Welcome back, Moe Lama. Welcome back!!! The only reason why I say welcome back is a little break was taken off...very well deserved! We'll see you soon! If you want to learn the real Kenpo Karate and the old school not watered down stuff? I highly suggest that you go check out Lama Kenpo Karate on Cortland if you live in the city or not. If it's for yourself,for your kid/kids, or both? Professor Mauricio Lama has been in it since the late 70's early 80s and still teaches the old school way... he's back!!!! All jokes aside. I wouldn't trust anyone else to train my kid outside of Professor Mauricio Lama he's the real deal! Coming from a martial artist from the past and Kenpo Karate wasn't the style that I learned.🙏🏿👊🏿
