On this week’s episode we delve into the life and legacy of a true martial arts icon. Meet Al Dacascos: an acclaimed author, revered teacher, podcast host, and a martial artist whose journey began at the tender age of 11.
In the annals of martial arts history, Al Dacascos stands as a pioneer. In 1969, he forged his own path by founding Wun Hop Keun Do, a fusion of Kajukenbo with elements of Chinese and Filipino martial arts. With a staggering repertoire of over 200 championships, his prowess knows no bounds. His dominance transcended the mat, gracing the covers of countless martial arts magazines.
Inducted into the Black Belt Hall of Fame in 1977 and again in 1992 by Inside Kung Fu Magazine, his accolades speak volumes. From captivating audiences on The Merv Griffin Show to leaving an indelible mark on ABC’s Wide World of Sports in 1975, Al’s presence on screen is as electrifying as his moves.
Yet, his impact extends beyond the realm of entertainment. As a member of the USA Martial Arts Team, he embarked on a historic journey to China, immortalized in the award-winning documentary “China’s Living Legends.”
