What is Jeet Kune Do??
JEET KUNE DO was founded by the late Bruce Lee and self discovery is what Bruce Lee wanted to say about Jeet Kune Do.
The philosophies, concepts and training methods of Bruce Lee's Jeet Kune Do, a devastating combination of speed, power and deception. (Jeet Kune Do stands alone as today’s only non-classical form of Chinese Kung Fu). Jeet Kune Do is scientific streetfighting for self defense. There is no "Sport" aspects no "Set Patterns nor Forms". JKD is based on Simplicity, Economy of Motion and Intercepting Emotional Intent.
Jeet Kune Do is not to hurt, but is one of the avenues through which life opens its secrets to us. We can see through others only when we can see through ourselves and Jeet Kune Do is a step toward knowing ones self.
Self-knowledge is the basis of Jeet Kune Do because it is effective, not only for the individual's martial art, but also for his life as a human being.
Learning Jeet Kune Do is not a matter of seeking knowledge or accumulating stylized pattern, but is discovering the cause of ignorance.
"If people say Jeet Kune Do is different from "this" or from "that," then let the name of Jeet Kune Do be wiped out, for that is what it is, just a name. Please don't fuss over it",
Bruce Lee (Tao Of Jeet Kune Do).
This is the philosophy of Jeet Kune Do Way of The Intercepting Fist.
