The Street-Fighting Stance

The first thing is turn your head left or right, bring rear fist up to the side of your jaw with other in front of your jaw and coming from the side of your shoulder.  The fist in front should be moving back and forward a little to be ready to strike.  Bring head down a little so it can be covered by your fist.

The next thing is your legs, they should be slightly bent with one foot in front of the other.  The front foot should be somewhere under your front arm and other somewhere under your rear.  The rear foot is pointing sideways and front is forward, both of them hopping a little off the floor one foot at a time so that you won't be flat footed and you'll be ready to move on them.

This is the position you want to be in when you practice striking or footwork.  This form is the truth, it does not come from any style and any or all techniques can work easily from there.

Artificial Attack

If their is anything light with weight on it like a piece of wood from a chair or a rock something that you think can hurt an attacker pick it up and use it if you feel it's necessary.

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.

Taekwondo Flaws



Taekwondo is only good for sport the style has too many tricks in it's kicks and their no where near being good for self-defense.  If you were to remove all of the unnecessary techniques their wouldn't be much left to use.  This style is one of two styles that are used in tournaments where the rules don't allow punches to the head...if they wear head gear then why not.

Some Random Stuff

When your out try to remember not to wear headphones that stop you from hearing anything else besides the music.  Make sure when your moving on your feet that you have your lower lead-leg in this position / and have your knees slightly bent.  When your in a bear-hug and you headbutt you want to jab with your head instead of hammering with it.

JKD Reality Training


In reality you have no idea who your going to come up against so when practicing fighting spar with anyone no matter their size, style, strengths or skill level.

True Human Fighter

A person has to be their selfs you cannot be someone else because your lying to yourself your acting and that's not going to help anyone with their fighting skills or strengths.  "Jeet Kune Do" is the art of self-expression not doing what "Bruce Lee" did in the movies.  What "Bruce Lee" did in the movies is not what he would do in real life.

In reality what "Bruce Lee" did was absorb everything he found to be useful in the streets against any opponent regardless of their size, strengths, and skills.  It's all about what you can perform as a individual you search your body to find out if theirs another level to your skills.

Right or Wrong

The only things that, I know some people have wrong about JKD is that they think it's a style,  a mixture of different forms of martial arts, and some people think it's just Kung fu with a different name.   JKD is all about human anatomy the mind and body learning how to utilize everything that he or she has found to be necessary in combat.  The information that "Bruce Lee" put into this can work for anyone because it's all about what that individual is mentally and physically able to handle.

Multiple

In a multiple attacker fight no attacker will wait for you to finish beating on their partners before they come in to get you.  Always watch your back to make sure no one is coming up behind you.
