The most important clarification to make first is that distant learning is not a distant ranking program. Five Animal Kenpo instructional DVDs and other resource materials make it possible for a student who has actual "hands on" Kenpo experience to learn additional concepts and techniques. Until I figure out a way to project my three dimensional image through a computer to make hands on corrections I do not think it likely I can truly teach the system of Five Animal Kenpo to somebody who does not have a base of some interactive knowledge of a Kenpo style first.
Furthermore, anyone who wishes to achieve ranking in Five Animal Kenpo will have to contact me personally to arrange a schedule of combining distant learning tools with actual physical appearances to my Dojo in Chattanooga, Tennessee.
Learning from a distance -- whether it be just a few new ideas or an interesting new form, is a fabulous idea. I am committed to adding more resources to support the cause of continued education and distant learning of Five Animal Kenpo. I am not, however, trying to create a "Distant Ranking for the masses" program
