What rough neighborhood do the thugs and predators not use weapons like knives, ice picks, bricks, pipes, bats, machetes and pistols to allow fist fighting to be a valid defense against predators in a violent neighborhood? All the rough places I've lived the bad guys use weapons and numbers to assault their targets. . .kajukembo nor any other unarmed fighting art will save you under such circumstances.
@@SoldierDrew I'm not gonna give my location or where I lived to protect my anonymity, but it was a smaller city/town not like New York, Detroit, Chicago or Oakland, but it's mostly safe - save for a few smart mouth idiots, wannabe gangsters, druggies etc, but sometimes they'd try to use a pocket knife or a stick but that's it. Most of the time you can just kick their teeth in and they'll leave you alone. Sometimes it's good to have a friend who also trains & has your back. Yeah I have a piece but I don't need it. But the old saying goes it's better to have one & not need it than to need one and not have it. Kajukenbo training does wonders and works for me. I'm confident in my ability, I can definitely throw hands if I have to. I'm not afraid to send a dude to the hospital.
I have a black belt in Kajukenbo and I can confirm it is a hard journey to get to this point. I've only had to use it once in my whole life but it works very well. It's nice to be able to transfer from striking to throws, takedowns, and/or grappling if needed. Not to even mention the techniques, which are devastating. They're multiple steps but usually the first one or two steps would be a killing or incapacitating blow to the opponent.
@@sirethanthegreat4069 ...the very first UFC around 92, which I watched that year w/my dad, proved these deadly striking arts weren't so deadly. We witnessed 5th dan karateka and hall of fame martial arts masters unable to kill nor knockout opponents w/a single blow. They often began brawling just like an untrained street fighter before being taken down by a wrestler or jiujitsu grappler. That was when a 170lb young man from brazil was taking down & choking deadly striking arts masters & a hall of fame master in an octogan cage. During WWII Imperial Japanese karateka tested their deadly striking on prisoners to test the one strike kill theory and in their officer journals they recorded their ability to maim & mutilate but failed to kill. They had to use their katana to put the wounded prisoners out of their misery. Judo however is proven lethal due to shimewaza and hadaka jime waza.
@@Edudivexo It looks cool. I'm currently a 2nd Degree Blackbelt in VSK Juijitsu, and I'll be getting my 1st Degree Blackbelt in Hapkido this year. Looking to Master both styles.
Looks cool and legit man. And I don't say that about a fighting style very often, especially with the hundreds of fighting styles / martial arts / dojos / mcdojos out there...Lol
I remember seeing this mentioned in a martial arts magazine many years ago. I thought it was a unique concept to blend all those styles together. I was wondering if there is someone that uses it in MMA? (No I'm not one of those trolls that thinks if its not used in MMA it's not good. I'm just curious)
Kajukenbo is actually often called a form of MMA itself. Although it isn't used directly, like many martial arts there are several that use elements of it. It is adapted as any other.
@@Edudivexo el kajukenbo tiene demasiados golpes ilegales, como para competir. Es una defensa personal, para que los débiles se puedan defender de gente mas grande y fuerte🙂
Wow! I´m a 6´dan in Okinawan Uechi-ryu and I have to say that Kajukenbo is impressive, fast, strong and very efective. This is a style I would absolutely train.
6th Dan Uechi Ryu. . . you've put in decades of hard work and are far more dangerous with empty hands than kajukembo would've made you due to uechi ryu hojo undo conditioning, bone density cultivation and the highly efficient uechi ryu strikes for highly vulnerable targets. Uechi Ryu is the most efficient kara te for unarmed combat defense.
@@SoldierDrew Thank you. Yes, Uechi ryu is a very effective and dangerous Okinawan Ksrate style. I went to Okinawa 4 times in my life and I trained with great masters as Shinyu Gushi sensei and others. The conditioning is so hard thst I have scars all over my hands. Bones can be so hard as rocks. I also trained in Goju for many years, but Uechi is my favorite style, and also more realistic in self defense situations. Kajukembo seems interesting, fast, but Uechi-ryu is also very fast, and the conditioning of the hands, fists, foots, and elbows make it a very dangerous style. In my journey in Okinawa I've seen amazing and unimaginable Karate situations. People in general associates Karate with the sport which has the same name, or with what they see in everyday dojo. One of my sensei used to say that what is thaught in everyday Karate dojo (any style) is only 2/3 of 50% of the first level of Karate (1' level is exoterism, 2' level is mesoterism, 3' level is esoterism). It's like an iceberg, almost all of it is under the water, we can see only a very small part. Karate is the same. Thank you!
I studied Kajukenbo for 2 years under a first and a third degree black belt. I entered the school with a second degree brown belt in Kodokan Judo. Neither of my instructors knew anything about throws. I taught them the basics.
I think its a great martial arts. But one of the dojos hated on my dojo to the point where when my childhood friend that went to the same dojo as me went to their dojo. They gave him a black belt from the get go just to spite my old dojo. That specific dojo was pretty rude. Went to challenge our dojo one point in time when they invited themselves to an in house tournament in my dojo. They bullied some of the less talented guys. But my brother and a guest student named Moon won the tournament. It was just a point contact but they hit hard as they could. Moon smashed one of the big dudes into the mirrors on our wall. Not crapping on Kojukenbo specifically cause I admire the art. Theres always gonna be some rotton eggs. Even in my old training grounds. But one of their dojos in Hawaii was a bunch of assholes. That was around 20 years ago give or take.
I am 55 years old I wanna study that I study Kung Fu but I Forgot when I was trained the street are dangerous I wanna tak the Class Not to far from where I live
There are far more difference between the two than it may first look and it does not take the entirety of the other systems, it is just taking what is needed for specific areas and it is better to have more options than less.
El karate está basado en tang so do koreano y kenpo es un estilo de karate muy fluido y rápido,la letra Ka..es más bien el pateo basado en taekwondo antiguo...creo
If this was founded in the 1940s, there was no Kenpo as we think of it in the US. Not American Kenpo. It would be Kosho-ryu, the original. It can be a beast too.
@@zapas3429 Karate came from Okinawa, and their styles are based in chinese martial arts, with some Satsuma clan Bujutsu influences, not Tang so do. I train Okinawan martial arts since 1988 and went to Okinawa 4 times to study and practice with local masters.
I don't know. From the what I can see, you have to use 5 moves, expect the other guy not to move while you do, in order to execute just one punch or one throw. Seems like a LOT of energy used.
Kajukenbo training really helped me learn how to fight and protect myself when I was living in a rough neighborhood. I'm grateful for it. 👊🥋🇺🇲
That's great to hear, and I'm glad you were able to find what was right for you.
Any particular grab arts or punch counters used during your encounters?
@@complexblackness I mostly employed kicks. But I used elbows & takedowns before.

Thank you
Glad you enjoyed it
Traditional JuJitsu then!
I never heard of this martial art i want to learn it
The main places to fin it are around Hawaii but has been growing.
Nadie me cree cuando les cuento hacíamos tiradas de Judo en suelo de concreto! Kajukenbo @ Aguadilla, PR
No surprise, when done properly judo can directly be used the same.
Cool. It reminds me of Kenpp.
It does take part of it's system from Kenpo and then adapts so no surprise.
@@Edudivexo It looks cool. I'm currently a 2nd Degree Blackbelt in VSK Juijitsu, and I'll be getting my 1st Degree Blackbelt in Hapkido this year. Looking to Master both styles.

very nice !!!!!
Thank you!

That's mean hybrid martial arts.
It is a heavy hybrid
похоже на симбиоз вин чун и джиу джитсу...
Jiu Jitsu is certainly one of those used and due to the general overlap of martial arts there will always be a few different systems you can point to.
It is never good enough as long you dont mix it with other martial arts.
Very much the same as any martial art, always needs mixing up.
@@Edudivexo so I know.
Hawai’i local boys scrap
Indeed
Nice but opponents attacking like a stupid mindless doll is not too realistic.
It is the basics and for display etc. as with any system, that of course changes the more you train and when you are adapting etc.
I don't know. From the what I can see, you have to use 5 moves, expect the other guy not to move while you do, in order to execute just one punch or one throw. Seems like a LOT of energy used.
Of course these are just clips and not all systems have the same purpose but it is an interesting system.
This is demonstrations. In a realistic situation it´s just one or two moves, done very fast.
