Sibak Keith McHugh
Keith fulfilled a lifelong dream when he began his Kajukenbo training with
Sifu Danny Flores in 1976 at the age of 18. He earned his first
Kajukenbo Black Belt in 1979 from Sifu Flores.
Keith started studying under Professor Limon in 1998. In order to be fair to
Professor’s long time students, Keith had to start as a White Belt.
He earned his second Kajukenbo Black Belt in 2005 from Professor Limon.
He currently holds a rank of 2nd Degree Black Belt in Kajukenbo.
Keith is currently working with our younger students mainly on their
ground fighting skills, but enjoys teaching all facets of Kajukenbo to them.
Keith’s training philosophy with younger students is "younger students have
an incredible capacity to learn new things. Teach them as much as possible
and have them develop their discipline and skill by practicing their techniques
until they are able to perfect them".
Keith is thankful to Professor Limon for allowing him to be the first
and only Black Belt from another school to be a member of his Kajukenbo Family. |
