@ gongfubl. The real question is .. would a 400 lb wrestler need to learn JKD ? I'm half joking. Your right JKD is more about concepts than techniques, but JKD does have a structure one must learn before he can develop his own way.
Jkd whatever must be concepts, You could not expect a 6,11 300 pound man to move in a jun fan position. That would be fucking funny. it does not work, people are all different shapes and sizes, someone who fit lee's size may be better of doing jun fan, but a 400 pound wrestler would lol. If you put the wrestler in a jun fan stance you will make him look like a bellend and fuck his whole fighting up. people custom fit there tailored way. Were all the same, yes, but different shapes etc
@governor419 ..hmmnn...they are usefull....but watching an informal video about jeet kune do from anyone other than bruce lee....it feels......like i'm not getting as much out of it....i prefer muay thai instructionals...that arts style of defense is for newbs to pro's....while jeet kune do relies too much speed for me....
control over hips and shoulders are things that make some people faster, better sportists, stuntmen etc :)
if you train your waist and these two centers of body mass, you'll be able to easily add on that and better your punches, football kicks, blocks etc etc
@JKDMaster36 In the Tao Of JKD, it says JKD can be used with Boxing and other styles of matrial arts. You are a master you say? Because that is a very uneducated thing you said about JKD and boxing.
@JKDMaster36 your name is an oxymoron, you can't master jkd, even bruce lee saud that. And you're telling us that TED WONG doesn't know what JKD is? He was given rank by Bruce Lee, but he didn't continue developing JKD, which means he only teaches that which Lee taught him. Therefore this must be JKD, because its the only martial art Wong ever studied. But granted i'd stick with Inosanto on being the authority on JKD.
wow... this is so different from the real JKD.... bruce taught that when u hit u are not going to stop only bechouse u have hit.... when u hit continue the hit until u cant hit straighter...
@narutodamp ou're telling us that TED WONG doesn't know what JKD is? He was given rank by Bruce Lee, he was one of Bruce's top students. You expect us to think you know more than a first generation JKD student? No. But he didn't continue developing JKD, which means he only teaches that which Lee taught him. Therefore this must be JKD, because its the only martial art Wong ever studied. But granted i'd stick with Inosanto on being the authority on JKD.
@ObesityMyth It's TAKY Kimura what? If you're going to say Taky was his best student, you'd be miles off. Even Taky's students said that while he was a good martial artist, he was by no means the best of Lee's students. Most agree that Inosanto was. But Taky was Bruce's best friend. This quote comes from Taky's OFFICIAL website "Was Kimura the best martial artist? No, but he was the best friend of Bruce Lee™ and a man of sterling character." It was his moral core, not skill, that Lee recognized.

@elmariachidelmal4 dude... do u realize that this is JKD... boxing has more form for punches but this is Bruce Lee's martial art.. there was twistin in the wrists.. and even tho he lets his guard down, with correct and strict training, his speed should be quick enough to block or dodge.. and an average boxer doesn't do kicks... so while u think that boxing is better... and practitioner of JKD could most likely beat a boxer in a fight
nice kicks... very shity "power" punches, wheres the twist in the wrists? wheres the raise in shoulders? he drops his guard wit every punch? sorry but an average boxer could take 20 of ur powerpunches and would drop u wit just one of theirs
@elmariachidelmal4 dude... do u realize that this is JKD... boxing has more form for punches but this is Bruce Lee's martial art.. there was twistin in the wrists.. and even tho he lets his guard down, with correct and strict training, his speed should be quick enough to block or dodge.. and an average boxer doesn't do kicks... so while u think that boxing is better... and practitioner of JKD could most likely beat a boxer in a fight
normaly i would argue wit u and defend boxing, but.... yesterday i found out about an old friend that got beat up pretty badly, my friend is a black betlt TKD and competes nationaly, and he was almost killed by an average joe outside a club.... so i realized, doesent mater what u train, the toughest will always win
yeah, i agree about this guy being weak. im a huge bruce lee fan but this guy(ted wong) doesnt impress me at all. im sure even i could take 20 of his power punches and drop him in one. he seems VERY amateurish to me.
haha you can tell this man was the shit back in the day. he's kinda old so when he does this shit slow motion (for demonstration) his form isn't spectacular. but when he hits at normal speed, damn. that side kick right there is my own deadliest weapon.
its too bad though that this man uses only his right leg. even for demonstration videos you should use both legs.
Yes, Ted Wong is one of the few students that maintains the concept of Bruce Lee, and I underline: concept. It is respectable the opinion from all over the world, logically. It is easy not to see in him Lee's speed, or that of Carruthers, but it is that that speed, accompanied by power, is within reach of very few. But to believe me, the appearances deceive, and a lot, in all.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
pleae note this this guy is actually RETARDING his techniqe by NOT hitting the paper. its PAPER. there is no reason not to hit it. this is a bad teacher. sorry, but its true
your not a fighter cause you would now the paper is there to see if you dont change your distance its not always about hittin with full power like the stupi barfighters
there are no rules in JKD. thats y ppl dont use it in comp/entertainment. and if they try they will fail miserably because of rules and restrictions.
JKD- a nut shot followed by an eye poke then a backfist to the other eye. this is JKD. this is y it dosent work with "rules", on teh street no one is going to say "u cant do this, ur not allowed to break bones or cause life-threatening damage.
KEYWORD- LIFE THREATENING.
A.K.A - JKD.
not ufc n mma. this is all entertainment and glory.
i study jeet kune do, and its one of the styles that is most efficient, i also study wing chung and kali, and i did muay thai before. and jeet kune do, can be used in every style and the philosophies can be applied to all martial arts making ur technique more efficient
see boxing is part of jkd, and yes its good, but when it comes to jkd and kickboxing u cant do shit, at the gym, ive sparred with countless of guys who think they can whoop my ass withboxing, but they get proved wrong, my punches are faster and more powerful, and my technique is more efficient. when i use my kb its way different boxing cant even lay a finger on me. so u tell me. if u try tackle me, ill just knee u in the face tahts all i need to do, u try to punch, ill get ya before u do
dude, you have no idea what you're talking about. a (real) boxer is verry efficient and experienced at boxing (duh).
that u sparred with some boxers and they were less good at it than yourself (or atleast you do think so) doesnt mean shit. It only means they werent good at boxing.
yeah i know that, im not trying to say im good, but i did boxing since i was age 5 till 14 i stopped, cause i had more activities in my hands. and yes its very efficient and all, especially when u add jkd philosophies and principles and its way different. but boxing alone, is not very strong with other styles its good but not the best. u add kicks or other things its an amazing style.
ok man bullshit aside... i think boxing is the most efficient and simple fighting style any other bruce lee type of shit gets way too complicated and overly dramatized... sure it looks pretty with all the kicks and fancy moves, but in a real fight all the kicking and spinning is too predictable and puts u in a vulnerable position. thats why kick KOs are so rare in mma.. nothing like jab, right to the chin, left hook, lights out. as simple as point A to point B. anyway thats just what i think
all thats true but your getting jkd mixed up with the way bruce lee fought in his movies. he even said that he wouldnt kick to the head in a real fight because it takes to long for your leg to get up there. he preferred to use his hands to hit the head as they are naturally more closer. bruce also competed in amateur boxing as a teen and was a huge fan of the sport. nothing about jkd is predictable. if anything, boxing is more predicable as you are limited in tools. jkd = anything goes.
thanks, i try my best to say things i believe to be true...i just have trouble getting my point across sometimes and many people misunderstand what im trying to say.
and i dont know why your name sounds familiar but ive definitely seen it quite a few times before...mustve been here on youtube. we may have talked before or something.
@elmariachidelmal4 Well, if you look at it properly, boxing is a long range style, with a large array of punches.
Though a leg is longer than an arm, isn't it?
Meaning you keep a boxer at bay when you keep him out of range.
Though no hating on boxing, good fighting style, anything can happen in a fight, but keep your options open to kicking, punching, and grappling, because fighting is just that, no rules bout what technique is good or not, its just fighting with what weapons you have,ur body
@GabbysMyKittyRawr Just to clarify boxing is neither long range nor short range. There are inside fighters and outside fighters. outside meaning long range inside meaning close range. I kno theres also body throwers which throw there weight around more but i usually box from the outside so idk much bout the other methods
theres no more to it. toughest wins. unless you are like me and a 26 men rugby team has your back. basterds shit themselves before they lay a finger on me
actually it was me who said that the toughest wins, and yeah you are right, i dont know anything about martial arts, but i have seen a lot of fighting, on and off the ring, and most martial arts, fall short in both. i think you now a bit too much about martial arts, enough to trust them blindly
i think you are confused on what i was trying to say. the better fighter is going to win, regardless of what style they do. put a man who has trained kung fu for one day against a pro boxer(ie- the "better fighter") the kung fu guy is gonna lose because the boxer was "tougher". same goes for the reverse of that.
then youve got normal people from the pub who could take out an expert martial artist. why? they were tougher. its down to the individual person, NOT the martial art.
@Capeau Exactly. It's just like the fight between Muhammad Ali and Sonny Listong. Muhammad Ali won not because he was the toughest, but because he was the fastest.
@Capeau i agree with you on that. I'm on 5' 6" and i am half as fast as my head instructor who is the same height and size as me. my other instructor is twice our size and he cant touch my head instructor because he stays loose and keeps moving.
i will agree boxing is great! especially now a days, cause if u look at old traditional boxing it was too rigid and too openings. but u also have to see that modern boxing is using a lot punching principles from jkd, cause its more efficient. and yes i will agree some of the kicking is predictable, but it also depends on ur speed and when u use them. if im in street fight i will agree, the guy throws a bunch at me ill angle off, left jab, to step in to left cross. then a low kick.
they guys is going to be down. in street fighting, traditional martial arts are bullshit, i do traditional and hybrid. and hybrid is the only way to go, jkd is a hybrid style. compare to traditional, jkd has a big upperhand, and bruce lee made jkd, cause in a street fight he fought it took him 3 mins to beat his opponent, which lead him to develop jkd, cause traditional styles cant compete.
jkd is the one style that inspired everything. and boxing is one of the main parts. boxing is great, but u have to get ur opponent down in a matter of seconds, cause if it takes too long, and the other oppenent, throws kicks or knows some MMA or something, it can be troublesome
So many admired comments! I like JKD and I've seen some good JKD's instructors and some good videos (but I'm not JKD), but this one is terrible. This man is crippled. Especially sidekick is awfull! Compare for example with Carrusers videos. It does not have any value if this man was direct student of Bruce Lee or not, HE IS CRIPPLED!
Like your comment actually carries any weight...This guy was the last man to study under Bruce...If anyone knows what Bruce was working on it would be Ted Wong...Ted wong was Bruce test training partner....and in my opinion he's probably one of the two foremost authority on JKD. The other being Dan Inosanto. Not sure what other JKD videos you saw...but this guy is very much legit and good.
Must it covince me that he is good? Excuse me, I trust my eyes! As I remembr namely Bruce was one of those people who said that one must see things directly, not through a veil of authoritative opinions.
It's vintage and that's what makes it special. But there is not anything new here. I was a sport fighter in full contact karate and in judo. I learned more from fighting in tournaments than I did in the dojo. I learned even more from my days of back yard boxing and kick boxing with fellow fighters. This is the way to go. Get used to the hits and throws to the ground you won't go into shock when it happens in real life.
that is a 5 STAR video.. excellent basic work...if you can master what is being shown in the video... then you have vastly increased your odds of winning against an aggressor
i luv the old school commentry. none of the coloured floral bullshit we have today just no nonsense straight to the point directness here, like the sidekick. gud vid, thnx for posting :)
How many JKD instructors can punch and kick like Ted Wong? Not any of the first generation at least. Im so glad to have the opportunity to study under one of Teds students.
u guys cant forget bruce used jeet kun do in a crazy way cause he was the founder dont forget the brain behind the body that he was using.guy was smooth as silk cool as a fan or a.c
Missing a thrusting side kick results the same as missing a Mui-Tai flying knee, it leaves you open. Every style has risky moves.
To attack is to leave yourself at least somewhat vulnerable. Power strikes leave you the most vulnerable, but they are an essential part of combat strategy.
Whenever I try to practice the punch, and twist my hips before my shoulders; I can feel tension in my knees because my hips are twisting but my feet are planted. Any advise?
your rear foot should not be planted fixed, first, the rear foot should twist outward up on its toes. there should be no problem with the front foot if your fighing stance is correct.
Either that, or you just watch instruction vids on youtube. all stances are pretty much the same. except that in jeet kune do you use your strong arm as front, since the front arm is used more Bruce thought it made more sense that you jab with the strongest arm since the jab is used more. My best advice is to learn from a instructor though, then you'll be taught thouroughly ^^ best of luck mate!
JUST punch someone in the throat, do u seriously think its that simple, like your opponent is just gonna stand there and let you take a shot at him. combat weather M/A self trained or otherwise, is technique u dont just go and hit someone ppl are punching bags they move and have minds of their own so unless your a 6 ft 8 inch 200 lbs wall of muscle "just" punching someone is not a bright idea
Because its stupid to do that if the punch is weak and easily block able. Simply just throwing punches is sloppy and leaves too many openings during a real fight. Also punching with your hips is extremely effective when done properly.
hands move in slow motion.

@elmariachidelmal4 dude... do u realize that this is JKD... boxing has more form for punches but this is Bruce Lee's martial art.. there was twistin in the wrists.. and even tho he lets his guard down, with correct and strict training, his speed should be quick enough to block or dodge.. and an average boxer doesn't do kicks... so while u think that boxing is better... and practitioner of JKD could most likely beat a boxer in a fight

normaly i would argue wit u and defend boxing, but.... yesterday i found out about an old friend that got beat up pretty badly, my friend is a black betlt TKD and competes nationaly, and he was almost killed by an average joe outside a club.... so i realized, doesent mater what u train, the toughest will always win

yeah, i agree about this guy being weak. im a huge bruce lee fan but this guy(ted wong) doesnt impress me at all. im sure even i could take 20 of his power punches and drop him in one. he seems VERY amateurish to me.
skemeB34 2 years ago
haha you can tell this man was the shit back in the day. he's kinda old so when he does this shit slow motion (for demonstration) his form isn't spectacular. but when he hits at normal speed, damn. that side kick right there is my own deadliest weapon.
its too bad though that this man uses only his right leg. even for demonstration videos you should use both legs.
cool shit either way.

Yes, Ted Wong is one of the few students that maintains the concept of Bruce Lee, and I underline: concept. It is respectable the opinion from all over the world, logically. It is easy not to see in him Lee's speed, or that of Carruthers, but it is that that speed, accompanied by power, is within reach of very few. But to believe me, the appearances deceive, and a lot, in all.

there are no rules in JKD. thats y ppl dont use it in comp/entertainment. and if they try they will fail miserably because of rules and restrictions.
JKD- a nut shot followed by an eye poke then a backfist to the other eye. this is JKD. this is y it dosent work with "rules", on teh street no one is going to say "u cant do this, ur not allowed to break bones or cause life-threatening damage.
KEYWORD- LIFE THREATENING.

see boxing is part of jkd, and yes its good, but when it comes to jkd and kickboxing u cant do shit, at the gym, ive sparred with countless of guys who think they can whoop my ass withboxing, but they get proved wrong, my punches are faster and more powerful, and my technique is more efficient. when i use my kb its way different boxing cant even lay a finger on me. so u tell me. if u try tackle me, ill just knee u in the face tahts all i need to do, u try to punch, ill get ya before u do
bestdrummer1991 2 years ago
dude, you have no idea what you're talking about. a (real) boxer is verry efficient and experienced at boxing (duh).
that u sparred with some boxers and they were less good at it than yourself (or atleast you do think so) doesnt mean shit. It only means they werent good at boxing.
Capeau 2 years ago
yeah i know that, im not trying to say im good, but i did boxing since i was age 5 till 14 i stopped, cause i had more activities in my hands. and yes its very efficient and all, especially when u add jkd philosophies and principles and its way different. but boxing alone, is not very strong with other styles its good but not the best. u add kicks or other things its an amazing style.
bestdrummer1991 2 years ago
ok man bullshit aside... i think boxing is the most efficient and simple fighting style any other bruce lee type of shit gets way too complicated and overly dramatized... sure it looks pretty with all the kicks and fancy moves, but in a real fight all the kicking and spinning is too predictable and puts u in a vulnerable position. thats why kick KOs are so rare in mma.. nothing like jab, right to the chin, left hook, lights out. as simple as point A to point B. anyway thats just what i think
elmariachidelmal4 2 years ago
all thats true but your getting jkd mixed up with the way bruce lee fought in his movies. he even said that he wouldnt kick to the head in a real fight because it takes to long for your leg to get up there. he preferred to use his hands to hit the head as they are naturally more closer. bruce also competed in amateur boxing as a teen and was a huge fan of the sport. nothing about jkd is predictable. if anything, boxing is more predicable as you are limited in tools. jkd = anything goes.

bestdrummer1991 1 year ago
@elmariachidelmal4 Well, if you look at it properly, boxing is a long range style, with a large array of punches.
Though a leg is longer than an arm, isn't it?
Meaning you keep a boxer at bay when you keep him out of range.
Though no hating on boxing, good fighting style, anything can happen in a fight, but keep your options open to kicking, punching, and grappling, because fighting is just that, no rules bout what technique is good or not, its just fighting with what weapons you have,ur body
GabbysMyKittyRawr 1 year ago 10
@GabbysMyKittyRawr Just to clarify boxing is neither long range nor short range. There are inside fighters and outside fighters. outside meaning long range inside meaning close range. I kno theres also body throwers which throw there weight around more but i usually box from the outside so idk much bout the other methods

i think you are confused on what i was trying to say. the better fighter is going to win, regardless of what style they do. put a man who has trained kung fu for one day against a pro boxer(ie- the "better fighter") the kung fu guy is gonna lose because the boxer was "tougher". same goes for the reverse of that.
then youve got normal people from the pub who could take out an expert martial artist. why? they were tougher. its down to the individual person, NOT the martial art.

you are sooo confused on what im trying to say...and i think a few others are too.
let me try to make it as simple as i can -
THE TOUGHEST GUY IS GOING TO WIN AND THE WEAKER GUY IS GOING TO LOSE!!!
and when i say "tougher", i mean smarter, faster, stronger, more experienced etc.
when i say "weaker", i mean the opposite of those above.
its not like in the movies where a weak guy will win just because he is "the good guy" and practiced karate for 2 weeks.
get real.

elmariachidelmal4 2 years ago
i will agree boxing is great! especially now a days, cause if u look at old traditional boxing it was too rigid and too openings. but u also have to see that modern boxing is using a lot punching principles from jkd, cause its more efficient. and yes i will agree some of the kicking is predictable, but it also depends on ur speed and when u use them. if im in street fight i will agree, the guy throws a bunch at me ill angle off, left jab, to step in to left cross. then a low kick.
bestdrummer1991 2 years ago
they guys is going to be down. in street fighting, traditional martial arts are bullshit, i do traditional and hybrid. and hybrid is the only way to go, jkd is a hybrid style. compare to traditional, jkd has a big upperhand, and bruce lee made jkd, cause in a street fight he fought it took him 3 mins to beat his opponent, which lead him to develop jkd, cause traditional styles cant compete.
bestdrummer1991 2 years ago
jkd is the one style that inspired everything. and boxing is one of the main parts. boxing is great, but u have to get ur opponent down in a matter of seconds, cause if it takes too long, and the other oppenent, throws kicks or knows some MMA or something, it can be troublesome

Like your comment actually carries any weight...This guy was the last man to study under Bruce...If anyone knows what Bruce was working on it would be Ted Wong...Ted wong was Bruce test training partner....and in my opinion he's probably one of the two foremost authority on JKD. The other being Dan Inosanto. Not sure what other JKD videos you saw...but this guy is very much legit and good.

Must it covince me that he is good? Excuse me, I trust my eyes! As I remembr namely Bruce was one of those people who said that one must see things directly, not through a veil of authoritative opinions.

It's vintage and that's what makes it special. But there is not anything new here. I was a sport fighter in full contact karate and in judo. I learned more from fighting in tournaments than I did in the dojo. I learned even more from my days of back yard boxing and kick boxing with fellow fighters. This is the way to go. Get used to the hits and throws to the ground you won't go into shock when it happens in real life.

Backyardninja76 2 years ago
Missing a thrusting side kick results the same as missing a Mui-Tai flying knee, it leaves you open. Every style has risky moves.
To attack is to leave yourself at least somewhat vulnerable. Power strikes leave you the most vulnerable, but they are an essential part of combat strategy.

your rear foot should not be planted fixed, first, the rear foot should twist outward up on its toes. there should be no problem with the front foot if your fighing stance is correct.

Alright, thanks. Then I suppose, to learn a correct stance, I just read Lee's Tao of Jeet Kune Do?

think of piviting like baseball or golf swinging
foesublime 2 years ago 2
Either that, or you just watch instruction vids on youtube. all stances are pretty much the same. except that in jeet kune do you use your strong arm as front, since the front arm is used more Bruce thought it made more sense that you jab with the strongest arm since the jab is used more. My best advice is to learn from a instructor though, then you'll be taught thouroughly ^^ best of luck mate!

JUST punch someone in the throat, do u seriously think its that simple, like your opponent is just gonna stand there and let you take a shot at him. combat weather M/A self trained or otherwise, is technique u dont just go and hit someone ppl are punching bags they move and have minds of their own so unless your a 6 ft 8 inch 200 lbs wall of muscle "just" punching someone is not a bright idea

Because its stupid to do that if the punch is weak and easily block able. Simply just throwing punches is sloppy and leaves too many openings during a real fight. Also punching with your hips is extremely effective when done properly.
