This is one of the JKD punches which is based on the scientific body mechanic structure in Jeet Kune Do JKD punching which is originally from Giant Martial Artist Bruce Lee. He wrote his MArts' ideas in book (actually the book was published by his wife), and even drew hand-writting pictures for explanation.
This is only an instructional demo as a reference. Mine is not good enough even worst. But, My strength is not from the contraction of muscles only as other Kuens'styles. I am using the basic force from the universe - centrifugal force 離心力.The force is the same as throwing iron-ball's game in Olympic Games. The finger's bone, the fist's bone is the iron-ball; the wrist, forearm,elbow, arm, shoulder is the iron-chain; the force is coming from turning round promptly the centre of gavity-united with the turning of feet toes, knees, hip, breast and backbone. This is science, not any kind of styles. Please enjoy my relax demo. Great Master Bruce Lee wrote his MArt's thinking, ideas and concepts in hospital, and the information he left was not so thorough to express his great skills. But, he demonstrated his great skills in Hong Kong Television shows. He even taught us how to punch through 'suppressing coiled spring turning horse (the legs,hip,waist united)'; how to kick with the hip's force in one TV show. It is not easy to perform powerful punching or kicking with relaxation the muscles thoroughly. The quality of the joints themselves such as wrist, elbow should be excellent. Otherwise, hurt happens. Just observing Master's shoulders' and elbows' joints which were especially strong because of balancing the centrifugal force in Punching, U will know I am telling the truth. So that, we can make use of Centrifugal punches and muscles-contraction leverage punches alltogether.

Salute!Salute!Salute!
Great Grand Master Bruce Lee
Year 2008 Grand Master 35 years anniverary. Your Spirit still alive!! Master. You havn't left us any moment *v* ..

  • hahahahahaha hes slapping the air like a bitch

  • Your punch is too circular. There should be an arc return on the way back. But when it goes out, it must be completely straight. I firmly believe that anyone doing JKD should start with Wing Chun first. It will give you the foundation. All of Bruce's JKD principles will make sense. That's how Bruce taught it himself. You had to learn Jun Fan (modified Wing Chun) before you could learn JKD. Practice lots of straight blast using paper target and wallbag filled with rice or beans for power.

  • ''catching a house fly'' a better title for this video 

  • Poor form and disgraceful. When punching who head is that high.

    He spends more time shaking out his body then he does doing his crappy hits.

    He looks like he's doing a crappy dance or something.

    I want to face him and counter it with JKD and say see maybe you should learn more before you attempt to teach it.

    FAIL!!!!!

  • In JKD, if its for speed. The body mechanics are backwards. The hand leaves first. Bruce classified this as The Hammer Principle.

  • you move too much whit the hips. 1.foot.2.hips.3.shoulder not 132 ....---Peace

  • The philosophy of JKD is for it to be persoanl for everyone like a tailored suit, as burce said the fastest distance between two objects is a direct route, therefore training poor form is not logical and must be rejected. Of crouse you do not want to limit yourself, that said poor technuiqe as demonstrated is limiting the practioner in achieveing maximum effeciency somethig that is counter intuitive to JKD. As bruce said "adapt what is useful, reject what is useless".

  • what????!!!

    

  • Wen Bruce punch, he puts his hip and waist into it, and snap it....which generates an large amount of energy to the target...

  • what a shame

  • nhìn như đàn bà ấy

  • u trying to catch a fly? lol
