AMERICAN KENPO KNOWLEDGE 101
CIRCULAR ROTATION – Rotation of your arm in a circle to build momentum prior to the final torquing action of your strike.
ELONGATED CIRCLES – The Lengthening of circular movements so that the paths in which they travel follow a more flattened arc. This maneuver shortens the time of action, and because of the modified angle of travel, is able to strike the target with greater speed, penetration and force. (Ed Parker's Encyclopedia of Kenpo, pg 47)
SKK Monthly Update –
Our children class is becoming more colorful now that we have two purple belts. Half of our yellow belts are well on their way to earning their orange belt. We want to welcome Tiara to our new group of white belts. If you have not said hi to our new group of students, please do so.
Our adult class is holding steady with some mainstays. Kudos! To those of you who are continuing to show up. For those of you that are unable to show on a regular basis, know that you are missed and you are always welcome back.
A huge thanks, to those students who have taken on instructor roles. You know who you are.
