The BKKU

Our Headquarters are based in Exeter, Devon with Studios around the country, including London. We also have a Studio in Japan! We cater for adults and junior students from all walks of life and pride ourselves on ensuring that our students receive the best possible instruction necessary to achieve the standard of Kenpo upon which the BKKU name has been built. Read more about the BKKU here.

Head Instructor of the BKKU

Associate Master of the Arts - Kevin J Mills - works hard to continually expand his already extensive knowledge of the art, which he passes down to our Instructors for the ultimate benefit of our students. All of our Instructors are professional, friendly and approachable and this is reflected in our students who become part of our "Kenpo family" which extends around the world.

Kenpo for Children

The BKKU has specially developed Junior Programs for the next generation of Kenpo in the UK! Your children will learn life skills and self defence at the same time, in a safe, fun and family-oriented environment. Read more about our Junior Classes here.

The Birth of American Kenpo

SGM Edmund K Parker was born in Honolulu. He grew up in the rugged environment of the Honolulu backstreet, where he developed a reputation as a fierce and fearless “blalah” (brawler). He studied Kenpo, one of the original Chinese styles of Kung Fu or Karate, under Professor William K S Chow and soon became the Professor’s protégé. This became a foundation upon which he would later build one of the most creative and innovative styles in the world.

The Legacy Continues......

Edmund Kealoha Parker, Jr, son of the late SGM E K Parker, continues his father's legacy as the Ambassador for Kenpo.
