Can someone tell me what this is supposed to be?

I wonder if he's auditioning for West Side story, he'd make a killer Jet! or maybe a Shark....

It's probably the form he had to make up for his black belt test....Kempo schools do that sort of stuff.

Of course you know they say the same things about KF Forms. Especially styles like Bagua or Liu He Ba FA. The ignorant only see a bunch of arm waving.

To agree here with Krissy. I think the most bothersome thing that I have seen in most karate kata (most not all) is the idea they have of power generation.
Its like the more muscle flexing and noise making they do the more powerfull the technique must be.

Hmmmm, Everyone stand by for a new thread.

its hard to pass judgement on something ive never seen before,if he is happy then surely that is all that matters

I especially like the looking down thingy everytime he strikes. maybe thats part of their secret technique.

Well in most striking systems that is how knock out power is generated Wingnut...

But if you want to laugh and say it's wrong feel free, I'm not the one who is gonna get hurt by being wrong

This is the internet though, passing judgement and mercilessly mocking unfamiliar martial arts is what we do!

(Just kidding ... you're absolutely right -- and welcome BTW)

“	Originally Posted By: Inferus No Sammy, certainly not. Hands and feet in most methods of power generation I know of should be opposed? (Ie if you are throwing a right fist forward, your right foot should be back)	”

Not so. Many styles/branches work the body in tandem
like a "Pendulum" the left side attacks, right side drives/provides the power

Some have combination of this, it all depends.

What that Kempo form lacked (from my CMA perepective) was whole body power. There was a lot of upper body strength with hip movement, (that's power...but not the whole body getting behind the movement/application. There is power then there is power!
