Is anyone studying Kempo?

[gina100]

I was reading on here that this is another form of karate. Is there anyone here who has practiced this style before or know where I can find more info on it. Thanks!

No I haven't studied this before and did not know it existed until just now. It is amazing how many different martial arts there are out there. I did some research and here are a few links on it.

Did you mean KENPO? There is a KENPO form of Karate, founded by Ed Parker. I hold a black Belt in it so if you want to find out any further info just ask away!

Kempo and kenpo are used interchangeably the same way that many other arts have multiple spellings/pronunciation of their names.
Considering that the word seems to be a bastardization of the Chinese word kuntao, or "fist way", I think there's little room left to argue over "kempo" vs "kenpo".
