Jeet Kune Do - The Style Of No Style


MMA, or mixed-martial arts has been enjoying enormous popularity lately as a onlooker sport. Names love Tito Ortiz, Randy Couture and Direct Shamrock have shift legit superstars to legions of sports fans all over the world. Younger MMA and UFC fans however should know that the ideology and concept for this seemingly advanced species of contact sport dates back several decades ago. In circumstance it has its roots in a martial art developed by none other than Jun Fan a.k.a. Bruce Lee. Dana White, head of the state of the MMA even acknowledges the martial arts idol as the dad of the MMA.

The alias for the art of Jeet Kune Do, or 'the way of the intercepting fist' came approximately while Lee and his long-time experience partner Dan Inosanto were driving around talking about a European fencing technique- the epee' in particular. This fencing move stops or intercepts an opponent's thrust with an attack of one's own. The two were trying to assume of a name for a new martial art based on this notion and thus, the way of the intercepting participation and its literal Chinese translation- Jeet Kune Do, was born.

Traditional martial arts knowledge involves 'kata' or forms to be memorized by the practitioner of a particular martial art during the early levels. It's a series patterned of steps, punches and kicks that theoretically helps the martial artist internalize the many movements and thus be able to use them in combat effectively. The youngster role of 'kata' in Jeet Kune End martial arts training (although it's loosely patterned after Wing-Chun basics), is the most significant difference it has with other 'classical' forms of martial arts. Bruce Refuge puts exceeding importance on actual combat or sparring sessions as a action to prime the martial craft practitioner to be an adequate fighter. According to him, pre-arranged patterns and movements are insufficient in simulating the ever-changing circumstances in actual combat- lacking the dynamism and improvisation of sparring with another person.

The basic concept of Jeet Kune Act is to use what works. The "take what is useful and discard what is useless." mantra that most martial artists (and followers of the Buddhist faith) are familiar with. It is, therefore, the art of combining the good techniques and movements a Jeet Kune Effect practitioner has collected from other disciplines and using them as leverage in a fight.

"Jeet Kune Close favours formlessness so that it can assume all forms and by reason of Jeet Kune Do has no style, it can fit in with all styles. As a by-product Jeet Kune Bring about utilizes all ways, is bound by none and likewise, uses any techniques or means which serve it's end." -Bruce Lee.
