At Camarillo Kenpo we emphasize the original Ed Parker Kenpo system. In addition, we honor Mr. Parker’s wish that we do not traditionalize his system and we strive to ‘tailor’ the art to the individual so that it remains the effective self-defense system that it is, and always has been. Camarillo Kenpo Karate is a United Kenpo Systems school. Bryan Hawkins, Director of United Kenpo Systems™, was privileged and honored to learn as one of the many protégés taught by Grandmaster Ed Parker. Mr. Hawkins was the former Manager and Chief Instructor of Ed Parker’s Kenpo Studio of West Los Angeles, California, and as a long-time private student of Mr. Parker’s, Mr. Hawkins is considered to be one of the foremost authorities of American Kenpo in the world today. Ultimately, at Camarillo Kenpo Karate we strive to train our students to be well rounded martial artists, who will live the lives of true Black Belts in mind, body and spirit.
