The background is white for that is where everyone starts, as a white
belt, and you learn the foundation for all future knowledge. The
diamond is composed of the colors of our lower belts and represents
the fact that we have linear movements, while the circle is composed
of brown and green, and represents the higher belts and also the
cirlcular movements we also have. They come together to represent
that we are not bound by linear or circular movements and use both
freely and interchangeably. The black "K" represents the Black belts
and also our style Kenpo. It gives the Flame the power to burn. The
flame is red signifying the degrees of Black Belts, and the three
points on the flame also represent the stages of the martial arts
learning process, primitive, mechanical, and spontaneous. The flame
it self is also like Kenpo, beautiful to look at yet dangerous to
touch. Like watching a Kenpo form, but yet not wanting to be the
recipient of those techniques. All together they get along
harmoniously without discrimination and working together.
