Hello Grasshopper, That is one really interesting list! I notice that is full of the former shining stars of SKS / TKF. Well, all I can say is: Mo Power to Us All! :lol: Regards, MrE2Me2

hey i have a couple more on the island for you Kung fu Canada founded by Ed O'brian (first started in montreal then moved to victoria and opened second branch) Kung fu Academy founded by student of Ed O'brian Plus I think he may have other students that have opened up schools here but not sure of names. Also I was surprised the other day at a tournament here in victoria recently (the world martial arts games) to see someone competing using kempo I II & III. He did not do so well (he needed some work on his form) but it was neat to see. I believe he was from somewhere in Sask.

Hey Swollenknuck, That list s from the web site and they all have their own websites. If any of the ones you mention have web links send me the info and I will add them to the list... The list... the list is life... :wink:

hey Grasshopper, hope you are doing well, here are the links for those schools http://www.kung-fucanada.ca that one is for Ed O'brians school in victoria http://www.linnk.com/kungfu/index.html that one is for kung fu canada in montreal http://www.kungfuacademy.net/ that one is for kung fu academy which is one of Ed O'brians students bye for now Swollenknuck

Hey swollenknuckle Also I was surprised the other day at a tournament here in victoria recently (the world martial arts games) to see someone competing using kempo I II & III. There are actually a number of competitors that use the kempo forms for tournamnets here in Alberta. There is actually even a version of kempo I that has kicks in it. I beleive this particular was modified By Master Higgs to make it more flashier for tournament use. The kempo forms have been assimilated by a lot of different Alberta Martial arts clubs. Sifu Shawn

I was under the impression when I trained that the Kung Fu I learned from Brian Leishman came directly from Shaolin Kung Fu, not a mixture of a Japanese Chinese hybrid. Since I had left that School, in the eighties I had learned Hung Gar, White Crane, Shaolin Black Tiger style and other styles of more authenic Kung Fu. It seems that Hung Gar can trace its lineage back to a Shaolin Monk and the history seems well documented. Not that the martial arts at Energy lake were not good, they were, but I want to learn traditional Kung Fu, not a Kempo hybrid. I remember that Brian Leishamn would tell me that the kung Fu that I learned was like the movie Kung Fu with David Caridine. But in the movie, there was no Kenpo involed, it was suppose to be authentic Chinese Kung Fu. Anyway, I was a bit troubled when I found out the karate influence and I remeber we use to wear karate uniforms, until we got in the Kung Fu club. Bruce

Thanks swollenknuck.

Someone posted it on a different thread on this forum.. I think they were an ex-student/teacher? under B. Leishman...

To all, I found this guy early this morning. Dr. John M. La Tourrette, “The Speed Man” “Clocked at an average of more than 16 hits per second by Black Belt Magazine” http://www.thespeedman.com/ So… so what, you ask??? Take a look here, at his credentials. http://www.thespeedman.com/text/credentials.htm "1973-74 Wai Nai Pai (Mo Kempo) Kung-Fu at Boise State University" Has anyone else ever heard of this? Regards, MrE2Me2

To all, From here I get that Wai and Nai mean external and internal. http://www.geocities.com/Tokyo/1321/kungfu.html And Pai means style, does it not? Therefore, would a rough interpretation of “Wai Nai Pai “be, a hard soft style? This is the first I have heard of this guy in relation to Mo Kempo. Regards, MrE2Me2

MrE2Me2, Therefore, would a rough interpretation of “Wai Nai Pai “be, a hard soft style? There was a guy on one of the old TKF forums , I believe his name was ursa major, anyways I remember him sending me an email one time and he said when he had been training the moo method it was reffered to as Moo Pai. Reading this thread unlocked that memory cell I guess. sifu shawn

Hello Sifu Shawn You posted, “Reading this thread unlocked that memory cell I guess.” Always kinda neat when that happens! Regards, MrE2Me2

MrE2Me2, Always kinda neat when that happens yes that it is. Did you ever hear of kempo being refered to as Moo Pai?? sifu shawn
