Contemporary Jeet Kune Do is a streamlined version of the original Bruce Lee fighting method that addresses the whole matrix of modern combat, which includes stand-up, empty-hand fighting (Wing Chun trapping, Muay Thai, Panantukan, Pananjakman, Savate, and Silat), ground/grappling (Jiu-Jitsu, Jujutsu, Judo, Dumog, Kino Mutai), weapons (Kali, Escrima, Fencing) and mass attacks.
Stand-up, ground, weapons, empty hands, mass attacks, grappling, MMA.
Who cares?
A Jeet Kune Do practitioner is all of these and more.
Most street fights are alive, amorphous, and shapeshift between one or more of these paradigms within a single engagement.
Formless, and adaptable, like water in a cup, Jeet Kune Do transitions seamlessly between these different facets of fighting.
Bruce Lee (1940-1973) is a martial arts legend. He was a film star, author, philosopher, martial arts instructor, and the founder of the art of Jeet Kune Do. While he is most widely known for his exploits on the silver screen, Bruce was a world-class street fighter.
Dan Inosanto is an icon in the martial arts world. For many years, he was Bruce Lee's training partner. Through his experiences with Bruce, he is the world's leading authority on Jeet Kune Do.
Paul Vunak is one of Dan Inosanto's top students. Paul was the head martial arts instructor for the famed Navy Seal Team 6. Paul has trained many elite branches of government, including Navy Seals, DEA, and the DOD.
Joe Lewis (1944-2012) is an American martial artist who was voted the greatest fighter in karate history. Bruce Lee trained Joe and advocated for the perpetuation of Jeet Kune Do and its philosophies.
