Kicking Set 1 is the required set for orange belt in Ed Parkers American Kenpo. In our Yellow Belt Set & Form
we learned how to defend and how to defend while retreating. In Orange Belt our form reinforced what we
learned in Yellow Belt by having us perform Short Form 1 on both sides. Here in Kicking Set 1 we break, for a
bit, from the retreat and block mentality to instead move forward and strike. This entire set is advancing
forward with kicks delivered in a variety of ways. Kicking Set 1 will help develop balance and coordination as
you learn to deploy 4 kicks 13 different ways.
