Default kara ho kenpo

I did a research on it and found that it was developed in Hawaii by Prof. William Chow who study under Mitose(the man responsible for kenpo). Anyway, for what I found, Chow was a real animal in fighting his nickname was "Thunderbolt" and many famous teachers train under him(Nick Cerio, Ed Parker and Adriano Emperado). Most of the information was mostly history, I was hoping to get more insights on the techniques. Does anyone here trains in this style or has seen this style? Any information woul be usefull.

Technique-wise, I don't know a whole lot mate. You're spot on with the history and, as you say, it's descended from Mitose's teachings. As a result, from what I've seen, it looks a lot like the other American schools of kenpo with very short, direct, quickfire attacks. I'd say it's pretty effective as it seems to concentrate on CQB hand attacks and low-line kicks. Are you thinking of taking it up?
