There are a large amount and more out every day.
A common conversation is the Gi's worm by Kempo students. All students beginning in Kempo wear the traditional white gi. But, as they progress, they are allowed to wear a Black Gi as a sign of rank. It is common, for many high-ranks to wear either Black or White Gi and at Black Belt levels to combine the two such as white top and black pants. I can find no historical sense in the use of the Gis, although I know that Mitose often wore a Black Gi and his students wore White.
If you live in North American, the odds are good that there will be a Kempo school in your vicinity. There are about 130 Villari Martial Arts Centers teaching Shaolin Kempo, as well as hundreds of schools teaching various forms of American Kenpo. As far as Europe is concerned, the scope is a bit smaller, but still numerous. In Toronto, Canada where Bryan lives, he knows of 7 or 8 Kempo schools of various types. In the Worcester, MA area, there are at least four Kempo organizations (Villari's Martial Arts Centers, Masters Self-Defense Centers, Cerio Kenpo, American Kenpo), with at least 10 schools teaching at least three Kempo styles (Villari's Shaolin Kempo, Cerio Kenpo, Parker's American Kenpo).
Here is a list of some of the sites linked to by this document. All are excellent sources for further study in to Kenpo.
