History
In 2005, studio co-founders and head instructors Jennifer Thomas and Bill Hayes combined their passion for the art of Kenpo with their unique talents to form Old School Kenpo Karate. Bill began his training in 1974, spending five years in Japanese Shotokan before discovering the Chinese-based Kenpo of Ed Parker. Jennifer discovered Kenpo 30 years later, quickly climbing the ranks ahead of others in the same studio and organization. Bill and Jennifer's life paths merged as they developed the distinctive training style that comes when streetwise experience is coupled with athletic acumen and precision and when lifelong wisdom is infused with fresh enthusiasm and excitement. Jennifer now owns and operates the school as a sole proprietor.
