4. In response to the question, "What is the first thing you would teach an 8 yr old (beginning student)?", kajukenbo founder Sijo Adriano Emperado said, "I would teach them judo first. Teach them how to roll, fall, throw, be comfortable on the ground. When a bully comes up to them, if they punch the bully they're gonna get in trouble. If they throw the bully to the ground, roll around, know how to control them without ever striking, they're gonna show the bully they can handle themselves. And then when they get older, then when you know they can understand the use of force, then you teach strikes." 
I've been thinking about this and am intrigued to know your thoughts.
