Inter-Form Analysis

American Kenpo forms are designed such that each form builds upon, derives from, and relates to all previous forms in the system, going all the way back to Short Form One; which can be thought of as the foundation form. One of the best ways to analyze and discover information contained within a form is to go through each part of the form, uncovering and detailing the information as it progresses, while also relying upon information from previous forms as a baseline and aid to the current analysis.

 

The information presented in this section is intended to expose such information, and will limit its scope to this form's relationship to other, lower forms in the system.

 

And, like the intra-form analysis section, this section will purposely omit specific information that might be considered a detraction and/or distraction from this section's overall purpose. Although this information is excluded from here, one should not draw the conclusion that this information is not important nor should not be included in one's own analysis. To reiterate previously written sentiments, this act was deliberately done in an attempt to make the work more accessible to the reader and shorten the information to a more manageable length.

 


 

Note: Any term that one sees and is not familiar with throughout the entirety of this analysis section may usually be referenced in "The Encyclopedia of Kenpo".
