Kempo I - Old School TKF |

Master R. Shergold demonstrating Kempo I. Any students of TKF who started after 1993 (approx), will probably not recognize this version. Master Shergold was a teacher/ master/ owner of "Temple Kung Fu Studios" from 1981 - 1992 and this was the version of Kempo I that he was taught by Grand Master Simon. Some argue that Simon changed the forms for the better, improving knowledge, revealing hidden techniques, removing superfluous movement etc. Others claim that after every new generation of owner/ masters, Olaf Simon would often change the knowledge and forms of his system for other reasons...
