The Tao of Jeet Kune Do Bruce Lee had a solid martial training. His father , Li Hoi- chen , was first introduced to Tai Chi Chuan . Then comes the discovery of Wing Chun (Wing Tsun ) with sifu Yip Man. Located in the USA, Bruce opened a school in Seattle and another in Oakland. Without awareness , Bruce experiencing some difficulties. In the early days of 1965 , Bruce must fight a champion sent by the old masters of Chinese schools in San Francisco. The challenge is simple: if the Little Dragon loses the fight , he agrees not to teach Kung Fu to non- Chinese. Bruce gets the submission of the champion after a clash of three minutes. Although victorious, the young master is disappointed by his performance . He believed himself capable of a KO opponent in seconds . More after the fight, he is breathless . It is this misadventure that will lead Lee to question the traditional teaching . Bruce Lee was the kung fu in general positions were frozen too , that martial arts had not evolved much since their inception, they embarrassed unnecessary aesthetics. He often that he disapproved of the principle in traditional models stored such as Tao or Kata forms. Bruce decides to create his own martial concept ( he hated the idea of martial style) . personally , he said one day, I do not think the word style . Not so much that there are no human beings with three arms and four legs, there will be different styles of fights when there will be a category of human whose body is different from ours .. . The trouble is that there is boxing , which uses hands, judo , where is the imbalance , etc. . I do not reject any of this . All I m trying to explain is that these are the styles that separate people . When you practice a Japanese style, can express a Japanese style , not yourself. We must ask the question : how to express myself ? When you start a punch , you should be entirely in this one. The idea of Bruce Lee was to create a method of combat that is unique and effective. He started for it to make a synthesis of several martial art style: fist techniques of Wing Chun ; kicks Jing Wu and Hapkido , the side guard borrowed from Joe Lewis , hopping movements of Mohamed Ali. Jeet Kune Do take particular of judo, savate , the boxing ... The concept of Bruce Lee, was not intended to add techniques to each other to form a system , but each filter arts in order to extract the best techniques . Bruce art are compared to that of a sculptor removing clay, refining , purifying his work at the maximum , to get the gist . This result was then the basis of Jeet Kune Do (way of the intercepting fist ) JKD in its later phases was strongly influenced by western boxing ( backbone concepts such as center line , four doors, vertical punch , the right breath, incoming and come forward pressure Wing Chun ) . But Lee has stopped using certain positions he had learned Wing Chun , for new Western positions that better protects the practitioner. Jeet kune do current varies two main currents .... The Original / Jun Fan JKD branch Wong , Taky Kimura taught by Ted , Tim Tackett and Jerry Poteet , who were themselves students of Bruce Lee. The JKD Concepts branch, parDan taught Inosanto , Richard Bustillo, Larry Hartsell , Paul Vunak and Burton Richardson, who continued to develop Jeet Kune Do, under the philosophy that Jeet Kune Do is never frozen and that it is constantly changing. This branch has incorporated elements of martial arts Filipins , Escrima , Silat , Muay Thai, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu , and elements full of other martial arts. Principles of Jeet Kune do Jeet Kune Do is a martial art, it is a study of life everyday ! Speed : As the Cobra, your shot must be felt before being seen . Vigilance : You must be like the basketball player who seems to know where everyone on the team is placed and always open ... Energy: It is like a stream , which must be channeling ( it is called Chi in China and Ki in Japan). Chi Sao ( came from Wing Chun ) is a good exercise to learn to master this exercise ... The art of the intercepting fist does not have properly - called formal techniques. it is a product of instinct and now , he changed aspects to fit the capacity of its practitioner, and his opponent. For example , Lee almost always chose to put his hand to the most powerful , with his weaker hand back, so he almost always used the right position of modern boxing. He called this position on guard . Lee incorporated this position to his JKD as he felt that it provided the best overall mobility. Lee believed that the dominant hand or higher should be before , because it would perform a greater percentage of work. It minimizes the use of other positions , except when circumstances demand. Although On -Guard position is a good overall position , it is by no means the only one. Lee acknowledged that there were times when other guards should be used. He believed that this dynamic property of JKD is what allows its practitioners to adapt to changes and constant fluctuations in the fight. Lee believed that these decisions should be snuff in the context of real combat . He believed that it was only in this environment that a person might actually consider adopting a technique. Bruce has been in the past stopped by an opponent , who asked him if he would do if he were in the situation of a real fight . Lee replied, I would bite you, of course . One of the theories of jeet kune do is a fighter must do what it needs to defend itself , apart from some martial arts techniques learned. So for the JKD Bruce idea in one sentence : All shots are allowed . Therefore, Jeet Kune Do is currently seen as the genesis of modern hybrid martial arts ( Freefight , Krav Maga ... ) . 4 points of Jeet Kune Do I) Be like water JKD students reject traditional systems of training, fighting styles and teaching of Confucius used in traditional kung fu schools . JKD claims to be a dynamic concept that is forever changing . Absorb what is useful ; Disregard that which is useless is a maxim often quoted by Bruce Lee. JKD students are encouraged to explore every possible form of combat. II ) Economy Movement Students should avoid JKD up wasting time or energy . During a fight , JKD practitioners believe that using simple techniques is favorable. A. Stop beating and stop breakouts This means stop the attack of an opponent with your own attacks instead of a single block. JKD practitioners say that this is the most difficult defensive skill to develop . This strategy can be a feature of some traditional Chinese martial arts. B. Trim and drill simultaneously In response to an incoming attack, the attack is parried and generates attack against the same time. Not as advanced as a stop and knock: But more effective than blocking and cons -attack one after another. This is also practiced by some Chinese martial arts. C. No attacks feet high JKD practitioners must limit their attacks to feet lower parts of their opponent : the knees, thighs, and mid section . These targets are closest to the foot , and thus provide greater stability . III) Learn the 4 combat distances Kicking ( Kicking Range) Punches ( Punching Range) Trap arm ( Trap Range) Keys, chokes and ground fighting (Joint Locking and Grappling Range) IV ) Three criteria JKD According to practitioners of Jeet Kune Do techniques must contain these criteria Efficiency - An attack that reaches its target Directness - Doing what comes instinctively intelligently. Simplicity - Thinking in an uncomplicated Manner , without superfluous. 5 ways to jeet kune do attacks 1) Attack In Simple Angle ( ASA ) & Single Attack (AA) The simple attack and its inverse , simple direct attack represents the ultimate in sophistication JKD . To be effective, they require the greatest speed and fitness. There are actually two types of PAC. With a constant rate, the other with broken rhythm. What is applied is determined , naturally , by his opponent. It is often placed with an adjustment of the distance from the footwork . Studied the direct and simple fleeing attack. ASA is focused on opponent does not cover lines (or not enough) . 2) The attack locked hand (AIM) The attack with immobilization (immobilization of the leg hair and attack blocking head ) plays an important role in the fight greatly limiting the number of opponents attack while providing a safety zone where we can throw shots . Attacks with immobilization can be prepared by using one of the other four channels attacks and seizures run alone or in combination . Stay on the lookout for possible stop beating your opponent ; Limit the possibilities by reducing the distance ; A feint before immobilization is recommended to double the safety and success of the action; Soyer ready to blows in the corner when your moves ; A feint before immobilization is recommended to double the safety and success of the action; (Editors note : Bruce practical AIM by the hair on Jackie Chan in Enter the Dragon ) 3) progressive indirect attack (API) The progressive indirect attack is preceded by a feint or strike without real commitment that aims to confuse the actions or reactions of the opponent , in order to obtain an open or save some time and space to hit . The API is used against an opponent with a tight defense and fast enough to play a single attack (AA). The progressive attack is based on pretense. Feint is to lead the adversary to execute a parry or block. feigned movements based on two , sometimes three , but no more . Feints must integrate with flexibility in the continuous Flört action. sham must be long relied ( penetrating ) forcing the opponent to parry and the second movement should be quick and decisive , leaving no recour the opponent . Gain distance: To shorten the distance , the hand should be half way through the first feint . the second half will be left in the second distantce movement . This is so called progressive attack. Save time: By forcing you to prepare It was while the arm of the opponent follows its path to one side, up , down etc, you have to start your own offensive action. This means that for a time his defense will be oriented in a direction opposite to the one you borrowed direction. Reverse conséquant it is a clearance . Except in rare cases , all movements must be made as short as possible, this is necessary , and the last movement of the final deflection of the impactor, to encourage each other to respond. Similarly clearances shall be performed very close to the opponents hand. The A. I.P. with the most effective leg is based on the rhythm one / half A : The first attack is sudden and economical while being deep , safe in terms of protection and very stable. Make a distinction between the actuation to find the maximum power (with a rear hook for example) and put into action for a straight hit . ONE - HALF : The second half attack will be a quick and powerful foot shall not require too much out of the guard position , once the melee began . 4) The attack in combination This is a series of keystrokes that flow naturally , usually on different lines . Attacks in combinations are usually organized into fixed structures . By fixed structures means that this series of kicks or punches exéecutés by natural sequences , the goal is to get the opponent in that particular position or create such an opening that will allow the final hit of the series to find a vulnerable target . Combinations set the opponent in a particular attitude conducive to a knockout made by the last strike with the fist or foot. The difference between the expert and the novice in the art of combat lies in the fact that the expert will be able to use every opportunity to step into each opening. He felt his constantly sensible intuition , his powerful aura , his dominant pace. He delivers his blows in a well-proven tactics, each opening causing the next, until the final hit perfect . It is clear that some are more specifically strikes blows pageflow , in the sense that they are almost always introduced by direct . For example, the straight left is often introduced by a right jab , right hook while frequently follows the straight left . There is a natural logic to start throwing strikes straight to go through the following curves strikes , so it is natural to strike first in the head before he engages strikes to the body. Combinations of attacks, strikes chained , are governed by the feel and pace. The pace of strikes is a key factor of boxing . Triple chaining is quite common in AC He runs after a shift outwards or inwards and often has two shots to the body followed by a blow to the face . The first two shots will lower the opponents guard and create the conditions for the final strike. Another remarkable version of this triple combination chaining might be called triple insured . This tripled provided is as a series of strokes that run on a specific rhythm with alternating at the target, the first body , the second head or vice versa. It is also important to remember that the last shot must hit the same place as the first. If the first strike was on the jaw, the last hit must be on the jaw. Being confronted with the infinite variety of possible ways these combinations and be able to change lanes during the execution itself. 5) The Defiant attack (AP) The attack is an attack or provocation against an attack based on a lure as a commitment with an apparent opening or carried in a seemingly predictable and minutable movement , it will be attempted to control or counteract . This attack can be combined with the previous four systems. Studied the art of rhythm and the eight basic positions . It is often best, when possible , to encourage the opponent to come forward before trying to hit back . By forcing them to engage in a clearly decided not forward it becomes predictable. It is then possible to have a clear vision of what he does, what he wants to do, it is revealed. This commitment deprives ease and speed of maneuver in its positions and guard enough to become vulnerable and he could not successfully react to offensive . Any attempt to strike an opponent will , or should, have an opening. More importantly , more than anything else can be , this is the great strength that can benefit because the energy of one who is against the combined action of the opponent. It must be remembered that the secret harsh strikes rests in a few words : accuracy rate, accuracy of movements and mental commitment. Must keep its vigilance and stability for offensive action immediately following the attack, the latter being caused by the apparent openness , because we are forced ( by an entry in the distance , with or without immobilization fast or slow ) or faking an attack that tries to counter. Some targets of the human body In its quest for efficiency founder of Jeet kune do , evaluated target the body that helps to neutralize the opponent as quickly as possible . these targets are: the eyes, the nose, the gorge and the temple , or better yet genitals. If this is only a small previews of vital points! Quotes Bruce Lee Jeet Kune Do We must clear his mind , be formless , shapeless - like water . - Must be able to adapt : the situation, an adversary ....
