60 years Martial Arts Experience
Grandmaster Luciano born in Hawaii has over 60 years of martial arts training, at the age of 12 was introduced to
Kajukenbo. Grandmaster Luciano believes that loyalty and discipline coupled with dignity, respect and honor are
the ingredients of the martial arts. Therefore, he encourages his peers and practitioners of their respective systems
to acknowledge that "to teach is to learn." Everyone is a student. They should also bear in mind that "one hand
washes the other," and should therefore preserve and protect the bylaws of both God and people. He believes in
Humility and Patience. When you see his students perform, you know they have kajukenbo in their hearts and the
respect of their peers because of the strength of the moves and their technique. He accredits his abilities and
knowledge to his grandfather the late Sifu Lai, Sijo Emperado and his Advisory Staff.

Grandmaster Al Dacascos has been an icon in the martial arts. Since the founding of his unique fighting art, Wun
Hop Kuen Do in 1969, Al Dacascos has become one of the most noted martial artists of our era. He has completed
the cycle from outstanding student to world class competitor in both fighting and forms, to innovative instructor.
He has given motivation to many martial artists and trained many world champions. But the great thing that sets
him apart is his willingness to give encouragement to other martial artists when needed. He has given his support
to this project and we are gratefully appreciative.

55 Years Kajukenbo
Emil Bautista was born in 1938 in Alameda, California.  He began studying Kajukenbo in 1961 in Fairfield, CA
under Aleju Reyes and continued under AhGung Tony Ramos also in Fairfield.  He received his black belt in
Kajukenbo in June of 1963 and later went directly under Sijo Emperado, the founder of the Kajukenbo
system, for his training.  He started his own school in 1968 in Vallejo, CA and today, almost 40 years later, it is
still located at the same Benicia Rd. address.  No other martial art school, in fact no other business in Vallejo
can make that claim.   He has taught thousands of  students over the years and has promoted only 40 of them
to black belt status due to his rigorous training and strict standards for black belts.

In 1993 Bautista and his school were awarded the distinction of becoming the Northern California
Headquarters of Kajukenbo Self-Defense Institute, Inc. by Sijo Emperado {the website is
www.NorCalHeadquartersKSDI.50megs.com}. In 1999 in Las Vegas, Nevada he received the title of Grand
Master again from Sijo Emperado, one of only a handful of men to receive this honor.

featured him in their June 2004 issue.  He has 2 sons who trained in Kajukenbo and are black belts today.
