Programs & Class Schedule

West Winds Martial Arts Academy and The International KenAikiJutsuRyu Federation (IKJF) is dedicated to the perpetuation of American Kenpo, Shaolin Kenpo Kemp Kido Kan, Kajukenbo and various other arts (such as aikido ju jistu Hopkido ) all make up the Art of KenAikiRyuJutsu. Ancient dictates have always considered the Martial Way as a spiritual path, conjoined with a physical protective system to protect and manifest one's life.

In the establishment of West Winds Martial Arts Academy and the IKJF, many things were considered, primarily the perpetuation and evolution of Kenpo. We also wanted to establish a network of loyal people who could exchange many different skills besides those on a Martial Arts level.
West Winds Martial Arts Academy was created to serve the need to expand dimensionally in Kenpo without the politics and established regimes. We are a collective body of individuals or separate organizations that maintain their right to control their destiny and freedom of choice. The recognition of that need of choice was the very basis of the formation of this Federation.
West Winds Martial Arts Academy is dedicated to the evolution of the Kenpo systems and not the evolution of bureaucracy. The proliferation of rank attained from favor or commercial interest is at the heart, we believe, of the decline of many Martial Arts. The maintenance of ongoing exploration of the concepts and principles of our Art coupled with extensive work on the mats and most importantly in the real world, will assure the quality and depth of IKJF.
The IKJF is an open federation that welcomes all who wish to pursue Kenpo and is an independent, non-political entity that is based upon Truth and Clarity.
