What is Jeet Kune Do?
Jeet Kune Do or "Way of the Intercepting Fist", was created by Bruce Lee and may be classified as a modern form of Chinese-American martial art. Although JKD's primary influences are Wing Chun, Western fencing and Western boxing, JKD is more accurately, "Bruce Lee's martial art". JKD is simple, direct and functional. JKD is primarily a striking art that includes refined trapping and grappling to facilitate striking. JKD is about space/time mastery and is based on its sound structure and super mobility.

(JKD) Bruce Lee's MA is about dynamic and explosive footwork that can be applied to enhance your stand up game regardless of your background. JKD at it's highest level is about delivery and avoidance with emphasis "in delivery" on full body weight, mass accelerated movement and recovery! While most people know JKD as a blend of many styles, in reality it is Bruce's application of geometry, physics and kinesiology in the realm of effective Stand Up Fighting.
