ajukenbo was founded in 1947 at Palamas Settlement on Oahu, Hawaii . It developed out of a group calling themselves the "Black Belt Society", which consisted of black belts from various martial arts backgrounds who met to train and learn with each other. This was the beginning of an evolutionary, adaptive style designed to combine the most useful aspects of the arts...

The word Kajukenbo is derived from the letters of the styles that contributed to the creation of the art. Together they make up the Kajukenbo motto: "Through this fist style one gains long life and happiness."
