IKKA 7th Dan

IKKA 7th Dan 

After a long and arduous journey, I have passed the requirements for 7th Dan in EPAK Kenpo Karate.

If you’ve been wondering where the updates and additional lessons have been, it’s because I was working towards the test above. I’m going to start updating the rest of the site and continue creating the lesson materials. For those waiting for the online lesson updates, continue to reach out to me for the individual lessons, and I will continue to process your testing and rank advancement as I have been.

Good Morning Kenpoists and thank you for all your patience. Going forward I will be adding at least one new text lesson per day, and hopefully one new video lesson per week. There is a ton of content I still need to transcribe, but now that the old year is over, I hope to have a lot more time to get the rest of the materials up there.

As always, if you have questions or concerns feel free to reach out to me at any time.

10/26/2016 Weekend Update

On By masterkenpodragonIn NewsLeave a comment

With the summer behind us, and the upcoming workshop season fast approaching, I just wanted to update all the students on where the site is. Most of the resources have been diverted to in person and skype teaching over the past several months, but we look to start ramping back up our effort for the rest of the material in the coming months. We will be teaching a seminar in Detroit this coming Weekend and look forward to seeing many of you in person over the next week.

Keep up the training, and remember that daily practice is better than any short cram session.
