  • lets get into reality, you cant use half the moves they did in a real fight against a fighter that knows how to fight, i say it cuz i tried fighting with some guy and i couldnt use all those moves, , very hard, but i use some moves the basics blocks and kicks i beat him

  • @Shadowx209 there are a lot of factors that may explain why you couldn't use half of these moves. First might be because you did not train to use them, if you've read ''tao of JKD'' you'd remember that Bruce Lee said that one must practice his moves until they become instinctive. Therefore using such movements like the wing chun parts of the combinations they did, would seem hard and useless if one did not train to use them. Peace!

  • This isnt what BL did, and it violates the basic principles of JKD.

  • Great video, its JKD. JKD is not a specific style and it's for street fight without rules. some teniques can't be used in the competition. Also, JKD is a way of thinking, the way to beyond yourself. It can look like any style or not Beside the basic things which were created by Bruce Lee, everyone should have different JKD. JKD comes from WING CHUN but more effective than WINGCHUN. It's a combination of different martial arts with the WINGCHUN background.

  • i think its shame that there are 10 times more demos then there are actual fights or sparring videos on jkd. spreading jkd is great but dont do it through demos bruce hated demos and katas. he thought everything should be live sparring full contact, not scripted events. Also he would be disappointed, because like he said "boards dont hit back".

  • GREAT demo

  • Good demonstration of JKD principles.

  • Jeet Kune Do is a subsidiary of Wing chun, Bruce designed it for in the real world. Where Wing Chun can be used in the real world too. JKD is less complexed and quick to learn than Wing Chun

  • It's beautiful to see how Bruce lives on through this..

  • looks all cute and sweet. but try this while you spar...all that shit flys out the window.

  • @mmalizard here it goes again...try BJJ on the street and see what happens when yer attacker's friends decide to kick yer head in whilst yer trying to put a hold on their buddy...or better yet try fighting in the streets w/ a combatant who isnt confined to the rules of the "mighty octogon" you so humbly worship...granted I know Im going to get a tongue lashing from this douche as this what he does but i mean really how many "real fights"have you been in??

  • just watch this

  • Really liked watching this video.Does anybody now of JKD in Dublin Ireland.

    Peace

    Ger

  • Excellent! I teach JKD privately. :-)

    There is a bit of it in my vid.

  • In my opinion Jeet Kune Do isn't a 'style' but rather a reaction expanded on a framework, and a mindset

  • Bruce preached jkd as a way of living. Were fish in an ocean of energy. The tides change an the currents do so as well. Mind how you swim because your ripples will become waves.

  • I only see jkd vs jkd,, no jkd vs other style, these people try to move like Bruce ,, not like thyself. the people makes a remake of bruce lee, dont xpress their feeling like JKD say.

  • in karate no one actually punches like that in a real fight, its just training to teach you how to use your hips...

  • It is a great demonstration from our netherlands neighbours, gratiulation! I think that JKD is one of the best systems to fight, better than to learn only wing chun because by JKD you learn much more from others martial arts styles.

  • How about if MMA fighters had a fight with a JKD player. The MMA fighter would be able to strike high and low and shoot in high for a judo toss and low for a wrestlers takedown. I think JKD is too complicated. I was a competitive fighter for about 5 years in the AAU and I learned more from this than from any school. I learned that people move in strange ways when in actual combat. They don't leave their hands out when they punch or kick. Street fighters are most fun to fight, just stay calm.

  • If your experience with JKD has lead you to believe that it is too complicated, then I would say you haven't had experience with real JKD. One of the most fundamental philosophies of JKD is the simplicity and efficiency - the removal of the silly complications that are so prevalent throughout most formal martial arts. This philosophy applies to not only the techniques used, but the nature of their application as well. You saying that JKD is too complicated strikes me as contradictory.

  • Jeet Kune Do is not complicated, it is the opposite. JKD is economy in motion. Be like water my friend.

  • lol MMA Stemmed from JKD. Bruce even did wrestling and BJJ. You can see this in his last movie, game of death. Yes people do move in strange ways in combat, but if you know anything about JDK, you would know that you should deduce their style and use it to your advantage. And yes, people dont keep their arms outstretched, but every punch has a counter punch, which is a very heavy basis in JKD. Have you ever heard of Broken Rythym, of Counter time? you should really go read a book by Bruce Lee.

  • @clearcombat

    Competitive fighting is not the same as true unarmed combat. JKD is all about freedom. But if you look at the teachings so for, you can say that it's complex in its simplicity. Take for example the principle of punching. Try to throw a lighting punch while letting your hand move first and then putting the rest of your body behind it. Sounds simple enough does it? Just try.

  • @Micahel213 Michael knows something.

    I also noticed in this demo, there are alot of passive moves.

  • i loved these demonstrations. Very nice contrast and easy to follw with fast and slow. I have seen many JKD fast combos but this is one of the first times ive seen them slowely displayed. Awsome stuff!

  • end up doing most moves from wing chun..

  • yep, it's very similar to wing chun except for the stances and the dynamics of some steps/kicks. it's a bit more mobile than wing chun which in my opinion is very good.

  • I'd like to see if this style holds up in UFC or pride. Very beautiful to watch.

  • JKD isnt a style and also most techinques wouldnt be aloud in the ufc or pride! JKD was designed for street fighting not competions with rules!

  • I AGREE

  • True. JKD Is easily the best.

  • Dit kon beter, als jullie echt JKD begrepen zou je begrijpen dat wat jullie doen voorgeoefend is, en een echt gevecht is spontaan en kan niet voorgeoefend worden. Plus, nadat Chuck Norris tegen Bruce Lee zei "I like the abillity to kick anywhere at all" heeft Lee zijn JKD aangepast. Why the fuck zou ie anders bij zijn JKD demonstratie bij Ed parker die meervoudige agillity trap laten zien? En een trap in het gezicht kan makkelijk effectief zijn als je het effectief uitvoert.

  • jij moet ook weten als ik 1000 keer succerpunch naar mijn hoofd krijg , ik hem dan ook zie komen , hoe meer je vecht en oefend hoe sneller ze zullen mogen komen naar je hoofd. je weet zellef

  • Twee dikkerds die denken dat ze Jeet Kun do kunnen. Wat een grap!!

  • bruce lee is the best

  • jammer dat er weinig side kick gedaan

  • The 'on-guard' stance is the ANCHOR of JFJKD. IT allows attacks & movement in any direction, makes you a smaller faster target, maintains your balance and protects your groin which is ALWAYS essential. Stances can be temporarily dissolved while executing but not discarded. JFJKD works for everbody if you learn IT correctly. JKD is NOT everything in martial arts rolled into one, thats 'JKD CONCEPTS' the JKD philosophy without any of the JKD fighting knowledge. Check the Bruce Lee Foundation.

  • Really Bad form....sorry guy's keep working at it.

  • I really belive that JKD only suited the founder of this martial art Bruce Lee best, He created something that fitted him 100% ,as for the rest of using this system ,we only achieve a fraction of the entire philosofy. there can only be one Bruce

    R.I.P Bruce

  • Jeet kun do

    The Way of the Intercepting Fist

  • wat zou BL er zelf van vinden...wat een slechte demo

  • JUN FAN IS JEET KUNE! It was jun fan/jeet june do,but now it's said to be the same.You have JFJKD what Bruce did in his life time and you have JKDC that Dan Inosanto trains in.nones better than the other,just JKDC Bruce did not do in his life time.

  • Chuck was Bruse Lee's pupil,but not for long

  • no he was not if u read up on both of them it says that he wasnt they had some sparring sessions thats all

  • Bruce Lee was a boxing champion in high school.

  • wow this is not JKD.......i've been studying JKD for 12 years.......and this is definitely a form of wing chun........

  • JKD is an expanded form of wing chun. (the martial art bruce lee was taught as a child)

  • no it's not

  • tell me, what is jkd? do you even know? jkd is not a style but a concept and your own personal exspression of the martial arts, so in theroy all martial arts are jkd, but its up to you to find what works the best for you from the martial arts and makes use of whats usefull, discard what is useless and add what is your own

  • Sorry but these Dutch gentlemen are not practising true and ORIGINAL jkd. This looks poor in comparison and is missing the proper stance. One groin kick would disable either of these fools because their genitals are completely unprotected.

  • That is the proper stance in Jeet Kune Do.

    The stance is like a Fencers stance and look at the leading leg,the foots faceing in so the knee is protecting the groin.

  • I know the proper 'on-guard' stance for JKD, if you watch the feet on both of the demonstrators you will see that their toe on the lead foot is pointing wrong and their stance is too open and not in alignment down the opposing centerline. They are not doing it correctly, they could front kick one another in the groin at any time when they are trapping.

  • Wolfgath, you are trying to conform the stance in witch they are in as style, and form... If you haven't learned yet, its not about form, style, set of rules,limits, there aren no bounds on Jun Fan JKD, it's all about essence of being in the moment the fight is about to, and begin to determine the counter offensive.. You use they way of no way as a means to destroy your opponent.... Who is a psychic and can determine the path of a blow or attack?.... You must determine the way of the fight

  • fair enough but a good stance will give you an advantage and the proper stance will root you firmly, while allowing maximum mobility. jkd isn't about "do what you want in order to win" otherwise it'd say pick up a 2x4 and start smacking the guy around...or shoot him if u can :P

  • no that is jun fan gung fu, you people just do seem to understand the diffrences bettween jkd and jun fan gung fu

  • dude jun fan was bruce lee chinese name and jun fan gung fu was his school name

  • basically the watered down western version of wing chun

  • I know everyone thought Bruce Lee was the best, but i'm not convinced...he never actually won anything, only played in movies.

    Jackie Chan, Jet Li, and Chuck Norris actually proved their strength in martial arts

  • You are confusing Jackie and Bruce? Because of those 4, Jackie is the one who achieved nothing in martial arts tournaments or. He is just a very good stuntman.

  • Chuck was a student of lee and jackie met lee and says hes too fast.

  • You are mistaken man, Chuck Norris is one of Bruce Lee's Pupils

  • are you sure about that?

  • JKD have no style omg......

  • Practicality over elegance.

  • So true! agree totally

  • I truly learned and enjoyed the lesson from this video. May I ask of a favor I take Wing Chun classes. Can you tell me abou the bow yo do at the end of this clip. It looks familiar. I would like to learn it also. So may I suggest, why dont you make a video tutorial on how to do that specific Jeet Kune Do Bow. Thank You for your time and patience.

    I hope to see that video soon.

  • It's the original Oakland greeting. I'm told this is the one sijo Bruce used in his three schools. So it might be the only traditional thing we are doing! However, I don't have the equipment to make a video tutorial right now. It might happen at the end of august though, when a bunch of hardcore JKD practitioners get together to train for a few days. You will be notified. Take care.

  • if jkd was so effective then why its not used in the UFC? Boestch is a JKD man but uses muay thai, and maybe the front kick, but thats wing chun and muay thai. Bruce lee is the only man that can use JKD effectively because of his abilities that many people dont have. And plus thats his "own" fighting style. That art was made for "his" body, nots yours, not mines, only his. But i love the art for whats its worth.

  • JKD is aimed towards oneself....Its not a way of using it in means of effectively defeating an oponent but ones own self......What you wrote seemed to describe JKD as a style, which is not what Bruce Lee intended it to be.....

  • saigonhustla...jeet kune do has muay thai in it. i hear ur supposed to use what suits u best, so that ufc dude ur on about must base other fighting concepts used in jeet kune do around muay thai, and muay thai fighting has rules like ufc, jeet kune do doesnt.. im not saying ur wrong. just he mite feel more comfortable using muay thai stance and kicks instead of the jeet kune do stance and kicks.

    peace

  • I love Jeet Kune Do, and I have great respect for, but I won't trap myself with only this concept either, I take the straight lead from JKD for example, but I also take the element of Na from Choy Lei Fut. I don't conclude to a concept nor a style.

  • blahh!!.

  • cara isso é lindo

  • Bruce lee power....wahaouu

  • Honestly, i think JKD is made for people with speed. For it to be really effective, you gotta have some crazy twitch muscles in arms, legs, core. Maybe its only made for people like bruce lee. Other wise its pointless, the punches wont have effectiveness if not thrown correctly.

  • JKD is not about learning how to do things fast. It's about adapting to what your body has the ability to do. If some big slow guy wanted to learn JKD, he could, he would use what was best for him.

  • I think that is possible, but I have minorly studied JKD and I am a large guy standing at

    6'2 245lbs and I am not the fastest guy on earth, but it works well. I think it jsut takes an incredible amount of practice to be great at it, but that goes for any martial art. I was naturally a good wrestler, but more and more I practice the better I become still.

  • oh gosh.... i love the description of the uploader. why? people only hear "jeet kun do" making their conclusions.

    jeet kun do as bruce lee said is just a name. Don't fuss over it (it's not to be exploited or explicit.)

  • yeah, he was even considering not naming it, but decided to so people would have something to go on, right?

  • Zabivelli...its Dutch! You know why? I'll tell you why...I live in Holland and believe me...it's Dutch alright!

    Doe eerst ff research voordat je domme dingen gaat zeggen ;)

  • These guys look gay to me, their standard is terrible. Bruce must be well chuffed that his art has been diluted!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • JKD was a martial art made for the user to express his/herself, without being constrained by traditional MA, if they don't want to. really, Bruce made an art for himself, not the world. so on that note, i took what i learned from jkd (all ranges) and applied to my ruthless nature, and made a really sick art, I call it, Kinostyle.

  • kinostyle! huh?! well i like you style man. Gutsy style, hehehe!

  • DUDE this is not DUTCH..but RUSSIAN!!

  • hmm why russian?? how have u determined?

  • Goeie grap man

  • ik hoor het nu man...ahaha i nederlands lol

    i could swear that i thought it was russian peeps, but sorry its dutch i turned my speakers up!..but any way i add this vid to my VAFO..i did some of the moves home!

  • this is dutch, listen to the last part of the video

  • there is no a better martial arts, there are only better martial artist

  • although i must remind you that these strikes look like faints.

  • this looks more like the method Bruce used with the wing chun influence(heavy trapping) instead of the epee fencing influence(interception).

  • I'd practiced shotokan karate for almost 3 years, and JKD for almost 4 weeks. It sounds ridiculous but I'd learned more about myself, to express myself in 4 weeks of JKD than 3 years of shotokan. I am a human being, not a computer, And here I am expresssing myself. R.I.P. bruce. thanks for saving us from traditional japanese styles that don't lead anywhere

  • Uh, don't playa-hate on the Japs man. Their martial arts have change alot since the years. What you call shotokan karate, is just American Karate.

  • ha ha true all I did in shotokan was kata and kata and more kata, but no fighting

  • be like water :p

  • Sorry, muay thai and BJJ still rules.

  • im not sure what bjj is reffering to sorry, but these examples show flow, the fluid movment with ease bruce had. That is not ALWAYs the case for JKD, JKD is taking what expresses you most what can be most effective for the situation and using it without rules or expectations if many aspects of muay thai express your emotional expression use it however if there are times where a hip throw or an arm bar say from judo or tai chi chuan use that. JKD is an expression of true emotion through physical

  • for example i am a practioner of judo, tai chi chuan, boxing, systema and krav maga now none of those are "JKD" but using all of those to express who i am and what i am in that moment if this or that is happening to me is JKD .. using no way as way to express oneself truly (only in my humble opinion your all free to have your own about his art)

  • "If you do not have style if you just say well here i am as a human being how can i express myself totaly and completely now that way you wont create a style because style is a crystalization you know, so that way there is a process of coninuing growth" -- Bruce Lee

  • I appreciate your comments. I am probably the biggest fan of Bruce Lee. I got into martial arts as a kid because of him. I have studied TKD, JKD, Judo and presently fighting as a Muay Thai and Brazilian JJ fighter. The most effective are the latter. Understand, I respect the theory of JKD. Its taking the most effective movements of ANY style and making them work for YOU. Lee was pound for pound the best artist ever. But for the rest of us humans, I feel MT and BJJ are most effective...

  • i respect that and even more for you from your explanation, thank you

  • that was in reply to asiaaz

  • i have done jeet kune do for over 10 years and you need rules first as a princabull then you change what ever fits you and your body,

    exsaple i like to be in close but i can fight at long range to. there are ranks in jkd its more for the people out side of jkd,but every jkd peron use's the same rule hit hit and hit then hit some more in the worets place,hard and fast dont block you hit and block at the same time

  • ur lying, if u did do jeet kune do for 10 yrs, u wouldn't of called it jeet kune do or posted that comment. Rmember the most underlying concept, it was made to not exist, discard the name after learning it

  • I would say in general that it is important to remember that JKD is a theory not an art. Like the concept of infinity. Infinity is not a number, but a concept pertaining to numbers; JKD is like a theory pertaining to every martial artist.

  • I recently finished reading a series of books on taoism and talking to some Professional taoist and others who have followed the concepts. Looks like the late bruce lee tried to turn the infinite tao into a physical form and died right in the middle of it.

  • "Jeet Kune Do: it's just a name; don't fuss over it. There's no such thing as a style if you understand the roots of combat."[Bruce Lee]

    The last Official Jeet kun do schools were shut down by bruce lee in 1972, to this day it remains a concept, and it's interpretation is entirely up to the practioners, in one word, express yourself honestly, but it can be said that the main principles of most jeet kun do schools today still involves chi sau and wing chun and other principles of trapping.

  • you ser are lying

  • Jeet Kune Do is an excellent philosophy of the application of martial technique but all of these so called instructors who are assigning ranks and belts for a system of philosophy without form is ridiculous.

  • i guess im one of the people u are talking about, i guess i should return my ribbons and trophies my students has won from the so called legit students of the art my students has beaten in the tournament. hmmmmm not.. lol

  • Do you let your students fight matches?

    Isn't that something with rules, as in exactly the opposite of JKD?

  • yes it has rules, some rules is better than no fight at all.

  • Why is that better in your opinion? Not a moral or rhetorical question, I'm just looking for some answers. I consider fighting as a matter of a boost for the human ego and search for approval. It's something I'm trying to avoid. I guess you would disagree?

  • yes i agree with u, but i don't teach my students to fight, fighting is being aggressive with ego desires, I teach inner disclipine and harmony and creativity, and Self-Defense is what i teach. Thats a difference.

  • I like your comment. Thank you.

  • please don't tell me you're a fan of brazilian jjt...I enjoy playing on the ground as well...in fast...most ppl who have enough stamina on the ground might be good..in hard ground...it will not work...jkd is good enough...

  • The guidelines could be:

    No matter how much power you are meeting, but it is important how you can control it.

    Probably an underlying principle of "everything flows"

    The fluidity of movement wins the pure strength.

    The kinetic energy of the body's opponent is in favour of those who know how to use it

  • Does anyone know if the audio is available for download? the backing track and music?

  • I don't think so. A friend of mine produced the track for the video and did the voice over. I don't reckon it would be on the Internet.

  • u can only show certain principles, j.k.d is no style. its a principle.

  • "having no way as way, having no limitation as limitation"

  • jkd is my life

  • there is one of the most important technique called 45 angal in jkd.

  • There is a lot of Lin-Sil-Di-Dar stuff in this demo and sloppy Bai Jong guard positions, the lead leg also straddles the partners front shin instead of jamming it in the trapping sequences. On the plus side it doesn't totally reek of Wing Chun as most supposed JKD demo's do.

  • BY THE WAY IN THE OPENING TECHNIQUE THAT OF A SHIN KICK ONE MUST LEAN BACK IN LINE WITH ONE'S OWN LEAD LEG OR ONE WILL STILL BE IN DANGER OF BEING PUNCHED BY THE OPPONENT.The opponent should have push shuffled in to close the gap and the shin obsruction counter should have contacted on the rim of the fighting measure.

  • well it looks like wing chun but dog don't be so quick to write it off. most of the techniques from tao of jkd--at least the ones most heavily focused on--are based off wing chun anyway as that was lee's primary 'style'.

    plus, wing chun is efficient in terms of closing and power generation--discarding the unnecessary--which is what jkd is all about anyhow =)

  • I hope you can fully understand that "MODIFIED" means re-orientated, changed into something else. I.e., no longer Wing Chun. Let the Wing Chun straw your clutching to go my friend if you are seeking real JKD. Amen.

  • Who's clutching anything? What I said was that a lot of what these guys are doing are wing chun techniques, which there's nothing wrong with because Lee's text incorporates them heavily into the training system. have you read the tao of jkd? Read "About This Video" (it's the last line of ToJKD) before you start talking about this (wing chun) or that (JKD). If practiced honestly, it's all martial art.

  • do jkd fighters always have their right foot in front or is this just a coincidence?

  • Het is lekkerder om je rechtervoet/hand voor te hebben als je rechtshandig bent. Als je linkshandig bent vecht het uiteraard beter met je linkervoet/hand voor.

  • Hi bigbangAT, the principle in JKD of which lead to adopt is call 'Power side forward'. JKD is effectively fencing with the lead hand and foot. Therefore as most people are right handed JKD can appear to be a right sided art but of course if someone is left handed then they will lead from the left.If you were given a sword to fight and you were right handed you wouldn't suddenly hold it in your left would you?

  • ok dankjewel miwerino, ah ok thanks jeetkunejimi. (i was at my brothers account when i wrote it)

    that explains alot, i was always wondering why they were fighting like this.

  • No worries, the idea is that you have more control over your limbs on the side you write with therefore you can strike quicker and with more acurracy then when an opening arises you can make your weaker hand seem more powerful by throwing it from a further distance. Common sense really wouldn't you say, kind of putting your best foot forwards. God bless.

  • el weon se eskivoka el sensei en el minuto 4 con 30 segundos se asalta el paso donde le tenia ke pegar la patada........ni se abian dado cuenta jajajaja

  • A beautiful illustration of some applications. Thanx miwerino.

  • um not really

  • comparing martial arts and boxing is like comparing apples and oranges they are two totally different things

  • They are both pieces of fruit.

  • pathetic.

  • i think if bruce was alive today and in his prime like he was he would slap the lips right off any boxers face JKD intercepting the fist how can a boxer box when all punches are intercepted?

  • Uhhhhh...what he Bruce doesn't intercept all of them?

    Your logic is flawed, home-slice.

  • Your grammar is flawed home slice.

  • The Jeet kune do is a very good class of Martial art discipline cause it was created for the best master in the history "Bruce Lee".

  • rest in peace bruce. long live jeet kune do.

  • put any jkd martial artist against floyd mayweather or any world class boxer and they will loose.

  • Interesting idea. I personally think that Mayweather would dominate in a boxing match since JKD relies on trapping, grabbing and kicking which would be banned in the fight.

    But in a MMA fight I think he would struggle against the top fighters because he's used to playing by rules that don't exist in these fights.

  • i, myself have done all different types off martial arts from freestyle kb to grappling and the most complete system for me is boxing.. much more accurate and defensive if used properly. But I think Floyd would win in a "anything goes" fight the only weak side he would have is gorund work but thats easily taught..

  • Boxing is a limited fighting system nor can any boxer simply learn groundgame but Mayweather is special.You cannot box like Mayweather because his talents are unique... you might even say he developed his own style. Ricky Hatton doesn't box like Mayweather. Lennox Lewis said that Mayweather sometimes looks like he's doing Martial Arts when he boxes.

  • Search Youtube for: SUGAR RAY LEONARD/LENNOX LEWIS ON RICKY/FLOYD. Lennox said, "...Floyd is more of a counter-puncher when he boxes, he looks like he's doing martial arts in there because he's quick and the way he moves around..."

  • yeh i had seen that interview before.. its true but my MT and KB teachers hated high kicks as they were too slow and a real fighter would see them comming.. in K1 the foot is always grabbed but the guy can always gets back up. in a real street fight someone grabs your foot an your f00ked.. my point is if someone attacks me i dont wanna be messing about with fancy kicks and hands, its gotta be quick and simple like boxing

  • Many fighters are average kickers and better punchers, but top Muay thai fighters can combine low / high kicks and knees to knock people out... those ain't fancy.

    Boxers get grabbed too easily... they should train elbows and knees in clinches if they want to survive a streetfight with a MMA artist. Check out Anderson Silva vs Rich Franklin. Silva is a Muay thai champion and current UFC champion... a COMPLETE striker.

  • You don't have any idea! The boxers are limited, they're strong "yes" but the important in this class of fights is the TECHNIQUE. The martial artist know how to use every part of their bodies cause the Martial arts are for DEFENSE.

  • Dont train JKD! Find your one Style of Martial Art.

    Evolution is to inovate not imitate!

  • I believe the name 'Jeet Kune Do' is basically Bruce's way of saying 'Be free from restraint'.

    Studying his books tells you this, however; do not simply take his techniques and say you practice JKD, you have to adapt the JKD mindset before physical training is undertaken...otherwise you are just practicing another set of techniques.

  • that's true. JKD is a philosophy, a way of life. it covers almost everything under the sun. Its not a technique or a style of MA.

  • Boring ass faggots.

  • I can spell jeet kune do but i was not making a point about my grammar. this is not how burce lee would have wanted this art to be portrayed. Why don't you listen a bit to what he says.

  • These guys really dont know shit about jeet kun do. look at how tense they are and shit. it angers me that this is considered jeet kun do.

  • For one, this is a demonstration, and two, maybe they don't like being on stage, but believe that they must teach what they know about jeet kune do.

  • i know these guys suck dick bruce lee would be ashamed of himself that these guys call this jeet kune do. fags

  • also, JKD is just a name so you are ashaming the name by reffering it as a style.

    .............sure

  • Don't judge. Go read the Tao of JKD. How can you say 'this is right' or 'this is wrong'. JKD is what you make of it. It's a personal experiance, and this is their own.

  • thank you show these guys up

  • kk nep

  • Comparing Jeet Kun Do to other Martial Arts is like comparing Coaching to other Sports.. One is the Tool one is the Application.. You can try to compare but then you would have to invent physics to make it work.

  • Jeet Kun Do is basically all styles rolled into one without the inessentials.. It favors formlessness.. It emphasizes on speed and getting to the point. It has a basic stance which serves all purposes.. Secondly It's to train the mind and state of mind.. It can favor all forms of martial arts. "Be like Water." Apply it to Life..

  • true that

  • It also emphasizes strength, because he taught that it's best to have the strong hand in fornt. IOW, if you're right handed and is stronger in the right hand, have that hand in front. This probably allows balance between both hands. Just remember that JKD isn't a style, but a philosophy, because Lee didn't want to have to create a new "style" with rules on "what you're supposed to do" rather than "what is the best way."

  • hey wow note the speed of his punch

  • This is my favorite type of martial art.

  • yes it is you noob lol their braking it down slowly in steps and jeet kune do is non traditional,simple & direct to push outter limits of the human body,using no way as a way and no limitation as a limitation this is the pupose of jeet kune do get it right fool lol

  • jeet kun do is not so greate, there are other stiles that kick it ass

  • You do realise, right, using the term 'noob' instantly IDs you, yourself as a newbie?

    I don't get you armchair fighters... seriously. Sif fight armchairs :/
