Sifu Briones
Sifu Briones studied and continues to study what we like to call "Old School Kajukenbo", where real punches are thrown, where if you do not block the punch or attack you will be hurt. Self defense techniques were practiced on everything from hard dirt, cement, grass and anywhere there was enough room to perform the technique. Ground work was heavily emphasized. The thought being that once and attacker was on the ground that he should not be given the chance to stand and attack again. This after all, would allow the Kajukenbo practitioner to walk away alive, alone or with family intact. Therefore all self defense techniques, attackers bare handed or using weapons, are practiced hard and heavy. With three objective in mind....1. Body Contact...2. Take down....3. Ground Work! |

Sifu Briones first began studying Kajukenbo in 1987 with Sigung Tony Kattengell with five other students in Sigung Kattengell’s garage. Soon the class became too big and moved to the back yard, next to Lester Sheilds, a nearby school and finally to Sigung’s first DoJo. We were all so proud that first day of training in our very own DoJo.
