You’ll become more focused, self-disciplined and honorable. So, no more excuses. Start today.
Wing Chun & The Real World of Violence
Why does Wing Chun have "emergency techniques?" Why do we talk about straight hitting and simplicity all the time and then also practice things like Gaun Sao and Kwan Sao, which obviously aren't as simple and direct as an eye-jab? Well, because fighting in the real world, unlike in the school or ring, can be full of surprises. To think that we're always going to know when the fight starts, and where the attack will happen, is the stuff of insanity. That's the Achilles heel of most modern training. It presumes too much.
In today's video, Sifu Jason explains how and why Wing Chun is both simple AND comprehensive. It's not either/or. We need both the basics and emergency measures in order to...

JKD: Have No Way As Way
Просмотров 77419 часов назад
What does it mean to truly have no way as way? This is a question that absolutely needs to be answered in JKD. The half-digested, half-thought slogans we have in life, especially this one, cause tons of trouble in our application and training. Why? Because all practice is the practice of a theory or philosophy. This means that we're doing - practicing - what we believe to be true. To life "half...
Best Knife Technique for Self-defense
Просмотров 1,8 тыс.21 день назад
Simplicity rules! Especially in self-defense when seconds count and there’s tons of pressure. Most people overlook the knife as a good self-defense tool because they get confused by all the fancy techniques they see demonstrated. Well, the truth is that if it’s flashy, it’s trashy; throw it out. All you need is the versatility of the Snap-Cut. When used with and supported by good footwork, the ...
Three Things We Must Do for JKD to Survive

Is JKD dying? Will it still be taught and practiced in the future, or is it going to fade away as Bruce Lee's career recedes further and further into the past? Well, that just might happen if JKD teachers and students don't focus on three essentials that we detail in this video. No profession can survive hacks and amateurs at the helm, so Sifu Jason talks about three foundational things all of ...
Dirty Fighting & Grappling

All out fighting isn't a sport, of course. But how do we bridge the gap between the two? How do we make sure that we're ready for reality? In today's video, Sifu Aaron takes you through the seemingly contradictory worlds of sport fighting (on the ground) and the realities of survival. Yes, you must have enough skill and experience to know how NOT to get choked out, or to get your arm broken. Bu...
Wing Chun Ground Defense
Просмотров 1,2 тыс.Месяц назад
Lots of us in Wing Chun say things like, “in real fights we don’t wanna go to the ground.” Or, “in the street with multiple opponents and concrete, we wanna stay on our feet.” Well, that’s all true. Absolutely. But what happens if we get taken down? Denial is never a good plan in life. Especially in self-defense. For that reason we must train ALL RANGES of combat. Yes, even on the ground. And t...
Infighting Genius: Chi-Sao Class Footage

Real infighting is nasty business. All targets are on the table and you have virtually no space...so, therefore, not much (if any) time to react. Chi-Sao gives us the only scientific means of practicing and developing skill at this most dangerous range. In today's video, Sifu Jason - along with Devin - show you how footwork, shifting, and structure are all involved in one brilliant package. You...
Wing Chun or Boxing? Both!
Просмотров 1,9 тыс.2 месяца назад
There's an irrational assumption that boxing and Wing Chun are antithetical and that you can't do both. The problem with this is that without safe sparring there's no way to develop timing and accuracy. Moreover, there's no better way than boxing to get a chance to see punches coming at you. That's a critical skill! But what about infighting? What about life-or-death type struggles where anythi...
Biu Jee Applications Part 1

At last, a video you've guys have been asking about for a long time. Biu Jee is Wing Chun's enigmatic third and final empty hand form. It's enveloped in a great amount of confusion. Some say it "shouldn't go out the door" - as in, it shouldn't be taught to any but the most special students. Others consider it a form so advanced as to contain deadly techniques. Another interpretation is that Biu...

Bruce Lee's Unknown Teacher

Four Self-Defense Essentials

As martial artists we can all get carried away in our training. We can get too smitten with our pet moves and love of sparring. But true self-defense often pits you against a larger and stronger opponent. Or against more than one. It's not consensual, that's for sure. To that end, in today's video we cover four essentials for of self-defense that should never be overlooked amidst all of our tra...
Simple. Not Easy. True Jeet Kune Do
Просмотров 3,2 тыс.4 месяца назад
A sudden, violent encounter is no place for complexity. This was Bruce Lee's whole point. Simple, direct and effective is what you need in a violent clash and that's what JKD is supposed to deliver. And it does. If it's taught and practiced correctly. The problem is that many of us add new things rather than work on mastering basic things. This is most evident with JKD's leading straight punch....
Three HUGE Myths About Knives for Self-Defense

Everyone should know not just good hand-to-hand self-defense, but also basic weaponry. Well, nothing is better for an everyday concealed carry (EDC) tool than a tactical folding knife. The problem is, though, that Hollywood and popular culture has portrayed knives as nothing more than an ineffectual weapon of scoundrels. In this video we cover the biggest of these myths, why they’re completely ...

Bruce Lee the Fighter! (Wrath of the Dragon book review)
If i have to modify my wing chun in order to make it more realistic than whats the reason to train wingchun? I could just as easily train boxing and i wouldnt have to modify anything cause boxing works already as it is with or without gloves
Good explanation, I did not know.
I'm guessing the Bruce Lee estate still hasn't acknowledged this? Gotta keep that sweet money flowing...
Have no way as way is the same concept as "be water." It doesn't make do whatever you want. It means the world, the need will dictate what you become -- that you will accept what the world requires you to be, rather than trying to force your will. The way you train to find that flexibility is the difference between the original and concepts sides.
Aaron just might ready for Hollywood!!!! ;-) Simple and great lesson.
Having no way as way refers to an advanced level of JKD... It really means freedom... That would be the ideal.. This in no way means you're not doing anything...it doesn't mean you are not using some mechanic or some tactic... anyone who thinks that simply doesn't get it... No way as way runs all through JKD; the water example: Water uses no way (shape) as way but it is obviously still water... we train a thing, we learn the thing and then we forget the thing... Bruce also said something like that, "At first a punch was just a punch; then when I studied a punch was no longer just a punch; then after I studied a punch was just a punch again...." It is returning to the beginning -- natural unnaturalness...the original JKD ranking showed this: the highest level was the same as the beginner level... Remember? Likewise you start doing this style or that style but in the end you're just doing you... Free your mind, be shapeless like water... Be true to who you are my friends.... :)
I think it means what it says. That is to say a system or style does not exist. Naturally , any fighting must as a necessity be mobile and evasive. To an extent, how we respond will be predicated on what our opponents does. I do agree that there has to be certain principles in place. I personally believe that his expression of the art was always changing and adapting. Just a thought.
I think this might be the way some people have interpreted "have no way as way" or "have no limitation as limitation": that for example if the opponent is a grappling-based martial artist, that you should fight the same way he fights. Or if it's a taekowndo guy, you should fight the same way he fights, etc
I bet the JKD concept followers would try to counter your arguments...
They can try…😎😜
"Many martial artists like “more,” like “different,” not knowing what the truth and the Way exhibit in the simple everyday movements, because it is here they miss these things (if there is any secret, it is missed by seeking)." - Bruce Lee "The Ultimate Source of Jeet Kune Do"
"It's like a finger pointing away to the moon. Don't concentrate on the finger or you will miss all that heavenly glory."
😂
please breakdown George Foreman's stand up grappling. He uses some Wing Chun and Karate blocks in boxing too
I just bought your Siu Lim Tao book, enjoying it. But I am wanting more info on Wu Sao (Guarding Hand). I did a search of your channel and do not see a video on it. Is it just simply a hand ready to grab / press / close into fist? Why is the hand bladed instead of palm pointing toward enemy, which seems more apt to grab. Thanks from tExas!
That’s a great question. We should do a video on it. Thanks!!
FOR THE IDIOTS WHO CLAIM THIS WINGCHUN PUNCH IS USELESS...IN TEPITO NEIGHBOORHOOD IN MEXICO CITY IN THE SCHOOL FROM HERE CAME OUT 17 WORLD CHAMPIONS OF ENGLISH BOXING....THEIR STYLE IS ALWASY FORWARD AND VERTIXAL PUNCH LIKE IN WINGCHUN...AND ITS DAMNED EFFICIENT IF YOU KNOW HOW TO USE IT
Dan Inosanto is one of the big gest frau dst ers in martial arts. His "as many arts as possible" (his words). Was designed to keep students coming in paying him money. Sc s ammer.
@@dagaffer2269 while I have serious philosophical disagreements with Mr. Inosanto and his followers, some of which I’ve articulated on this channel, I try and refrain from any and all ad hominem attacks. I don’t know for certain Mr. Inosanto’s motives but take at face value that his relativism has led him to teach as he does. I truly appreciate your watching the channel and taking the time to comment. I truly do. But I also hope that all of us work hard to keep our pursuit of the truth disciplined and respectful. I will add, of course, that in my other video wherein I explain why he’s wrong about JKD Concepts, his followers exposed themselves as astonishingly irrational and even hateful. All of their replies were either illogical ad hominem or fallacious appeals to authority. As always, watch out for the self-proclaimed beacons of tolerance and open-mindedness, because they prove to be neither when you disagree with them. To that end, I like to think we’re different over here. Anyway, thanks again for watching.
NOT WING CHUN
I was ok with the talk until he mentioned "woke movement." "MAGA movement" is more fitting for what he described.
Thank you for this fine presentation!!!
Glad it was helpful!
If u face multiple opponents, ur done, dude...😂😂😂
The younger guy just found out that his JKD was enough to handle a attcak...there is a lot to be learned here.
really settled a lot of questions and missinformation. great book.thanks Jason.
Kajukenbo with Kali is a good combination
Thanks. As someone who has pulled a knife to defend myself, this is helpful!
And here i was thinking this is about defending yourself from a knife attack....
ruclips.net/video/OpZ8EkK3eWY/видео.htmlsi=b-X9iEwn14R4NC9G
Now, how do we defend against it? Isn't that more important?
hit and move
That sounds ridiculous show me a picture with Wong Jack man putting anyone in a headlock no photoshop fax mom Jack man is not a wrestler or a jitsu practitioner That is BS worst information ever.
It looks a little like the finger jab I practice on my B.O.B., but more damaging. Great technique Sifu.
🤺
Fence.
Only side peoples think but the darkest side always mistory hidden ..... ????
I believe you should spend some time with forms first then slowly bring the training/drills. We started learning simple drills half way through the first form. That will keep you from learning bad habits. We would discuss in class of how we were able to use wing Chun in our personal lives. Wing Chun should be apart of your everyday experience, to make the system come more natural to you.
This guy is 100% truthful.
I have done martial arts for 21yrs and have 17 yrs. experience doing secutity in clubs, doing loss prevention, working malls and ending up in alot of fights. It's funny how despite all my experience in martial arts ( Okinawan Goju Ryu karate, MMA) people still think I am an idiot when I say no matter what art (s) you have studied and what level you are at it is physically impossible to beat multiple attackers in a real situation.
Is that Bruce Lee’s fighting method? If so I had them in the smaller paper back form from the 90s when I was a kid in middle school… I think some of it needs to be updated for today with grappling and MMA techniques being known by even high school kids that watch Saturday night UFC fights and know how to do even sloppy rear naked chokes and guillotines, which are even more dangerous when applied by untrained people. And BJJ being more popular than ever. That being said, it still has some good stuff in there. It just needs some updates that reflect today. In to be fair the books I believe Bruce did them sometime in the 1960s..
That’s them. I remember getting them at the mall when I was a teenager and they were something like $6 a book lol
Great video. Although I know these moves already. I enjoyed watching it and the way you explained it and one can always wake away with something new when the video is good.
Cold Steel written by John Styers.
Been saying for years that boxers should spend time learning some Wing Chung for inside fighting.
Hollywood does not let you in their club without paying the dues.
❤
Sick.💯3:40 I love it. Awesome Sifu J. A useful tutorial from somebody who knows what’s up. 😎💯
much more Hubad lubad my freind 😂 than wing chun to stiff 😮
What about hybrids like Chap Koon Do?
It sounds to me like you want to commercialise JKD and turn it into MMA. JKD isn’t for everyone. Bruce didn’t want it commercialised because it’s not like other martial arts. There’s already no quality control for the art as it is. There is next to nobody who has ever been as efficient at it as Bruce because nobody trains like Bruce. And if you follow Bruce’s training and methods people are quick to say “you’re just copying Bruce” well, nobody follows Bruce’s training methodology or the principles as it is and what do you get? Awful representations of JKD that look more like mma. There is only one person who’s even similar to Bruce and that’s because he follows Bruce’s methods which quite frankly if more people did, JKD would be in a much better state of affairs.
It is based on sword thrusting, or you can think of it that way .
Stick and move.
Nice! You can also uses this in drills with multiple opponents. Using them as shields.
Proverbs 17:13 (KJV) Whoso rewardeth evil for good, evil shall not depart from his house.
I like your fight science, less so your economics. A national budget is not the same as a household budget. Spending can lead to more wealth generation and initiate a virtuous circle, while austerity can do the opposite. Also, where a state has a sovereign currency the state can actually create more money, which can fuel inflation if done recklessly, but not if done sensibly when there is spare productive capacity in the economy waiting to be mobilized, or the extra money is used to generate more productive capacity.
Bruce Lee said the stick is an extension of your arm. Why do you need all the stylized movements? . Dan never liked to spar , never learned to kick . Strait trash using Bruce’s name to promote that stick trash . The lowest low level fencer will kill 99% of Kali practitioners
Don’t forget the Cocaine. Bruce Lee’s secret ingredient.
