Book excerpt: No individual has influenced modern martial arts more than Bruce Lee and his legend lives on through the teachings of his own art, Jeet Kune Do. Lee believed martial arts had become too rigid and unfit for real-world encounters. Combat is spontaneous and unpredictable with the victor being the one who moved fluidly to any given situation and was able to adjust accordingly. Unlike many other martial arts, JKD does not have fixed patterns of movement. It has simple techniques that are easy to learn and master, but are adaptable in the chaos of a street battle. Minimal movement with maximum effect. JKD is also a philosophy, with guiding thoughts on how to approach life and wellbeing, how to treat others and how to be a positive influence. Physical and emotional fitness and improving self-confidence are at its core - and is suited equally to a beginner or seasoned martial artist. Renowned instructor Martin O'Neill has been studying JKD and martial arts for more than four decades and has real-life experience of using his training effectively in combatant situations as well as in the gym. In his first book - The Jeet Kune Do Mindset: Martial Arts Ways For A Better Life - Martin takes readers on a step-by-step introduction to JKD including its ethos, mentality, and a guide to the basic JKD techniques of self-defence. He also offers advice on training, being mentally prepared and shares a detailed 12-week work-out programme. Interspersed with anecdotes from his youth growing up in Northern Ireland during The Troubles to his days working as a bouncer and within social care, Martin shows how martial arts can lead you to improved physical and mental wellbeing, and to have a better life. Start your journey and become a happy warrior.
