A Great Place to Learn Kenpo - Kenpo Orphans Welcome!

Sacramento Kenpo Karate is a very warm and friendly school teaching the art of self-defense. It's a great place for women to feel safe and for men to smack the heck out of each other, if that's what they want. The men can feel safe too. :)

SKK terminology as presented in…
Ed Parker’s Encyclopedia of Kenpo
The Zen of Kenpo
Infinite Insights Volumes 1 – 5
Secrets of Chinese Karate

DARKNESS – (Ed Parker’s Encyclopedia of Kenpo, pg. 38)
A term used in self-defense techniques, that refers to attacks initiated from your rear or flank.  Because these moves stem from the unknown (areas which you can’t see), the terms DARK or DARKNESS are used.

DESTRUCTION – (No references)
Generally refers to attacks originating from the left side.

SELF DEFENSE – (Ed Parker’s Encyclopedia of Kenpo, pg. 108)
The ability to protect one’s self, relative, friend, or property.

Never discard knowledge that is not applicable to you, but store it.  (The Zen of Kenpo, pg 126)

In the SKK Dojo –
Well, the children class is getting some very nice students.  Kudos to those students who work out and practice before class starts.  Always a pleasure to work with children who want to be there.  Excellent Job boys and girls.

Our adult class is moving along quite well.  We have an excellent group of students and it is always a pleasure to be working with you guys and gals.  For those who are teaching, keep up the good work and thank you.  Always, work on the “intent” of the technique, as well as, the attacker.  OSSS!!!
