 Highly sophistiscated in the martial arts and contributing the
Japanese Kodokan Judo/Sekeino Jujitsu with Joseph Holck,
Professor Ordonez is one of the five who helped create Kajukenbo.
His two most notable instructors were Okizaki black belt, Sam Luke,
and Mitose black belt, Thomas Young.

 He is an Honorable Member of the Kuo Min Tang Physical Culture
Association.His martial arts training experience extended to Kenpo
Karate, Judo, jui jitsu, and boxing.Just as important as his physical
acheivements, is his philosophical contributions to the martial arts.

 Prof. Ordonez is the man credited with creating the Kajukenbo
prayer.By his own admission he says that the martial arts has
affected him greatly in that he discovered his weaknesses and
learned to strengthen them.

 He's also learned to integrate the mind, body, and emotions. His
philosophy in life is "knowing others is wisdom. Knowing the self is
enlightenment"

 Today, he states that the martial arts generates the youth to a path
of righteousness. And that self improvement begins with an
assessment of the basis of your own self respect. And from this
point you proceed to the basis on which you must have the respect
of others.

 Prof. Ordonez once said "understanding the mind, then harnessing
it's hidden power's, will bring stability, clarity of the mind, inner
peace, contentment, and the power to erase negative attitudes and
develop a positive nature".
