WHY TRAIN AT BARRON SHEPHERD'S AMERICAN KENPO KARATE AND FITNESS?
You must first ask yourself "What do I want in a martial art?" Do you want a black belt or do you want to learn a new sport or exercise, do you want to look flashy or cool. If it is any of these then the nearest martial arts school should suffice. However if you are looking for a practical and effective martial art, then American Kenpo is the answer. While not the quickest or easiest path to black belt, no other system offers the depth of logic based knowledge that is encompassed in Kenpo.
Although Kenpo's ethics, standards, principles and use as a means to develop discipline, courage and self control are in common with other martial arts, Kenpo is not for everyone. Training In American Kenpo reguires dedication, motivation and a desire to put forth the effort required to learn this comprehensive system.
Kenpo Karate is a balanced system of Self-Defense, utilizing both hands and feet. It is a no-nonsense, realistic, proven system of self defense. American Kenpo relies on the laws of physics, using concepts, principles and theory. A kenpoist uses knowledge of anatomy and body mechanics to overcome a much bigger attacker. Kenpo as designed, will teach a person to survive against an assault by multiple aggressors. American Kenpo is known for it's very fast hand speed and powerful kicks.
As a practioner of American Kenpo the student will learn basics of Kenpo, sets, forms, self-defense techniques, freestyle fighting, anatomy, basic psychology of different types of aggressors, conflict resolution techniques, use of force, and weapons defense among many other things.
From the very first lesson the student begins to formulate self-defense techniques. The student will learn proper movements utilizing the natural weapons of the body, hands, feet, knees and elbows. Starting from the first lesson the student will feel a sense of achievement as the student's whole body is awakened from each workout. Kenpo Karate's unique training system improves flexibility, co-ordination, muscle tone, endurance, quick reflexes and agility. Kenpo is not a mindless workout, but rather a workout that keeps you focused, so as to work out the mind as well as the body.
Kenpo Karate maximizes self esteem and increases confidence.In addition to confidence building, we also employ the four major cornerstones of morality and integrity in the Martial Arts: HONESTY, COURTESY, RESPECT AND DISCIPLINE. The student may discover a new inner harmony and outer ability which can help them throughout life. We do more than just teach someone how to punch and kick. For many, Kenpo is a life long journey of self mastery. Obtaining a mastery over one's self rather than the mastery over others. KENPO IS A WAY OF LIFE
Through this, all ages - young and old- find that discipline becomes something that is reachable, and on top of everything, it is fun. So, bring a smile when you come in!
