A Revolutionary Breakthrough in the Martial Arts
Known as a world champion fastdraw artist and student
of Ed Parker, Paul Mills bridged the gap between his
Kenpo and fastdraw skills by looking at the motion
and mindset that helped him tie and break several world
shooting records.
In fastdraw speed shooting, motion is measured in
milliseconds. Body mechanics are internalized on the
super micro-precision level where one learns to move
without conscious thought. In parallel, this same level
of precision is required in AKKI Kenpo for maximum action
potential.
Mills began to make
connections between the motion that tied these two
skill sets together
and in doing
so uncovered the internalization patterns. These
patterns are critical to facilitating proper muscle
memory that
leads to economy of motion.
Using these ideas as the central theme, everything
in AKKI kenpo was completely revamped and designed around
them; starting from yellow belt on up. Every part of
the system utilizes these simple yet highly practical
patterns of motion.
The internalization patterns not only accelerate your
learning but also quicken your reflexes and more than
double your
hand
speed. This streamlines the process such that skills
that used to take years to master now can be internalized
in half the time.
Many traditional martial artists believe it takes several
years for a student to become competent on the street.
That is because they don't use these patterns to hardwire
their students nervous system. While parts of their
system utilize some of the patterns, they don't totally
revolve around them making the process longer to become
proficient.
Based on the American Kenpo system taught by Senior
Grandmaster Edmund K. Parker, AKKI Kenpo leverages the
best of Parker's system with many new principles, concepts
and updated techniques, forms, sets as well as two weapons
systems that were previously un-addressed.
AKKI Kenpo offers you:
- Updated techniques that have been consolidated
or created to facilitate quicker internalization
and
quicker reaction times.
- Offensive techniques
have been added to the system, which are separate
from our freestyle techniques.
They bridge the gap between the freestyle moves and
self
defense techniques.
- Four ranges of combat are covered
within our belt curriculum including kicking, punching,
close quarter
trapping, and grappling (ground and standing).
- Self-defense techniques are structured based on
speed, surprise, and simplicity as well as other
principles
of motion.
- Our curriculum includes progressive two-man
interactive training drills, techniques, forms,
sets and freestyle.
Internalization occurs faster with hands on application.
So, unlike more traditional approach taken in American
Kenpo, virtually everything is done with two people
interacting with each other.
- AKKI Kenpo – A
mixed martial art. While many Kenpo systems are simply
adding elements of other arts
to make their systems "more complete",
AKKI Kenpo offers empty hand, ground, stick, and
club fighting
based on the American Kenpo system.
- There are different
levels to each form - standard and black belt versions.
This is so that as skill
and proficiency increases; there are more advanced
and
sophisticated ideas of self-defense to learn, practice,
and explore.
These innovative and critical updates have made the
AKKI system of American Kenpo a powerful and modern
day self-defense program to learn and study. |
