“The International Kenpo Karate Association originated in 1956 as the Kenpo Karate Association of America. It was registered with the state of California for the purposes of governing Kenpo in the continental U.S. The K.K.A.A. was changed to the I.K.K.A. in 1960 when association members began migrating to other countries around the world.” https://epsikka.com/
