Why YourKenpo.com

Yourkenpo.com is a setting where an individual's knowledge and ability is the only measure of excellence. I saw a need for a Kenpo website devoid of any organizational agenda. Yourkenpo.com is that website. My name is Dennis Lawson. If you'd like more information about me, please see our bio page. This website offers articles and information about Kenpo and other martial arts as:

  1. personal discipline
  2. business
  3. art
  4. history, psychology, anthropology, etc...
  5. and as a part of our global 21st century society

My idea is to move the reader toward a perspective where accurate information is more important than organizational affiliation. This website is a place where acquiring wisdom is not dependent on rank or political connections.

Ultimately, the quality and skill level of YOUR art depends on you!
