Jeet Kune Do Backfists Explained by Tim Tackett

http://www.blackbeltmag.com?video=1 In the book Chinatown Jeet Kune Do: Essential Elements of Bruce Lee's Martial Art, authors Tim Tackett and Bob Bremer (who studied directly under Bruce Lee) delineate the technical details of an array of jeet kune do techniques — including the JKD backfist, which Tackett demonstrates in this excerpt from his companion DVD for the book.

The video is an excerpt from the book's companion DVD, also titled Chinatown Jeet Kune Do: Essential Elements of Bruce Lee's Martial Art. It features live-action demonstrations of the ideas presented in the book, organized in parallel structure for easy reference — but it also features an on-screen guide to chapters and pages in the book that further illustrate and explain what Tackett and his partners are demonstrating in the video. This makes for a true martial arts multimedia experience and a powerful educational tool from which jeet kune do students of all experience levels can benefit!
