[John Bishop]

The WKO (World Kajukenbo Organization) video training tapes are now availiable on DVD. These professionally produced tapes cover the belt requirements of the “Original Method” of Kajukenbo. They are the only Kajukenbo videos where filming was personally supervised by Kajukenbo founder, Sijo Adriano Emperado. He appears on each tape, and supervised the filming of every technique.
Techniques are demonstrated by high ranking Kajukenbo black belts; Grandmaster Gary Forbach - 9th degree, Grandmaster Joe Davis - 9th degree, Professor Allen Abad - 8th degree, Sigung Joe Tarango - 7th degree, Sigung Joe Stubbs - 7th degree, and Sigung Bill Rodriguez - 7th degree.
This is the system from which evolved: “Karazempo Goshin Jitsu”, “Kenkabo”, “Shaolin Kempo”, “CHA-3 Kenpo”, “Universal Kempo”, “Nick Cerio’s Kenpo”, “Ken-Ka Kung Fu”, “Hawaiian Kenpo”, “Ukidokan Karate”, and many others.

* Please note that belt requirement techniques and knowledge shown on the tapes “A-2 through A-6” DO NOT contain the techniques from the tape before it. In other words, “Grab Arts 1-7” shown on Tape A-1 are not repeated on Tape A-2. Tape A-2 will contain “Grab Arts 8-15” and so on. Also, I must make it clear that the techniques (Grab Arts, etc.) shown on Tape A-2/Purple Belt for example, are performed along with the requirements from the previous belt test (Purple Belt requires 1-15 Grab Arts not 8-15) when testing for the next belt level.

I have these videos and I think that they are very good. The presentation is done well and the production quality is better than many higher priced martial arts videos I have seen. I only have two complaints. I wish there had been more technical explanation of the techniques and I would have liked more footage of Sijo Emperado.
