Satement of Qualifications – Buyer Beware..
It has come to recent light that there is a joke circulating in relation to Sensei Peter Kelly claiming that he is a 7th degree black belt in American Kenpo, to set the record straight, Sensei Kelly refutes all Claims and states for the records that he holds the rank of 3rd Deg Black Belt in American Kenpo which he obtained in 2007. Personal Self Defence and Mr Peter Kelly are no way associated with the IKKA Kenpo, its organization or website and refute all claims of any rank that they have stated or published, the Associated organization has been contacted and been asked to remove all information from their web page.
