Small JKD Tips

When throwing a jab, upper-cut or back-fist don't drop your hand try to keep your hand at the same level as your jaw.  When you use the hook don't punch far past your jaw try to bring your fist back close to your jaw.  When you throw a upper-cut throw it when your close to your opponent.  If your at close range your hooks, knees and horizontal-elbow are the best you can use.

Closest Target

This is another skill that's necessary to practice and should be combined with accuracy training.  When you train with a partner take some time to practice finding the target closes to a weapon for example kneeing to the stomach or hip, punching to the jaw or side-kicking the lead-knee of your opponent.

Shadow Striker

When your shadowboxing you do not want to fully extend your arms or try to punch hard as if your using a heavy-bag you want to relax your arms and give a short snapping punch.  It's also good to do this with weights or even resistance bands.  When you practice shadow-kicks it's the same short snaps and always follow by the way your body performs not how the style tells you.
