The White Tiger Kenpo System was founded by Sr. Grand Master Tom Saviano in 1984. The White Tiger fighting system combines Southern Chinese, Northern Chinese, Japanese and Okinawan fighting arts. Rather than the usual focus put on direct strikes, the system is composed of circular blocks, linear and circular strikes, grabbing, throwing, sweeping and joint locking techniques.
Although many types of kicks are used, the system is designed to use knee and foot strikes below the waist, with hand and elbow strikes above the waist. "Kenpo" is best described as a hand dominated system. It is neither hard nor soft, but a well-balanced system of both. Kenpo is fluid with continuous and rapid motion: graceful yet extremely devastating.
