Overview

Jeet Kune Do [JKD], which transalates as 'the way of the intercepting fist', was developed over a number of years by Bruce Lee as an anti-thesis to what he saw as the formulaic straightjacket of the classical martial arts which, he argued, failed to allow individuals to fully and honestly express themselves. However, as Cass Magda points out in his Foreword, JKD is definitely not a 'do-it-yourself' martial art and it does have a unique structure. Indeed, it is essential for the JKD fighter to master this structure if he, or she, is to present a highly organized defence and mount an instantaneous and effective counter-attack. AUTHOR: Dave Carnell is the owner and Director of Impact Martial Arts Academy in Stoke-on-Trent, England, which has several branches throughout the country. Dave is a much sought after instructor who teaches in the United Kingdom, elsewhere in Europe, and in the United States. Dave is a Senior Full Instructor for Cass Magda's MI Association and is Supervising Instructor for the United Kingdom. ILLUSTRATIONS: 350 photographs
