Know Your Art!
The style of martial arts we train is called “Shaolin Kempo Karate”. It is a compilation of multiple styles, mainly Shaolin Temple Boxing, Kempo, and several different styles of Karate. However, it also includes knowledge and skills from Kung Fu, Ju Jitsu, Western Boxing, and the secret art of White Tiger Chi’na. Master Fred Villari pulled them all together into the comprehensive system we train today, utilizing the four main fighting styles: striking, kicking, grappling, and felling.
