Best of Tommy Carruthers JKD Demo Seni

[@monkeyking-self-proclaimed7050]

I was in my Aikido class, my 3rd MA after Karate and Taekwondo. In comes a black man observing the class. During break, he asked if I wanted to see something. He popped in the face, chess and then my nose so fast, I didn't see it coming. Told me it was JKD.

[@Itemtotem]

Explosive force, blinding speed, conservation of momentum. Making Lee proud my man. Making Lee proud.

[@MindfulBodybuilding]

Thank you, hard to get good footage of this dude...His kicks and that low knee to the thigh were BOSS

[@ahmedShamil314]

StarseedΩTobias have you found anymore footage of him

[@blackace5167]

He is Tommy Carruthers and is a Jeet Kune Do student of Jesse Raymond Glover. Jesse Raymond Glover, on the other hand, is Bruce Lee's first student. Tommy Carruthers is the real deal in JKD.

[@streetlethal3727]

Way to go Tommy. There's a lot people can Learn from you. You have the equation for power. Speed Strength and timing = Tommy

[@borntodoit8744]

Great video - compact summary of moves to choose from. Loving the foot sweep with hands in pockets ...knocking oppoment off his balance to floor.

[@Agus_Nicodemo]

Impresionante, un Auténtico Experto.

[@146-]

Just brilliant, simple and very effective 💯

[@theunfazed7109]

Very awesome Tommy, I hope your doing well these days.

[@zadeh79]

Tommy is unbelievable. Closest to the Dragon himself.

[@asianactionactor4204]

I agree. A lot imitate Bruce for on-screen purposes. But seeing Tommy move in action, between the rhythm, always ready and the stance and fundamentals are the closest I've seen to Bruce's actual self-defense methods.

[@Octopussyist]

Jesse also said something similar about his student, Tommy.

[@vuspktvuspkt3899]

this video give for me more to motivation that working hard ...Thanks admin make excellent.

[@vuspktvuspkt3899]

the best of martial air.....his styles on so fast

[@jannisya3143]

OK..He is fast and one of a Excellent technical Fighter ....but to Demonstration is one ....to Fight i a real Situation an Other Situation... but big Respekt to him

[@Zen-jc2ov]

I'm sure he knows this ;)

[@1Blkkato]

I dont know how good TC really is but his kicks are lighting fast. My hand speed is just as fast but in all my training I have never been able to kick fast as Tommy and I havent seen anybody else in real life kick as fast as him except on film. Ive been all over the States, Korea and japan - seen some great martial artist but nobody who could kick this fast

[@КоловратРязанский-я6е]

Томми! Ты отличный парень!Желаю тебе здоровья и побед!

[@combateurbano1348]

Muito boa a técnica .

[@RekhaMartialArtist]

Awesome

[@asianactionactor4204]

Anyone thats trained with Tommy, Id love to ask some questions about technique and fight method! Hes a fast beast and his humble demeanor can mislead people. The man is dangerous and fast!

[@jl1876]

u can ask him directly, hes an email away as with most ppl these days lol

[@johnpauldaily]

I’m one of his group leaders. What are your questions?

[@alexj8781]

Есть где он чаки крутит?

[@greecostyler]

nice speed and technics but i want to see him in a sparring session not to see if he knows techniques but to see that from 100 techniques he will use only 3 or 4 techniques.

[@walterevans2118]

In the IFO he doesn't train to spar...but to FIGHT.......Plus JKD is not about collecting techniques but daily DECREASE.

[@deafsmith1006]

You don't understand the street. There ain't no 'sparring session' on the street. There ain't no rules either.

[@greecostyler]

@@deafsmith1006 do i say something different? i just say that on sparring you can really see how many techniques you can really use.

[@deafsmith1006]

@@greecostyler well yes, sparring does help, but what I was saying is the street has no rules. They will blindside you, fake you, try to draw your attention to other places before they strike.. and of course, one does that very thing if threatened... strike first! No rules. No fair play. Sparring helps some, but try FOF (force on force) training. It is better than sparring!

[@greecostyler]

@@deafsmith1006 i agrre but tommy carruthers is fast and has a lot of techniques but he shows a training partner who always stands like a stone. sparring, Drills and training with force helps you more than just technique.

[@emresimsek9639]

Nice

[@asianactionactor4204]

How did it go? And was he as fast as his videos? His method is the closest I've seen to Bruce's real self-defense methods. Down to the stance, speed, and body weight distribution (Keeps his upperbody away from attack which in part also helps open hips up for faster kick)

[@turalhasanov4437]

So crushing 💪👊

[@ThomasMarxJKD]

Machine.

[@pablobaldomir9430]

Wow ..

[@christophervargas7422]

Look I get it These demo's are instructors showing their prowess on a stand still person!!!But I don't see many of them sparring these drills???At least with the PFS via Paul vunak there was applying things while under pressure!!!

[@experiment54]

yea but that's how many fights start in the streets and everyday life situations

[@walterevans2118]

Christopher, Tommy doesn't train his students to 'spar' ,,,he trains them to fight....& yes, there are pressure elements involved...His instruction looks nothing like his demo here...Here he is just showing economy off the starting blocks. Nothing more. Don't look at one demo & assume that's all he does in ALL his training..Daft as a brush analysis.

[@QuickmixProductions]

1. Most people stay still, bevor they do something! It's the nature of things. 2. In JKD you strike your opponent before he strikes you! Intercept!

[@asianactionactor4204]

@@walterevans2118 Have you trained with Tommy? Ive been a fan of his for years but very rare info about him. And yeah Tommy is a beast.

[@asianactionactor4204]

Do you remember which seminar or video has Vunak applying under pressure? He's the real deal too and has totally tested this stuff out. You could say thats the other part of the science of martial arts, applying it to see what works for us

[@alexandruescu1207]

Doesn’t everyone look great against a student who just stands there?

[@jaketheasianguy3307]

Do you need much to sucker punch somebody ? Because feeling the other guy's intention to hurt you and hit him first when he's not expecting you to hit him is one of the main principle of JKD.

[@gabrielegasparini5779]

Excelse

[@jaditatv1488]

How did he get this fast

[@walterevans2118]

Reps....Reps....REPS.....& MORE REPS..........Millions of them.....Over Decades.....Working with resistance bands exercises....One of his apprentice instructors told me that once he did 12 THOUSAND punches in ONE DAY....Plus he has naturally fast muscle twitch fibres.....Another factor is his unmatched understanding of Body Mechanics and how to apply to them Principles of Simplicity & Directness to refine them. His upper body is VERY strong with power to weight ratio....When he was a boy Tommy used to climb trees endlessly. This gave him massive upper body strength which he uses today to blast through complexity pak sau like a blow torch through butter.....

[@johnnorwood507]

The recording is at three times regular speed!!!, watch the people In the back ground.

[@prjkd]

Tommy usually answers: “God” but Walter outlines the combination of genetically gifted fast twitch muscle fibres and decades of training fulltime

[@robertvondarth1730]

You’re right, those kicks and eye jabs won’t do a thing.

[@johnsheehan9518]

All against an idiot standing there asking to be hit , some joke totally unrealistic , the man obviously never had a real street fight in his life

[@johnpauldaily]

Reality… he was a bouncer in Glasgow Scotland for 7 years. He’s used his stuff for real. Which is quite different in fact from the ring or cage.

[@mellonhead9568]

DK YOO was an exhibitionist similarly until it came time to box.... but maybe tommy is different 🤔

[@LtheDetective]

He use to be a bouncer and I'm sure he used it while doing so...jkd isn't karate for point scoring or mma... it's training the body to put a person down for real in real life or death scenarios, like military hand to hand combat training. It's not a sports martial arts

[@asianactionactor4204]

@@liam-n8098 Towards the end of Bruce's life he was drilling "sure fire" killing techniques if he ever had to use them. One of the technique was the eyejab (a fight ender, especially with steel fingers and power like Bruce) and some sort of neck twist mentioned in the notes. These are street techniques that you just dont do in sparring. On any given day, the much smaller man can win in the chaos of a street fight

[@anthonybrogan390]

@@liam-n8098 have you ever tried to poke someone in the eye in a fight, there is too much head movement for that to work effectively you have more chance scoring with a punch and even a lot of punches are thrown that don't always land. I throw some pretty fast punching combinations on my heavy bag and my wing chun dummy is modified so I can throw eye finger jabs but when I spar with my sparing partners they are not stationary and are throwing punches back. I have very really been able to connect with a finger jab to the eye. Stationary target yeah
