Welcome to Arnott Kenpo Karate
Kenpo is tailored to the individual. As Ed Parker always said, "We make the suit to fit you. As a consequence, we can all find our own little niche in the art. Women don't have to be really strong to succeed in kenpo, and men don't need great flexibility. The art is tailored to you."
Kenpo is a techniques based Martial Art built around “what-if” scenarios. It's a scaleable self defense system that intensifies as the situation escalates - so the moves, which range from simple to complex, can be used to peacefully disrupt a situation that's gotten out of hand to brutally and quickly ending an assault. American Kenpo Karate utilizes all of our natural weapons: the hands, kicks, knees, and elbows – making it one of the most effective martial arts because it uses the entire body as a potential weapon to keep you safe. You may never face the real-world situations that American Kenpo Karate self-defense classes teach, but if you do, you'll be glad you know how to handle it.

A martial arts student has choices. If attacked, the student has trained reactions that override the fear. That training becomes imbedded in your muscles; your body moves to defend without thinking. Simply being trained, simply working at your new discipline makes it less likely you will ever have to use your new skills. You will see yourself differently and other people see you differently. .

You become able to defend yourself against stronger opponents as you learn how to use simple principles with every move. You learn to keep yourself safe by using the attack against the attacker.

Ours is a belt system. Anyone willing to dedicate themselves to the work can earn their own Black Belt. Everyone’s path is different. Each path will be deeply challenging, and deeply rewarding. Patient and challenging instructors provide individualized instruction for students of all ages.

Central to our Studio is respect, respect for yourself and for each other. We work together developing our power and our control and that work makes us a community.

Whatever your background, you can succeed in Kenpo Karate. You control the pace of your learning and the level of contact.
