Guila's Kaju-Kickboxing, operating as Maximus Combat Sports Academy & Cesar Gracie Jiu Jitsu, is led by Grand Master Dennis Guila, a 9th-degree Red Belt with over five decades of martial arts experience. Master Guila’s background includes military combat training and recognition in multiple martial arts halls of fame, which informs his practical and disciplined approach to teaching. The academy traces its Kajukenbo lineage through notable masters including Adriano Emperado and others who shaped the art’s development in Hawaii. This foundation blends traditional martial arts with real-world self-defense and combat sports. Students at Maximus train in a variety of disciplines, with Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu classes offered for youth ages 4 to 11 as well as teens and adults. The BJJ program includes gi training and accommodates drop-in students. Beyond Jiu-Jitsu, the school emphasizes Kajukenbo and Muay Thai boxing, reflecting its commitment to a trinity of self-defense styles. The curriculum focuses on building strength, confidence, and life skills, while also addressing anti-bullying and fitness. Classes are structured to challenge students progressively and foster personal growth. The academy operates from a wheelchair-accessible facility in Antioch, California, with additional programs offered in nearby communities. Alongside group classes, personal training and corporate seminars are available, extending Grand Master Guila’s teachings beyond the academy. Maximus maintains a serious but family-friendly atmosphere, aiming to prepare its members for the physical and mental demands of self-defense and combat sports.
