Details:	At Abington Martial Arts Academy the martial art that is studied is the martial art of Kenpo Karate. Kenpo karate is a martial art that came to America through Hawaii from James Mitose in 1936. One of the students of James Mitose was a Black Belt named William Chow. William Chow changed the name from kempo to kenpo and is perhaps the person most responsible for promoting Kenpo karate or kempo karate in the United States. Grand master Edmund Parker brought kenpo karate to the mainland in 1954. Kenpo Karate is a system of martial arts, characterized by the use of quick moves in rapid-fire succession intended to overwhelm an opponent. It is a self- defense system, and is derived from traditional Southern Chinese kung fu and other martial arts found in the cultural melting pot of Hawaii. There are many benefits to studying Kenpo Karate. These benefits are not just experienced by kids, but also by adults. There is no better fitness benefit than getting a physical workout while also learning how defend yourself and others that need your help.
