  Master-Guro Joe Abueg
Master-Guro Joe Abueg is the owner with a background in Arnis De Mano (Filipino Knife and Stick Fighting), and Kenpo Karate.  He studied the art of Arnis under the direction of Master Narrie Babao in 1979.  He later trained with Master Dan Cepeda in the art of Kenpo about four years later. 

"Master Dan Cepeda and his wife, Arlene, have been like a second set of parents to me.  They have been my personal counselors for the past 25 years and I have learned a great deal from both of them.  Master Dan Cepeda sold the studio to me in 1995.  We have continued the tradition of the studio which has now been in business for over 33 years."
 
 
STUDIO HISTORICAL BACKGROUND
Cepeda Bros FoundersCepeda-Abueg Martial Arts was  established in 1974 by the founder, Master-Guro Dan Cepeda and his brother, Master-Guro Fred Cepeda.  Master Dan Cepeda started his training in Kenpo in 1966 with Master Brian Adams, who was one of the first generation Black Belts of the late Grandmaster of Kenpo Karate, Mr. Ed Parker.

In the mid 1970's, Master Dan trained with Master Narrie Babao in the Art of Arnis De Mano.  Master Dan Cepeda transferred the studio to his student, Master-Guro Joe Abueg in 1995.  Cepeda-Abueg Martial Arts is currently owned by Guro Joe Abueg.  Classes are offered in the dynamic Arts of Kenpo and Arnis De Mano  to people of all ages.
