Our adult self-defense and kickboxing program is a combination of the self-defense techniques taught in Kajukenbo and kickboxing techniques taken from Erik Paulson’s STX Kickboxing program. It combines striking from boxing, Panatukan, Jun Fan Kickboxing, Savate, Taekwondo, and Muay Thai. We are the only school in 4S Ranch or Rancho Bernardo teaching this style.

STX kickboxing lets students learn to combine punch and kick techniques with their elbows and knees. Skills are pulled from each style to work in MM, kickboxing, or self-defense situations. Whether it’s using focus mitts, heavy bags, or drilling with a partner, students get a great workout and can really see a difference in their body and mind only after a few weeks.

This is a great class for dropping some pounds, making some new adult friends, and is appropriate for all skills levels.

Regardless of how big you are or what you may know, everyone who jumps on the mat wants to keep themselves and their loved one’s safe. You’ll learn techniques that will use your opponent’s strengths against redirecting your opponent’s force, especially if they’re bigger or stronger than you, and we’ll match you with a fighting style perfect for your unique speed and body type. With this level of training, you’ll feel limitless in no time!

Master Martial Artist Down The Street
Many 4S Ranch martial arts schools teach a version of Kajukenbo, but we have an edge. Our school has been in the same palace for 15 years, and we’ve done nothing but grow and expand our program. Our Encinitas location has our head instructor, Master Giuseppe Aliotta, just twenty minutes away! He comes in to teach martial arts seminars at our 4S Ranch location all year long. It’s fantastic to have access to someone with such a wealth of knowledge.https://www.4skarate.org/adult....-kickboxing-self-def
