KENPO KARATE

I started my training in the martial arts in the year 1956, in Pasadena California at Ed's first school. It was a small space rented in another building. Later we moved to a bigger building that was his primary school until he built his own studio. I trained in the group classes there and privately with Ed, receiving my first, second, and third degree black belts from Mr. Parker. After receiving my first black belt, I opened a Kenpo school in Pomona California, and within the year, my school became an Ed Parker franchise school.
