Anatomy of Kempo
     
 

Anatomy of Kempo

Our Goal here is to design the ultimate study guide for those in the Kempo/Kenpo arts.

We are using Shaolin Kempo but these discussions will work for all Martial art styles.

SHARE this with your Teacher/Instructor/ of your Martial Arts School
You can learn from books videos and more but nothing compares to the touch of the Masters hand on your life.

On the next few pages you will see I have broken the system down move by move from White to black belt including blocking systems, combinations and forms.
The Material after Black Belt has been written out Step by Step, Move by Move all the forms up to 5th degree Black belt. However The Material has not been plugged into the Anatomy of Kempo I left some work for you to do. I have yet to meet an Instructor, Teacher, or Master who just handed out all the answers. Remember this is a study guide.
The Anatomy of Kempo breaking down the moves in the Shaolin Kempo system.
We are referring to the Blocking systems, Combinations and Forms only.
We know the Jujitsu techniques The Kempo punch techniques Club, Knife and Gun is different from school to school.
We are going to start you off with a few questions and some of them will be answered. Remember this is a study guide.

What is the number one stance in the system? From White to Black belt including blocking systems, combinations, and forms almost 80 Horse stances are used. The Cat Stance is approximately half that of the Horse from White to Black. When you study the rest of the forms up to 5th degree will this statement stay true the ratio of Cat to Horse stances?
What is the number one block inward or upward or maybe something else?
What is the number one Punch or strike?
The Front Two knuckle Punch is the first strike we are taught but is it the most widely used in the system.
Front punch vs. thrust punch I found 38 front punches and 24 thrust punches up to Black Belt One Front punch was used in the combinations up to Black belt all other front two knuckle punches were in the forms and blocking sets.
Out of the 24 thrust punches 11 were used in the combinations.
If you believe Forms are for basics and combinations teach us the fighting arts. Then that raises another question.
What is the number one Kick? Front Kick, I only count 19 in the system from White to black belt.
Back kick; I count 2 from White to Black belt.
Side Kick, I count 16 from white to Black.
Round house Kick, I Count 3 before black belt
Crescent Kick, I count 2 before black belt
Reverse Crescent Kick, I count ZERO before Black belt in the required material blocking systems Combinations and Forms.
Hook Kick, I found 1 in combination #28
Ax Kick, I Found ZERO before Black Belt
Flying Front Kick, The First one is in Kata Six a Black Belt form

Spinning back kick, The First one is in Combination #12

What about Blocking on the outside closing off the centerline?
Example combination #3 Step up Inward block thrust punch.
The Stance gave you angle and position the block and counter punch gave you control momentarily of all their weapons. We see from this position they can’t strike with the other hand or foot. Why then in the first forty combinations are we told 21 times go to the inside? Remember your answer to these and many more questions will change from Black belt to 5th degree.
In one form we call the move a rising back fist in another form it’s called a Sun fist. What two forms am I discussing and why do we change the name?
We study six animals Snake Tiger Dragon Leopard Crane and Monkey How many times can you find a Snake, Tiger Dragon, Leopard, Crane or Monkey movement or technique in the system?
Which animal dominates the system?

What combinations use back up mass as a principle?
What combinations use Marriage of Gravity as a principle?
What combinations use Torque as a principle?

What muscles come into play in a front ball kick?
What muscles come into play in a back kick?

The triangle VS over the shoulder what do you find works?
First the triangle an imaginary line drawn from shoulders to solar plexus focus in this area while blocking punches from your practice partner.

Second over the shoulder have your practice partner stand in a fighting stance as you look over their closest shoulder using peripheral vision block their strikes as you focus over the shoulder

Once we engage an attacker there is continuous destructive motion based on continuous contact. This is how Kempo flows with striking and locking and felling as a single fighting system. True or False


When you throw a kick what moves first? Foot Knee Hip or your Head
What’s the best position for your guard, Center closed, Center open, Hands High or Low

When examining Zones what strikes are dominate in each Zone?
The High zone targets above the shoulder
The Middle zone targets above waistline and below shoulder
The Low zone targets below waistline

Let’s look at combination #2 the back two knuckle strike is in the High zone

The elbow strike is in the middle zone and the knife hand is in the low zone.
What are the twelve branches of Shaolin in Kempo?

What is the first combo you think of when you read the words grab and strike?

What combo do you think of when you read the words block and redirect?

What combo do you think of here jump away to avoid?

True kempo is about sharing what you know or showing what you know?


What can we learn from a tree that bends in the wind then snaps back?

What are natural movements in Kempo?

What is meant by the no ego mind set?

Which of the following two statements are true?

The Chi follows the mind in harmony with your breathing

A mouse chases a cat that chases the dog

Give a man a fish he eats for day teach him how to fish and……..

Teach a man a kempo technique he can…… teach him a principle and ……..

Kick no higher than the waist, what’s the primary reason for this statement?

Balance is every thing power in blocks strikes and kicks start with good balance

Over extending can make you vulnerable to losing balance and slows you down YES or No?

What dose your teacher mean when they say keep your eye on the elbow?

The elbow moves slower then the fist and is easier to read

How dose this work with the following phase the knee is to the leg as the elbow is to the arm.

What is meant by closing off the center line?

Mental drill ask a student to participate in Kempo says then say Kempo says training horse Kempo says front punch kempo says front kick kempo says one push up now two push ups hey kempo didn’t say two push ups test the concentration then try kempo says two push ups Simon Sez four push ups hey this is not Simon Sez its kempo says LOL

They say most people are afraid of falling dying and the unknown what can you do to conquer these fears? Study seeking the truth in these areas what happens when you die if you know your not afraid what happens when you fall if you know how the fear is gone.

One basic principle to eagle claw is to hold seize or control followed by quick strike with the other hand where do you see this in Kempo?
May I suggest you’re seeing the art of the Eagle or beginning of Chin Na

True eagle claw techniques break bones separate muscle and tendons true or false?

True eagle techniques of kempo attack pressure points and disrupt Chi flow of an opponent and are the entrance into DIM MAk in Kempo true or false?

Iron wall is created by doing a lot of sit ups true or false.

We absorb the energy from an attack by rooting true or false.

The Principle of punching through an opponent and ending each strike with a new one is from what animal?

Connect the words representing the animals

Dragon Walking
Bear Coiling
Tiger parting
Snake stretching
Crane playing
Horse pouncing
Leopard dancing
Monkey jumping



When a move in a form is copied right side and left this means the application can be done inside and outside yes or no? Think of the opening Kata one and Kata Two

In Combination #6 distance is our friend based on the lengths of WHAT?
Your arm their leg your leg their arm their finger your nose

In combination #3 which works better no block/inward parry/Pak Sao
In combination #3 the opponent in a boxers stance punches of the back leg how does this change your technique

One of the Keys to true techniques once you activate the technique from the first move the rest should be done blindfolded or you have broken the circuit yes or no?

If you should be able to defend yourself in three moves or less why are so many kempo techniques 6, 7, 8, or more moves

The best instruction is from a book/ a video/ or the touch of a masters hand and your answer is what?

Combination #5 is found in Kata one yes or no?

Where are the pressure point knock outs in your combinations?

What is meant by the clock in teaching Kempo?

The opening of combination #4 is found in 8 point blocking system or Ten point ?

Can you graft Combination #4 into combination #18

In combination #18 what is meant by small circle or large circle in the takedown ?

The take down in Combination #3 involves three angle and direction where is the three angle and direction in combination #19

Earlier I stated Hook kick I found one in Combination 28 was that statement correct yes or No? hint combo 21

I found Combination 22 in Kata three did you?

In combination #27 the final strike dropping at 45 degree angle dose what to the body internally you may need to check with your instructor

In combination #29 where is the implosion found?


How many kempo punch techniques can you create from Kata One? Then start looking at all your forms asking yourself the same question.


What combinations are offensive in nature? Example may be 8, 9 and 12

What combinations are defensive in nature? Examples may be 3, 4, and 16

What combinations can you use in sparring?
What combinations are jujitsu techniques in nature?

We know to practice are techniques Right side and left.
However which combinations will work inside and out?
Example (Combination #6 we block, kick, cross and cover) blocking inside or outside the technique works it’s a simple maneuver.
Combination # 2 we block /back two knuckle/ elbow/ scoop take down/ knife hand all on the inside try this on the outside
When we practice combination #5 we go inside try this technique on the outside.
When you try combinations # 3, 4, 18 and many more you will get a different response from your practice partner.
We say grab at lower ranks and Seize at the higher ranks why dose the terminology change?
What about the 1000 reps?
We here a lot about how important it is to practice all your material 1000 times for each combination, blocking system, and forms. The question here How many of you can say I have done Pinion One my first form 1000 reps before I received my black belt. How many of us can say we have practiced Kata Five 1000 reps before black belt?

What is the ratio of Hand strikes to Kicks? I found from white to black almost 500 hand strikes punches strikes elbows and the like verses just over 100 kick from knees to front kicks back kicks side kicks round house kicks hook kicks and crescents. That’s a Five to One ratio. Remember to insert the Material up to 5th degree and see how much the ratio changes.

We have presented a few questions and given some answers to get you started. Take this guide to your dojo and ask your instructor or fellow students to develop a series of questions and compare answers. The higher you go in rank from White to Black and ultimately Master level many of the questions and answers will change Good Luck on your Journey
