Kajukenbo (Emperado Method) is a mixture of several martial art styles for the best in self defense. The martial art combines techniques from Karate, Kenpo, Judo, Jiu-JitSu, and Kung Fu or Chinese boxing. It was founded in 1947 in Oahu, Hawaii, at the Palama Settlement. The founders were Sijo ("founder") Adriano Emperado, Peter Young Yil Choo, Joe Holck, Frank Ordonez, and George Chang who called themselves the Black Belt Society.
Kajukenbo is also a sort of acronym:
"ka" ("long life"), "ju" ("happiness"), "ken" ("fist"), "bo" ("style") or "ka" ("karate"), "ju" ("judo"/"jujutsu"), "ken" ("kenpo"), "bo" (Boxing and/or Chinese Boxing Kung Fu)
"Through this fist style, one gains long life and happiness."
Kajukenbo uses hard, fast strikes to vital points throughout the body, takedowns involving high impact throws and many joint and limb destruction techniques--usually as follow-ups to take-downs. Thus making this style of self defense the best in protecting yourself and your Family.
