Man Rick would be fucked up if Tatum didn't have control. Thanks to Rick and the crew for helping with this awesome selfdefense techniques wow pretty cool stuff!
Looks like alot of overkill from average person including myself but once you know the meaning behind the technique s they make more sense than just alot of show.
Excelente, el maestro Larry Tatum siempre se mueve con una velocidad y elegancia, su técnica es impecable. Se nota q el Grand Master Ed Parker lo entreno muy bien
The techniques presented by Mr. Tatum are meant to develop one's own personal alphabet (a personal flow). It is a representation on how one can manipulate the body with each strike. A real fight is chaotic, with too much going on to execute a technique that has been shown. It is one's hope that through a chaotic situation, bits and pieces of techniques learned will come together and flow.
I agree with you! Many martial artists put down form and technique but the benefits of practicing them are priceless. My stance, core and striking have benefited tremendously from working form and technique
you can use maybe 1 or 2 steps from each techniques,but that give you the advantage in a fight, you are able to control your own body and dont fight like a little girl.
All of the strikes shown in a technique can be executed. Is it going to bring the same probable response as the technique shown? It really depends on many factors so one cannot say indefinitely that a strike thrown will ALWAYS produce the same response. As far as advantages go, there are tons that kenpo has.
100% that's why it's very hard to see people uploading green/brown techniques and analysing them for their street credit. They just don't get it. Theres no context to their understanding.
why do so many martial artist design techniques expecting the opponent to stay put while delivering multiple strikes? what you see in mma reality, people react from the first strike
Very good and common question and critique. My understanding on this with my experience In American Kenpo, the attacker is literally called a dummy at this point. This is the basic stage of learning a technique (concepts). The multiple moves are for the opponent's potential responses (defense and counters). Next stage, the partner becomes an opponent that counters the kenpoists attempts (throwing the monkey wrenches in or the devil's advocate, so to speak) developing more realistic potentials. It is assumed that the opponent has some kind of training or fighting experience. Training with a variety of partners (with a variety of training and experience) exposes more potential possibilities of reaction and counters by opponents, eventually getting to the point of just being natural in response and movement. What people usually see in the videos are the techniques or concepts being expressed at a more basic level and not the more developed levels. Hope this helps with your question.
Clearly its set up but the same principles apply. My friend has a blackbelt and is only 5'1 and fucked up three cops with it. Of course he was drunk but this shit works. I agree with you if its fake then dont use it. For example Tae Kwon Do is all kicks, yes very unrealistic.
because Parker's Kenpo (which this is a rip off of) teaches the alphabet of motion. to follow up if the 1st technique didnt do the job. Its just a way to lean motion. You wont be doing any of this as it is shown on the demo necessarily in its entirety
Although some choreographed self-defense techniques, like Five Swords, can be used in real life, the soul purpose is merely to teach the flow of Kenpo.
Parker taught the alphabet of motion. Its up to the student to become so fluent that he can handle real life attacks. Read up on Parker Kenpo and youll see what i am saying.
Good god! This is SOOOOO poorly edited. EVERY single technique is mislabeled. However.... I do love the fact that Larry thanks anyone he beats the shit out of :D
Kenpo Karate was never intended to be a tradition based martial art that barely moves outside the comfort zone of the techniques, sets, and forms that laid its foundation; the origins of the art itself are alterations from a variety of Asian martial arts.
yes. i merely meant the techniques shown here are not as taught by Ed Parker, at least as is now known and taught in schools that continue his exact teaching of each technique as passed down from his original teaching.
also maybe i was too harsh in my original comment. its not a ripoff. its merely a variance on the technique as was origiinally created by Mr Parker. certainly one can gain something from it as represented by Mr Tatum.

Thanks, Larry. God bless!
GM Larry Tatum. The best Kenpo Grandmaster. I love his Art.

All these years later still love watching Mr. Tatum's flow
Man Rick would be fucked up if Tatum didn't have control. Thanks to Rick and the crew for helping with this awesome selfdefense techniques wow pretty cool stuff!
Before there was Master Ken there was . . .
This is hilarious
Looks like alot of overkill from average person including myself but once you know the meaning behind the technique s they make more sense than just alot of show.
Thanks to these abusive techniques against the groin, Rick' nuts are now known as Skippy, the famous peanut butter

Watching this makes me admire the sparring partners here. They take a beating. But without that we really wouldn't see the best of the techniques.
That’s not sparring
This is excellence of Kenpo Art. Genuine Professor and genuine performance. This is the Art.
Perfect weapon perfect style karate kempo master Larry tatum sir, i salute you god bless you brother
Thank you Rick.
I never learned back breakers extension. Always love those close kneels when on top of the body.
Works well on film.

HI
His best weapons were those powerful blows that kept the opponents frozen in time so he could finish them
This is so funny 😂😂😂😂
The best
Rick was here !
No assistants were harmed during the filming of this video....except for Rick, Rick is paralyzed.
"God, thank you rick" ;)
Could someone upload separately the video of the Technique called: "Snapping Twig" ??
Think im gong to get "Thank you Rick" tattooed on my arm lol.
Is this Chuck Norris brother? lol. This vid is so oldskool.
Has anyone ever seem Mr. Tatum sparring against someone who actually fights back?
At least Larry wasn’t Rick Rolled
awesome
hi
I believe its true. Kenpo maybe considered overkill but its better to br over skilled in case something happens

American kempo suck so hard. So doshin kempo ( shorinji kempo ) is the real and best. this variant its only a bad copy
Ed Parker Kenpo rip off
. I trained in Parker lineage. this is just a perversion.
