The Kenpo Karate Compendium: The Forms and Sets of American Kenpo

A significant amount of valuable information within the pages of this book.

My instructor recommended this book to help me with my sets and forms. Excellent detail, well written and a great guide to understanding the various forms.

The book is full of interesting and valuable information in regards to kenpo. Easy to follow and since I am more of a visual learner the pictures come in handy. Thx!

Anyone that truly and passionately pursues Kenpo Karate should have this book as a resource. Only a simpleton, with more testosterone than brain cells could regard this book negatively as some have already. Opinions are welcome but there is no place for disrespect. Master Wedlake is one of the original student of SGM Ed Parker Sr. and has gone to great measures to bring to light concepts that will enhance and inform anyone dedicated to this art.

A solid description of the forms of American Kenpo. Could have used more photos and diagrams. The symbols used in what does exist are a bit esoteric. Despite the above criticisms, it is definitely worth the purchase and close study, as it will yield information and will improve your performance of the highly specialized forms of this modern martial art.

I'm learning from an International Kenpo Champion in San Jose Ca. and really enjoying the training. This book has brought a depth to the "Peace and Harmony" of Kenpo. I am enjoying every page.

Well written and layed out.

like this book tightly done i am a huge fan of the old school kempo jutsu not really the okinawain styles but books lke these show where and how they could touch and how it all really did come from central asia...having a shodan in a tracy offshoot its good to see. and a instructor in another style of kenpo ju jutsu cool to compare and have ...always wondered if you added judo back too this what would happen if it could.

Importante lectura para cualquiera que practique KENPO.

Unfortunately this book has no Photos. With photos, my avaluation will be five stars. No doubt about it. Well written anyway.

A must have for any Kenpo student or martial artist. Master Wedlake has produced another excellent book.

very good

Great book, a must have book for every kenpo practitioner interested in the why of the forms of the system.
