What is Kenpo Karate?

Kempo is a term used to refer to a wide variety of martial arts, and is sometimes used as a blanket term for martial arts in general, especially in East Asia. Kempo is a Japanese translation of the Chinese word "quánfa" (or ch'üan2 fa3), meaning "fist principles", "way of the fist", or "law of the fist form".

In the West, Kempo is mostly known as a mixed style that combines a heritage in Chinese martial arts, especially Shaolin, with karate (and sometimes called "Kenpo Karate"), often mixed with elements of other Japanese arts like jujutsu and aikijujutsu.

In Japan, Kempo can refer to a large number of different systems of martial arts, mostly stemming from families in the feudal period—the term Kempo being used as an abbreviation, since the names are long.
