Taught By Grandmaster Carlito Bonjoc

Carlito Bonjoc Guro Bonjoc was born in the Philippines where he began his martial arts studies at an early age. Under the tutelage of his father Grandmaster Carlito Bonjoc Sr., young Carlito was taught his first Filipino martial arts system. This was his family’s, known as the Cadiz-Lapu Lapu Escrima. Originated in the central Philippines and is based on the double stick movements. Cadiz-Lapu Lapu is very combat effective with or without the use of weapons. As the 4th generation master in the Bonjoc family line, Carlito Jr. teaches the Cadiz system with major emphasis on the Panontukan (Filipino- kickboxing) and Dumog (Filipino-grappling) portions of the system. Carlito Sr. taught his son to always be open minded towards other styles.

Due to this ideology, Carlito Jr. was introduced to other Filipino masters by his father. One of these masters was Roy Ornor. Master Onor taught Carlito Talawan style ofLargo Mano. This system is a long-range blade art that focuses on fighting multiple attackers.

In 1979 Carlito Jr. was introduced to the distinguished Grandmaster Angel Cabales. With his father’s approval, Carlito learned the Cabales Serrada system. In June of 1983 Carlito Jr.obtained an advanced degree in the Cabales Serrada system. After this achievement, Grandmaster Cabales continued to instruct Carlito privately in the finer points of the Serrada system. Due to this training, Carlito became a knowledgeable and highly respected Guro in the Angel Cabales Academy.

Today Master Bonjoc continues to teach the Filipino martial arts as he was taught by his masters. Through videos, group instruction, seminars and private lessons, Carlito continues to share this aspect of Filipino culture with all who wish to learn.

Carlito will cover medio to Corto entry. Leading with a blocking attack, capture, control and finishing the opponent.
