This set is not normally taught in the American Kenpo
Karate curriculum. It was however, the set taught to advanced students where
American Kenpoists normally now learn Long Form 4. It is still taught in the
Tracy Kenpo system, and does have some merit to learning. On the flip side, I
have never seen a good description of this set and know why; it is difficult to
describe in mere words. I have tried here with the help from the forum visitor
by the name of Lamont. If anyone has any suggestions, email the
webmaster.
