About

Trujillo's Art of Self Defense in Chula Vista teaches Lima Lama, Kenpo, and Kajukenbo from a studio on the Broadway corridor, blending Polynesian-rooted striking with Hawaiian and Chinese Kenpo self-defense systems. The Lima Lama curriculum layers open-hand strikes, joint manipulations, and takedown counters into flowing combination sets that develop the rotational agility and body awareness also trained in tumbling progressions at Compass Gymnastics. Sensei Trujillo leads classes on a Monday-Wednesday-Friday schedule, maintaining small class sizes that allow technique correction on individual strikes and defensive sequences. The Kajukenbo component draws from its five-art foundation — karate, judo, jiu-jitsu, Kenpo, and Chinese boxing — giving students exposure to multiple combative ranges within a single self-defense system. Students outfit for contact sparring and board-breaking sessions with protective headgear, hand pads, and shin guards available at equipment outfitters such as Big 5 Sporting Goods on the Broadway commercial strip. Advanced practitioners execute twelve-technique Lima Lama combination sets, Kajukenbo grab-defense sequences, and Kenpo five-count self-defense forms within a unified testing syllabus spanning white through black-belt rank.
