Welcome to the official Kenpukan website! Our goal is to teach people how to avoid and short circuit violence before it begins. However, if all else fails, Ryukyu Kenpo provides highly effective strategies and skills for surviving violent encounters, at whatever level. Ryukyu Kenpo allows people to actually experience violence in a safe and supportive environment, to see it, study it, and understand it. Only by understanding violence can we prevent it from occurring.

Here at the Kenpukan we train in "Ryukyu Kenpo" which consists of REAL self-defense, full contact sparring and traditional kata and weapon forms originating in Okinawa in the Ryukyu islands. We are a branch of the "Academy of Ryukyu Kenpo" which is the ONLY organization in Israel that teaches effective, uncompromising self defense techniques taught by Certified Licensed instructors along with challenging physical exercises that enhances coordination, strength, balance, agility, flexibility and stamina. Whether you are looking to learn self defense, lose weight, gain more self confidence or just have fun Ryukyu kenpo is for you!

Ryukyu Kenpo is a vast and complicated subject involving striking with both arms and legs, parries, entrapments, immobilizations, balance interrupts, joint locks and dislocations, anatomical physiological point structures, analytical research, Kata, weapons (of every kind), two man drills, contact sparring and more. Also, while working with others our students improve in character development, mental development, and build a deep and abiding respect for man and our world. These are skills, talents and abilities that you will use in a myriad of ways every day of your life. What's more, as they are basic “people skills”, using them will improve your quality of life.
