Willis Kempo Kung-Fu School is a growing KAJUKENBO school with a home-style atmosphere.

 KAJUKENBO is the official name of a style that has its roots in Hawaii. It is a true American martial art that originated on the tough streets of the Palama district on the island of Oahu in 1947. Five martial artists, each a master in a different style, worked together to create and develop the "ULTIMATE SELF DEFENSE SYSTEM." They were referred to then and now as the "Black Belt Society."

Here at Willis Kempo Kung- Fu School, we feel this is the ultimate karate for the future. It's a complete art that is 50% feet and 50% hands. It's a idealistic self defense system. We teach "Gaylord's Method" of KAJUKENBO. Specialized classes are offered for men, women and children and private lessons are available. For a reasonable fee you can enroll in a Martial Art lesson program designed to provide physical fitness that will improve your stamina, balance, coordination and strength. You will also learn practical, safe self-defense that has the additional advantage of developing your self-confidence in everyday life.

As time went on the art matured, and in the early 1960's KAJUKENBO came to the mainland. The five gentlemen who are recognized as bringing the art to the mainland are Tony Ramos, Aleju Reyes, Joe Halbuna, Al Dacascos, and Charles Gaylord.
