Exactly,my friend.The intercepting fist is a technique very effective, impactful and requires a keen sense of anticipation. When you have mastery and you are very fast with the extra power (as was the case with BRUCE LEE), you have a definite advantage over the opponent you are fighting and if the blows are destructive, the opponent is likely to bite the dust quickly. Even if the opponent is very resistant, with the repetition of the blows (powerful), the outcome of the fight is not in doubt.

That particular kick thrown by Bruce in the movie clip is quite impressively choreographed, you can see how Bob is stopped right in his tracks as he's moving forward.
You've got Lee's bounce and flow! Jeet Kune Do is an amazing style/mindset/lifestyle and it seems like you've put in a great deal of time and effort to learn it. Great video!
@@CharlesDamianoBLC, I've been a fan of Bruce Lee, Jeet Kune Do, and his mentality on martial arts for many years! I can remember watching Enter The Dragon as a young boy and being amazed, running through the house doing flips and kicks haha! Got into his literature in my early 20s and that's when I realized how brilliant he was, and when I started trying to really implement his information into my own training. This guy is probably the best style imitator I've seen!
Thanks for sharing your story Daniel. Yes Brue was Brilliant in many ways! Like you I am also fan of Bruce Lee, Jeet Kune Do, and his Philosophy on martial arts and life. I studied Wing Chun for several years and as well as JKD under Sifu Ted Wong before his passing at some of his seminars. Agree very good style imitator. Since you are a big fan of Bruce Lee please visit my Bruce Lee RU-vid Channel, which I know you will love and please subscribe. Looking forward to chatting with you in the comments! Sincerely Charles
@@marioitalianboy4487 you don't know crap about JKD. it is beyond your comprehension. All the people who understand its concept then JKD will show you the way to its light.
Thumbs up to Mr. Nakamura for exhibiting Mr Lee's legendary techniques but I must say that there was no one in the world who display such awesome Martial Arts style other than the creator himself. Long live Mr Bruce Lee, the greatest Martial Artist in the world.
How long have you been a Bruce Lee fan? Since a fan I think you will enjoy my Bruce Lee RU-vid Channel. Please check it out and join our Bruce Lee community. Thanks Charles
I trained with mr nakamura... Gotta say he's awesome and fancied me very much at the inosantos academy... When guru Dan passes I will train with me nakamura once I'm done with my boxing career.
Agreed. At the same time I can also see how there's a paradox going on when it comes to Jun Fan Gung-Fu (or Jun Fan JKD, or whatever). On one hand, it's great that Lee's own personal interpretation of the JKD concept is being taught and kept alive, but on the other hand it quickly becomes a style if the students do not have a deeper understanding of the philosophy and reasoning behind why Jun Fan JKD looks like it does.
La forma del jeet kune do de bruce fue unica. cada uno practica el arte marcial y le da una impronta. no nos olvidemos que cada uno tiene su forma unica de procesar el mundo que lo rodea y mas alla de la esencia de la economicidad de movimientos nunca vamos a ver un artista marcial como brucee lee, primero porque el diseño este arte y segundo porque su manera de percibir el mundo que lo rodeaba era unica.
Good stuff! Of course, not everything Sifu Lee did in the movies was JKD. He did some stuff just for the movies. However, what I've seen on this video is applicable in self-defense.
si, claro tio;tienes rason! bruce lee ¡ Es único! ¡ Quedará único! Algunos posiblemente son más fuertes pero jamás tendrán la misma capacidad de aprehender lo que lo rodea
Look at the attacks .. look at the defense .. it looks in effective ... Look at hands location .. you can see it open .. Look at the angles of some of those kicks your going to hurt yourself if you try them. Look how silly his hand attacks look .. open hand .. can simply defended against .. Some attacks may work .. but an MMA guy can check and nullify many of those moves and dig inside his weak defense .. even the moves are so telling and too exposed .. Good for movie bad in real life .. showmanship ..
I would love to see a live exhibition, anyone can show techniques and philosophies but a straight up live demonstration will show you undeniable proof of certain techniques not just the techniques copied from the movies while the opponent just stand there lol
For those who criticize Nakamura, I would love seeing a better video of your version of JKD. Dan Inosanto, was Bruce Lee's student and Mr. Nakamura's teacher. Para los mamapingas, que se creen que no sirve lo que el muestra, has un upload de tu tremendo video de jkd, ya que criticas a Nakamura, estudiante de Dan Inosanto. Bruce Lee>> Dan Inosanto >>>Yori Nakamura lineage.
@LouieBbut the jkd that he does most resembles Bruce Lee especially with the hopping foot work and stance. Also he does high kicks resembling Bruce Lee which I don't see other jkd guys do. He has the best jkd because it most resembles Bruce Lee movement
@Gomer Gilligan nah. that's what you think. Just like Ipman Bruce Lee's teacher. you are only looking at the appearance. Hiro's speed is much faster than Yori Nakamura. Nakamura is good but he is only imitating action of Bruce Lee. Hiro studied under Ted Wong. Bruce Lee only gave a rank to Ted Wong. He never gave any rank to any of his student because Ted Wong was an exceptional and extraordinary student among his entire class.
ladies and gents. 2014 summer or autumn I´ll go to Los Angeles for 3 month first time. hope some people like to go too. I come from germany. Hope for answers.. Bless!
Good to see a break down of the movie fight scenes,even watching several dozen times never got all that infighting!!!! Too fast and too many camera angles.. Thanks
It's a fact.He was the first to think so to strive for maximum efficiency, this is why he studied closely street fighting and all the other martial arts that have come within his reach by improving gestures and blows, going to the essentials. He was the first to open this path and be going so far, I believe that no one else has done better, for the moment ...
I really enjoyed that. It's hard not to appreciate Bruce Lee. Those are moves that represent his ideas that are in film. I think the reactions Chuck had in it were overly poor, but it was to demonstate his ideas. Some of it looks less good or stupid or looks only like the movies. But the purpose of the side kick is to use intercepting straight lines. That's better and smarter than you think, it's very smart. I like the offensive, not defensive use of lap sau from the already dangerous gouge. Because Bruce was not allowed to finish the style of wing Chun then relate it to where it came from Shaolin ... Which included all the lines already ... He had to create JEET KUN DO to fill in the gaps ... And the world was better off for it.
From what I see I can conclude that JKD is all about timing. Best fit for slim and fast guys. This style is about flashy counter-attacks, but at the same time instead of just responding to attack, the fighter needs to be flashy to hit the opponent in the very beginning of his attack.
I believe the reason that people feel the need to put things into boxes is the fact that we humans make sense of the world in terms of categories. Lee's JKD is no exception. It's hard for people (sometimes even myself) to grasp how something can be a concept without being a style. The way I think of Lee's vision/the essence of JKD is that there are common denominators for effective NHB combat such as Economy of Motion, and some styles ARE per se more economic, but people don't question them.
