Kenpo Continuum

Kenpo Continuum

I wanted to take the time to endorse the book "Kenpo Continuum: The Continuing Historical Studies of the Kenpo Community in America and Throughout the World". I am honored to be one of many Kenpo Karate black belts featured in that book, and Amy Long should be proud of her dedication and perseverance in putting this book together. The book contains biographies of such Kenpo Karate notables as Jason Arnold, Steve Arsenault, Ron Chapel, Brian Duffy, Tony Dunne, Rich Hale, Gil Hibben, Ingmar Johansson, Walter Justice, Tom Kelly, Patrick Kennedy, Mike Lambert, Kevin Mills, Joe Palanzo, Ted Sumner, and many others. In addition, Ed Parker Jr. wrote the "Forward" and did the art work, which looks simply awesome. The book has also received endorsements from such Kenpo greats as Lee Wedlake, Dennis Conatser, Stephen Labounty, and Bob White.

The book is essentially a follow-up to "The Journey", and includes black belts from many different lineages. To order the book, you can visit Amy Long’s website at:
