Michael Foley

Senior Instructor

KKCMA Professor Bio Michael M. Foley began training in Martial Arts while he was in the 7th grade in 1967. He started with Judo/Jiujitsu in Northern California. He then studied Omega Karate and Kenpo Chuan Fa. He joined the US Army so he could go to Hawaii to study from Mr. Omega’s Instructor; Roger B. Calejo. Once he got to Hawaii, Professor Foley discovered the amount of Martial Art Schools, Studios, Dojos there were on Oahu. He started learning multiple styles from Master Instructors of various systems of Martial Art. Prof was already a Second Grade Brown Belt so it didn’t take long for him to start racking up Black Belts in these different styles. At the same time, he was working as a Military Policeman and after a year Professor Foley was working with CID (Criminal Investigation Division) on the DST (Drug Suppression Team) He was asked to join them due to his fighting skills. Part of what he was learning was Filipino Stick Fighting which evolved into knife fighting. Later in his military career, Prof Foley was asked to join the SOCOM (Special Operations Command). He began training in the SAS Knife Fighting method. He joined the 3rd of the 12th Special Forces Group and remained with the Special Operations Community for 20 years. He has been to Bosnia, Kosovo, Iraq, Afghanistan, Rwanda Africa, Japan, and Korea where he continued to develop his own martial art system and his method of Knife Fighting. His best teacher was combat experience around the world. He has relied on his abilities in the various martial arts he studied to survive in these hostile environments where he was forced to fight for his life on more than one occasion. Don’t trust someone who got their Black Belt and went out and opened their own school and tell you they know what they are talking about. Trust a man who has “Been there, done that” as far as fighting for his life and has developed a method of instruction that actually works. Michael M. Foley.
