Ed Parker on KenpoTV
I have been uploading seminars segments of Mr. Parker teaching in Chicago. So far there are several in which he answers questions from the participants, addressing “slaps” and the subconscious mind, for example. In some to come soon, he talks about “jet lag” and defining motion as he expands on his analogy to language. The tapes are old but the sound quality is good.
My KenpoTV site has over 1,000 instructional videos on basics, forms, techniques, freestyle, drills and how to teach. A trial subscription is $1 for a week (we had to do that to lock out the Chinese hackers we had on the old site). kenpotv.com

One copy of Ed Parker’s Infinite Insights into Kenpo, Vol 1. $15

Parting the Clouds, The Science of the Martial Arts by Grenville Harrop. I saw a copy of this while at Marc Sigle’s home in Germany (the man has everything). An engineer has written a book on the physics of how we hit with power- but it’s understandable. I skimmed most of it but I think it’s probably worth having in your library. http://www.amazon.com/Parting-Clouds-Fighters-Punching-Taekwondo/dp/0983704104/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1367354006&sr=8-1&keywords=parting+the+clouds+-+the+science+of+the+martial+arts+a+fighter%27s+guide
