Hello All,
I found your Forum, by doing some web searches for Kajukenbo related searches.
My martial arts background is very limited. In the '70's I used to spar with amateur boxers. For about six months, in '80 I trained and sparred with some pro and amateur PKA fighters, and fought a couple of one round exhibition bouts at a Denver Police boxing smoker, billed as "Boxer vs. Kickboxer". I was the boxer. I really had no desire to be a competitive fighter, I just found that this type of training was what I was looking for, in terms of self defense training.
In '83 I trained under a student of Al Dacascos, in Wun Hop Kuen Do, in Denver. I only reached the yellow belt/sash level before the school closed.
Since then, I've occasionally trained informally with martial artists from other styles, and am finding myself interested once again, in the Kajukenbo family of arts.
I'll have a lot more questions than comments, and look forward to being part of your community.
