Look for a good Jeet Kune Do school also. You'll learn a lot of stuff. "You need people like me so you can point your fuckin' fingers and say, "That's the bad guy." "

I took judo. I didn't really like it due to the amount of floor work involved. However, it's somewhat practical considering that more than 1/2 the fights end up on the floor. | |

What most schools teach as JKD nowadays is a joke.Very few of Bruce's students knew what he was talking about and a lot have been riding on the name JKD for a long time.Most of what is being taught as JKD today is wht Bruce was against:it's become formal and stylized. With the exception of Joe Lewis,Dan Inosanto and Paul Vunak there 's hardly anyone out there qualified to teach JKD.JKD is a PROCESS not a system.What people don't understand is that you have to find a base in martial arts,be it wing chun or jiu jitsu, and then go out (and thru trial and error) find YOUR OWN TRUTH-the common denominator of all combative arts.From there you can add what is uniquely your own and be able to fully express yourself as a fighter.JKD is about daily DECREASE,not increase.In fact ,a true JKD man doesn't even refer to himself as one.That defeats the whole purpose of it. If you wanna see a perfect exmple of a JKD man today look no further than Tommy Carruthers. "a man without enemies is a man without movement." | |

I need help here.
After being given the names of the different types of martial arts, I tried to go on the internet and look for information. But to the sites I have visited for different types, none have been useful. So can anyone tell me exactly what I should look for when I go through these websites! The history? techniques? I mean...I am sooo lost. It's all GENERAL information. | |

Dan Inosanto comes to my JKD school once or twice a year to give seminars. That man is no joke, he handles his business. "You need people like me so you can point your fuckin' fingers and say, "That's the bad guy." "
