Sibak Dominic Soberano Martial Arts Background

Sibak Dominic was born and raised in the rough neighborhoods of Kalihi where Kajukenbo was created and developed by the founders of the martial art. In his neighborhood, Sibak Dominic had to learn how to watch his back when walking in the streets just in cas someone would jump him. Things like this made Sibak Dominic street-wise and therefore learning Kajukenbo was natural for him.

Sibak Dominic started his martial arts journey by wrestling for Farrington High School for four years. From wrestling, he learned takedowns and grappling techniques as well as the concept of a good base. In 2003, Sibak Dominic started studying Kajukenbo with Sifu Trent Sera on the island of Maui, Hawaii and has never turned back. "While taking Kajukenbo, I learned so many things about myself, including my strengths and weaknesses, which I use in my everyday life. Kajukenbo is a good source of building character." says Sibak Dominic. Sibak Dominic attained his Black Belt in 2008 and his 1st degree Black Belt in 2009 from Sifu Trent Sera.

Sibak Dominic has entered a few tournaments on Oahu but "The true success is not in the fight, but when you can inspire and change a person's life through the martial arts", says Sibak Dominic. Sibak Dominic currently teaches the Kajukenbo classes at both the Pukalani and Kahului locations and attends seminars from Grandmasters to gain more knowledge, He started training in the art of Wing Chun Kung Fu under Sifu Garcia in 2010.
