A Great Place to Learn Kenpo - Kenpo Orphans Welcome!

Sacramento Kenpo Karate is a very warm and friendly school teaching the art of self-defense. It's a great place for women to feel safe and for men to smack the heck out of each other, if that's what they want. The men can feel safe too. :)

Kenpo Terminology 101

Circular Movements - Moves that predominantly loop or follow a curve. Such moves can be used defensively or offensively.


Kiai - A loud noise cause by the rapid expulsion of air from the diaphragm of the body. This expulsion of air creates stability, increases force, fortifies the body and can have a psychological effect upon your opponent. Kiai originally meant "breathing exercise".

Hello all!

I apologize for the lateness for this months posting.

Well, our children' class is just amazing. Tyler '1' is very diligent and very solid in his work. Alex is the big brother and the strength both spiritually and physically in class. James is great with his happy spirit and continued growth in the arts. Matthew has boundless energy and a very positive attitude that is always present. Nehemiah continues to strive and grow with his knowledge of Kenpo. Our newest member, Tyler '2', is very enthusiastic and another fast learner. Kiaaaii!!! Kudos to our children's class. Keep up the excellent work, guys!

Sad to say, our adult class has diminished as of late.  Thanks to Eugene, Ron, Jeff, and Bryan for the consistent attendance.  We continue to modify, upgrade, and adapt basic principles thanks to Dr. Dave Crouch. SKK technique application is continuously gaining in power, speed, and efficiency.
