The American Kenpo Karate International Association
welcomes all martial artists interested in expanding
their education and perpetuating their skills into the
future. Our purpose in the AKKI is to preserve Mr. Ed
Parker's art of American Kenpo, as well as continue
to create, innovate and perpetuate the ever changing,
fascinating and magical art of Kenpo.
Our American Kenpo Karate International Association
has developed a reputation for maintaining a very high
level of proficiency in the art, coupled with sound
ethics. We are a synergistic group striving to be humble,
honorable, responsible and respectful. We also strive
to reach the highest level of perfection, developing
our physical, mental, emotional and spiritual thoughts
and actions.
Our trained, professional Instructors possess extraordinary
skill, talent, knowledge and wisdom. Their leadership
qualities provide a positive atmosphere, which is coupled
with innovative and progressive training ideas designed
for those students who would like to learn Kenpo the
way Mr. Parker intended it to be. Only this way can
we all truly perpetuate the art of Kenpo into the future.
Our instructors, students, and new members of the AKKI
are encouraged to seek continuous improvement, and constant
innovation. As mentioned before, we must continue to
break traditional ways of thinking, realizing that a
Kenpo practitioner may make small improvements by developing
new skills. Quantum leaps and revolutionary advances
in the martial arts require new road maps and new paradigms.
This offers distinctively new ways of thinking about
old problems.
All of us in the AKKI have worked hard to develop and
provide for our members a distinctively unique method
of sharing and teaching the updated techniques, sets
and forms. This creative, innovative, progressive and
logical approach expedites the students' comprehension
by internalizing his mind and motion, so they can perform
at maximum action potential. Therefore, the student
can achieve their goals (both short and long-term) in
a very efficient, productive and professional manner.
This will allow them the opportunity to achieve the
rank of Black Belt in 2 1/2 - 3 years, and will ensure
the quality performance, understanding and knowledge
necessary to gain self-mastery of the individual, as
well as success in the art of Kenpo.
The AKKI has gained its reputation by building on quality
and logic; these main building blocks are standard Universal
requirements for establishing a firm foundation. We
have a solid structure and a very stable association
growing at a phenomenal rate.
The AKKI has achieved worldwide credibility, recognition,
and exposure. We have accomplished this by developing
and producing thousands of extremely creative and proficient
Kenpo practitioners, as well as hundreds of high-ranking
black belts throughout the world.
When becoming a member of the American Kenpo Karate
International Association, one will attain prestigious
and unparalleled status in an organization with an unquestionable
professional standard of excellence, and quality. We
are inferior to none, equal to any, superior to many.
