Liddel and Kajukenbo

Chuck was on Opie & Anthony this mornng. When asked what arts he trained in, he said Hawaiian Kenpo and Kajukenbo.

Never heard the Kaj part before. I checked around the web and it seems to be true.

How cool is it that the UFC MMA champ is a student of the first and American mixed martial art of Kajukenbo. An art that is over 50 years old.

Mark Dacascos' father was one of the early practitioners.

Al Dacascos = Wun Hop Kuen Do

thats pretty cool

"Currently, there are a few distinct, "recognized" branches of Kajukenbo: Kenpo ("Emperado Method" or "Traditional Hard Style"), Tum Pai, Chu'an Fa, Wun Hop Kuen Do, and Gaylord Method."

I hear Richard Simmons practices the Gaylord method.
