been alot of BS out there.
Traditional Kenpo is excellent. If in doubt come work out with me in Minnesota. You will see what the System is about... The system has roots in Shaolin but is more japanese in flavor.
Rapid fire application is our trademark!
You have The Power,

What's wrong with gold lame?
There is only one Kempo and it's Shoalin Karate Kempo and only one master and that's Grandmaster Freddie Vallari.
Please line up to the left in single file so I may dispatch all you unbelievers.
