For more than 35 years, Fred Villari has been a
pioneer in the martial arts. By bringing many styles together to form
an effective unity of disciplines, he revolutionized the way martial artists
thought about fighting. Over the years, he has founded more than 300 schools
internationally, bringing Asian martial arts to the western world on unprecedented
levels. He has developed many of the respected masters teaching today
in the United States and Canada, and overseen the training of more than
15 million students.
An
outstanding martial artist in his youth, Fred Villari was initiated into
the principles of Shaolin Temple boxing by his father at an early age.
After mastering the techniques his father showed him, young Villari ventured
out and worked with other martial artists of different styles.
Eventually, Villari realized there were just four ways of fighting unarmed
- punching, kicking, felling and grappling - and these four methods were
originally meant to be used together, as one. So, he brought together
the many techniques he had learned, using the systems of Shaolin, Kempo,
Karate and Jiu Jitsu as guides in the forming of a new, integrated style,
which he named SHAOLIN-KEMPO-KARATE. Unique in the world, it has become
the most prevalent non-Korean martial art in the United States.
Several years ago, the Grandmaster had a realization about how he wanted
to share his martial arts knowledge with the world, so he began the process
of creating this series of instructional materials. You can gain immense
benefits from the practice of his method. In addition to becoming able
to defend yourself, you will lose unwanted weight, gain strength and improve
your overall health. As you progress through the levels of practice, you
will also become increasingly relaxed, confident and alert.
This is an extraordinary opportunity; never before has it been so easy
to learn the martial arts. By practicing Grandmaster Villari's method,
I know you can develop the power to take control of your life and achieve
your goals for health, happiness and prosperity. Good luck on your journey.
Yours in Shaolin-Kempo-Karate,
