Another Kenpo Karate Demonstration

This past weekend, two of my black belts (Matt Trejo and John McDonald) and I put on a 30-minute Kenpo Karate demonstration at the Bellamere Winery & Event Centre. The demonstration was received very well, as we showed the various aspects of Kenpo Karate training. Matt Trejo performed Short Form 1-3, Long Form 1, Long Form 6 and Stance Set 2, while John McDonald performed Short Form 1, Kicking Set 2, Long Form 2, Long Form 3, Finger Set 2, and Coordination Set 1. I performed a Kung Fu Saber form called Orr Fai Do Fa, and performed the 20 self-defense techniques on Matt, first slowly and then at street speed. We had a lot of questions from the audience after the demonstration as they were very intrigued by the performance. To top it all off, we all got to hang out, have some great food.
