Kajunkenbo is a hard hitting, no nonsense, style of self defense which was created on the island of O'ahu at the same time what we know today as Kenpo Karate was being created.
Kajukenbo is often referred to as the first "mixed martial art" because it is a blending of karate, judo, kenpo, and boxing. Hence the name Ka Ju Ken Bo.
Many times it is called "Kenpo's cousin" although by seeing the hard hitting moves in the above video I might actually call it "Kenpo's big brother" because I wonder how many kenpo practitioners could hold their own up against a kajukenbo practitioner.
