KAJUKENBO ASSOCIATION OF AMERICA

"Gaylord's Method"
The Kajukenbo Association of America (KAA) was
originated in 1967 by notable KAJUKENBO Masters,
Aleju Reyes, Joe Halbuna, Tony Ramos, Charles
Gaylord and Al Al Dacascos. The original organization
existed until the early 1970's. In 1980,
GRANDMASTER Gaylord, with the advice of his top
active Black Belts, decided to once again develop the
KAA into a strong and united organization. The KAA
Board of Directors decided to add the "Gaylord's
Method" to the original KAA patch (original design is by
Al Dacascos) since the KAA now represented the
schools directly under GRANDMASTER Gaylord. All
of the KAA Chief Instructors are directly under
GRANDMASTER Gaylord and teach his method of
KAJUKENBO. The purpose of the KAA is to preserve
and promote the art of KAJUKENBO "Gaylord's
Method"
GRANDMASTER CHARLES H. GAYLORD

art of Kajukenbo for well over 50 years. In 1980. He
received his 9th degree Black Belt from the Kajukenbo
