I showed this video to my husband, because we both do kenpo, and he immediately knew who she was; he said she had visited our school before and she is VERY GOOD. She very talented.
It's wonderful to see other women in Kenpo, she did her form look effortlessly. she did a Great job. keeps me looking forward as a woman in Kenpo. thanks.
Yes, I talked to her and Zach a few months back. if you are looking for info, check out the "Whipping Willow Assoc." website. She is on the Board of Advisors.
O'Sensei Tanaka is ABSOLUTELY MAGNIFICENT!! I have been trying to get recent information about her but have found zero. How is she doing in 2013 and beyond now? Does anyone know?
She is extremely talented. However I don't think I'll ever like Kenpo forms. They don't have the depth of the classical forms in Karate or most styles of Kung Fu.
I agree with you. Although I respect Ed Parkers effort and his life project I got to know that American Kempo has never been accepted as serious style. In my opinion it is too flashy. I practice Shotokan Karate and did 7 years of Kung Fu.
Woooow!! I've just starting to learn this form and I think that it's a cool form. Great execution by Dian Tanaka. Hugs from Spain!

I still remember this presentation by Dian-25 years later- one of the most impressive forms I have ever seen. How is Dian today and what is she doing?
En mi humilde opinión, la mejor versión de la forma larga 6 que he visto
Maravillosa
