Hello Jeremiah,
The Phase I program is a 40 lesson course on JKD fundamentals and takes you through a natural progression. This part of the program can be completed without a partner.
Most classical martial arts training is a mere imitative repetition a product and individuality is lost. Jeet Kune Do.The BLAST was built on the ideals of Jeet Kune Do JKD an art where no way is way and is an academy focused on functional martial arts.
I am interested in learning JKD. Do you have any DVD’s to learn from cause I live in the Bay Aeara.
Gostaria de aprender JKD, poderia me enviar vídeos com aulas progressivas!
One of the premises that Bruce Lee incorporated in Jeet Kune Do was “combat realism”. He insisted that martial arts techniques should be incorporated based upon their effectiveness in real combat situations. This would differentiate JKD from other systems where there was an emphasis on “flowery technique” as Lee would put it. Lee claimed that flashy “flowery techniques” would arguably “look good” but were often not practical or prove ineffective in street survival and self-defense situations. This premise would differentiate JKD from other “sport” oriented martial arts systems that were geared towards “tournament” or “point systems”. Lee felt that these systems were “artificial” and fooled its practitioners into a false sense of true martial skill. Lee felt that because these systems favored a “sports” approach they incorporated too many rule sets that would ultimately handicap a practitioner in self defense situations. He felt that this approach to martial arts became a “game of tag” which would lead to bad habits such as pulling punches and other attacks; this would again lead to disastrous consequences in real world situations. Because of this perspective Lee utilized safety gear from various other contact sports to allow him to spar with opponents “full out”. This approach to training allowed practitioners to come as close as possible to real combat situations with a high degree of safety. Donn Draeger , world renowned martial arts pioneer, was the first Westerner to bring widespread attention to the often cited “-do” versus “-jutsu” controversy. Historically the “do” or way arts were based on the “jutsu” or technique arts without what was deemed “dangerous techniques”. The “do” arts such as Judo were thus seen as a “watered down” version of their “jutsu” counterparts such as jujutsu , a combat-tested martial art, and thus considered a sport. Lee objected to these “sport” versions of martial arts and instead emphasized combat realism.
I’ve been in the academy for 2 months and the training is unbelievable. I started out just wanting to learn the sport to get into shape and now I want to be a martial artist. Since I ve been training my stamina and endurance are high. I havent felt this good since high school. I would recommend Jeet Kune Do University to anyone wanting to get in great shape or just wanting to learn to defend yourself using Bruce Lee’s philosophy of Jeet Kun Do.
