Description
Kenpō (Japanese: 拳法) is the name of several arts. The word kenpō is a Japanese translation of the Chinese word " quánfǎ ". This term is often informally transliterated as " kempo ", as a result of applying Traditional Hepburn romanization, but failing to use a macron to indicate the long vowel. The word Kenpō translates thus: " Ken " meaning 'Fist' and " Po " meaning 'Method' or 'Law' as in 'Law of gravity', a correct interpretation of the word Kenpō would be 'Fist Method', the same meaning as 'Quanfa'. However, it is often misinterpreted as 'the Law of the Fist'. The generic nature of the term combined with its widespread, cross-cultural adoption in the martial arts community has led to many divergent definitions.
