Book excerpt: Although much has been written about Jeet Kune Do, the art of Bruce Lee remains an enigma, spawning endless debate about what constitutes the art and how it should be taught and applied. "Understanding Jeet Kune Do" is vastly different from the books on Bruce Lee's martial art that have preceded it, offering a fresh and simple look at the mystery that is Jeet Kune Do. In "Understanding Jeet Kune Do," author Jason Korol demonstrates: -that Jeet Kune Do is the science of self-defense - not a mere concept or, for that matter, just a conglomeration of other arts. -what the basis for a rationally consistent method of self-defense is and how Bruce Lee's Jeet Kune Do is consistent with that method. -a logically consistent definition of self-defense and explore its ethical, technical, and strategic corollaries. -why certain aspects of Lee's Jeet Kune Do must be taught as is - as the foundation of the method - or else it ceases to be Jeet Kune Do. "Understanding Jeet Kune Do" will have a unique appeal to Jeet Kune Do enthusiasts and the average martial artist that wants to gain a better understanding about the art of Jeet Kune Do.

Book excerpt: Apply the combat science of Bruce Lee's revolutionary martial art! This martial arts manual describes his research into the how and why of Jeet Kune Do techniques. Bruce Lee wrote of "three stages of cultivation" that lie along the path to JKD mastery: The Stage of Innocence—this is the level of the absolute beginner. The Stage of Art—the student is immersed in the process of technical and physical training. The Stage of Artlessness—the stage of "highest art" in which the body is no longer hindered by the mind. As Bruce Lee would say, "It hits all by itself." To reach the final stage, the student must progress methodically through the Stage of Art—there are no shortcuts! Author Teri Tom guides you on this journey by revealing the science behind the moves in Jeet Kune Do repertoire. You'll learn how to protect yourself from injury, and maximize the effectiveness of the following core techniques and their variations: Straight Lead; Rear Cross; Hook; Uppercut; Straight Kick; Hook Kick; Side Kick; and Spinning Back Kick.

Download or read book Jeet Kune Do written by Dave Carnell and published by Crowood Press (UK). This book was released on 2008 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jeet Kune Do [JKD], which transalates as 'the way of the intercepting fist', was developed over a number of years by Bruce Lee as an anti-thesis to what he saw as the formulaic straightjacket of the classical martial arts which, he argued, failed to allow individuals to fully and honestly express themselves. However, as Cass Magda points out in his Foreword, JKD is definitely not a 'do-it-yourself' martial art and it does have a unique structure. Indeed, it is essential for the JKD fighter to master this structure if he, or she, is to present a highly organized defence and mount an instantaneous and effective counter-attack. AUTHOR: Dave Carnell is the owner and Director of Impact Martial Arts Academy in Stoke-on-Trent, England, which has several branches throughout the country. Dave is a much sought after instructor who teaches in the United Kingdom, elsewhere in Europe, and in the United States. Dave is a Senior Full Instructor for Cass Magda's MI Association and is Supervising Instructor for the United Kingdom. ILLUSTRATIONS: 350 photographs
Download or read book Bruce Lee Jeet Kune Do written by Bruce Lee and published by . This book was released on 2020-09 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bruce Lee Jeet Kune Do is the iconic book presenting the martial art created by Bruce Lee as explained in the master's own words. In 1970, Bruce Lee suffered a back injury that confined him to bed. Rather than allowing this to slow his growth as a martial artist, he read feverishly on Eastern philosophy and Western psychology and self help books, constructing his own views on the totality of combat and life. It was during this time that Lee wrote 7 volumes containing his thoughts, ideas, opinions, and research into the art of unarmed combat, and how it applies to the everyday life. Some of this material was posthumously published in 1975, but much more existed. This landmark book serves as a more complete presentation of Bruce Lee's notes on his art of Jeet Kune Do. The development of his unique martial art form, its principles, core techniques, and lesson plans are presented here in Lee's own words. It also features Lee's illustrative sketches and his remarkable treatise on the nature of combat, success through martial arts, and the importance of a positive mental attitude in training. In addition, there are a series of "Questions Every Martial Artist Must Ask Himself," that Lee posed to himself and intended to explore as part of his own development, but never lived to complete. Jeet Kune Do: A Comprehensive Guide to Bruce Lee's Martial Way is a book every Bruce Lee fan must have.

Book excerpt: "The straight punch is the core of Jeet Kune Do."—Bruce Lee The straight lead was a key element in Bruce Lee's development of his own personal style. It was designed to be uncomplicated, economical, and brutally effective but is not as simple as it might seem. Bruce Lee once described it the most difficult move in the Jeet Kune Do arsenal. Lee developed JKD as a response to the shortcomings he found in traditional martial arts, but it also includes elements of Western combat systems that he found effective. It incorporates contributions ranging from Jack Dempsey's approach to boxing to the fencing style of Aldo Nadi. In The Straight Lead: The Core of Bruce Lee's Jun Fan Jeet Kune Do, author Teri Tom describes the development of the straight punch in Western martial arts and describes Bruce Lee's refinement of the technique. It also offers a thorough instruction in the complexity and power of the move—showing martial artists of any discipline how to incorporate this devastating attack into their repertoire. With forewords by Shannon Lee Keasler and Ted Wong, chapters include: A Brief History of Straight Punching Evolution of Jeet Kune Do's Straight Lead The Stance Mechanics of the Straight Lead Footwork Why the Straight Lead?
