Jeet Kune Do

JKD logoJeet Kune Do is the system of martial arts developed by Bruce Lee and is considered by many to be one of the most advanced martial arts systems ever created.

Using the Chinese Gung Fu style of wing chun as a foundation, Bruce Lee researched and incorporated ideas and principles from a wide array of fighting and combat systems from around the world such as Western boxing, fencing, French savate, and Thai kickboxing.

Not wanting to be trapped in the quagmire of "style", Bruce Lee developed his art with a focus on kinesiology and physics. As a result, his system and the tools and techniques that comprise it have achieved a level of superiority in efficiency and effectiveness over the "traditional" martial arts styles by emphasizing speed, power, body mechanics, timing, and tool development.
