Jeet Kune Do Concepts
The Martial Art and Philosophy of Bruce Lee
Bruce Lee and his partner Dan Inosanto electrified the martial arts world in the late 1960s and early 1970s. The art created by these martial arts innovators had many roots and different influences. As they pieced the elements together that suited them best, the art that emerged from their research was a compelling and completely new system of training.
The use of boxing tools like focus mitts and speed bags, the mixing of trapping and grappling methods as well as taking the best techniques and training methods from each art they studied made this new art a dynamic and complete system. Bruce Lee and Dan Inosanto sought to eliminate the strict, stylized training that was common at that time and let each student find his/her own way. Elements that would suit many types of students and allow the practitioner to defend against all types of opponents were included and developed. This revolutionary art is known for its economy of motion and integration of arts. The guiding principle of the art is personal growth and continued research and development. Bruce’s art & philosophy (Jeet Kune Do) form the guiding principles of all the MKG International schools.
