Day Three Hundred Fifty-Four: Kajukenbo

Our library organized a free, two-night, self-defense class for women, and I signed up as soon as I heard about it. The kajukenbo class is taught by a fifth-degree blackbelt and focuses on a  blended form of martial arts, which borrows techniques from karate, judo, jiu jitsu, kenpo, kung-fu, and Chinese boxing. I did take a self-defense class in college, but thankfully, I haven't needed to use any of that knowledge, so it's gotten a bit rusty. I think it's a great service to our community, and I'm glad I have the chance to participate.
