Jeet Kune Do is not a set of techniques wiith a lable, it is a concept that no fighter can ignore. "Take what is useful, discard what is not". Use only the most powerful techniques you can find and make them your own. Do not forget his legacy.

[@trymii5396]

No it’s not lol. It was Bruce’s unique style that he developed after taking what is useful and discarding what is not

​@@spacelion1695 I learned a great lesson from this quote thanks for bringing it up

[@kalesalad6816]

I'm sure the technique part of Jeet Kune Do is the footwork. When looking at Bruce Lee and the way he fought. Yet I completely agree with your statement, regardless. I think the footwork is important for the speed of Jeet Kune Do

[@tannerpack6398]

Hi, I'm a Fencer who has won 26 competition medals, former state champion, competed in the Junior Olympics and National Championships on multiple occasions and I have to say I was happy to see your footwork. You explained it very well and honestly, this footwork looks very much like fencing footwork though instead of the kicks we use the same steps to set up a lunge lol. Footwork is something I'm always working on and was happy to see we had similar ideas about it. Keep up the good work and hope your having a nice day.

[@namelesssturdy4676]

Its almost like boxing foot work... We take an inch or so step forward and place the back foot in the same spot that our lead leg was in... Taking small steps help us manage the space in the ring better

[@JohnyB1989]

nice thanks! I am a historical fencer (longsword, rapier, etc.) and there is not so much about footwork in the source. Or I did not find it. Why historical sources when there is youtube! Thanks for the Video.

[@ochs-hema]

yeah mate. Same here @@JohnyB1989

[@Jordantzd]

Bruce Lee read a lot on fencing and he did in fact incorporate its footwork into his martial arts

[@arjunswayamkumar2507]

im a foilist 🙋‍♂️

[@charlesgraham9954]

Footwork is ALL ur power. Told this before on here. I boxed for 6 years and wrestled for 6 and 2 years of BJJ. But back to my point. My boxing coach made me do 6 months of footwork before i ever thru a punch

[@ultimatewarriors1291]

Huh

[@danstafford5977]

Boxing was too telegraphic... boxers are able to slip punches... Muhammad Ali was a game-changer... others tried to emulate Muhammad Ali but we're not very successful!

[@ThotPatroll]

Why tho?

[@onerider808]

Lol, I did so many bunny hops, attack lunges, and footwork drills I used to dream of them.

Ex long term student of Ted ( RIP) happy to say " this young man is simply great. It brings joy to me to see that JKD is still and with some obviously very capable men Thank you Dan.....

[@BaronMcCausland]

What a wonderful teacher! He explains so well, and, absolutely tells you the truth about the time it really takes to make the Jun Fan/JDK stance feel natural and automatic. Waaaay back in 1980, as a teen, I started learning/training the fighting stance from the BLFM books, and like Dan, it really took a long time for what (on paper) seem so simple, to become natural, balanced, and automatic. Dan had me laughing too, because, to accurately learn/practice the stance with the various foot-works - and maintain proper posture in motion, I recall when my mother came into my room and saw I had used nasty black electrical tape (it's all we had) to lay-out a tape-grid on "her" beautiful hardwood floor. That day I also learned how to slip and duck a broom LOL! Keep up the great teaching Dan; no doubt, Sifu Bruce would be proud of you!

[@coreyoliver3653]

Thanks, Dan. Footwork is definitely an underappreciated aspect - in many fields and disciplines. I digress: I’m trying to figure out why the dislikes. ‘Must be the 25% - 35% of neurotic society whose goals haven’t been realized - yet. Mine haven’t yet, either. Regardless, I’m not going to hate on others’ success.

[@brandonrondeau9606]

Thank you for explaining every move or possibility with very well executed details. Love your work !

[@rudyvega4447]

Sifu Ted Wong was Sijo Bruce Lee"s Protoge in JEET KUNE DO. Sifu Wong emphaszied The On-Guard Position, Footwork, The Powerline, Balance, Alignment, Distance & Recovery. But Not all JKD Kwoons Teach The Importance By-Jong or The On-Guard Posititon as Sifu Wong did. But in order to be Proficient in JKD, you must understand, The 7 Natural Weapons, The 3 Fronts, Primary & Secondary Targets, The 5 Ways of Attack, The 5 Types of Speed and The 6 Ranges of Combat.

[@charlesdshuping1630]

Dan, I enjoy your videos some much brother. I've practiced JKD for over 20yrs with SDS JKD and can always gleen something from your techniques. Thank you for sharing your knowledge of this beautiful art!! I hope you continue to make vids from time to time!

[@DUARTE99]

These videos are amazing and helpful. Have you ever considered creating some on-line JKD instructional modules like how Rickson Gracie and Henry Akins are doing, or even an on-line JKD University instructional site like how the Gracie Academy/University, Renzo Gracie, Marcelo Garcia and SBGi are doing. I think your style of teaching and communicating, plus your deep knowledge and elite skill in Bruce Lee’s creation, concepts and philosophies of JKD would be a HUGE SUCCESS if you did. Just a thought.

[@andrewe225]

[@solomonizeal5674]

The hardest thing for a teacher to do is to convey the proper physical and mental mechanics that go into the art and this Sifu is excellent, he is very thorough 👊

[@ethanwelles]

Interestingly, the basic stance is very much like the stance used in skateboarding (for ollies etc). Feels quite natural to me! Thank you for all your VERY helpful and insightful videos Dan! Also greatly enjoy the positive and respectful comments on your channel compared to the snake pits elsewhere. This is what it's about!

[@FrancisMaxino]

Also a lot like for surfing too eh...

[@DJEmirMixtapes]

I also transitioned from skateboarding to Kung fu and in Shaolin certain movements I've taught to people when they are struggling with like a double smash I teach it from the standpoint of skateboarding you know like doing a 360 ollie just don't do the kicks at first do the lift knee and 360 jump motion first more like a skateboard jump once the body understands the general principles of the larger movements then add in the kicks and details. :) i also see sparring much like learning a skateboard trick you work on it a bunch of times before it finally works in sparring, understanding that nothing happens immediately that it takes tons of practice is something that carries over from skateboarding it also helps that skateboarding already started my Iron shin training ages ago LOL as that board hits the shins over and over :)

[@ethanwelles]

@@DJEmirMixtapes that's some great application! and lmao about the iron shins!

[@SuperArmy85]

ETsonggalaxy ted wong used to teach in a different way from dan inosanto..ted wong was focused on the footwork principally..and was very close to the Bruce lee Style of fighting..instead dan inosanto has the same knowledge but..i see a lot of kali filipino in his way of teaching..however its all.about speed, focusing, determination but everyone has his personal own style..its true that what bruce lee created was scientifically effective..but anybody could imitate him..also studing jkd..but jkd has shown us the truth..set us free from the routine..and that is important.

I believe he learned a lot more personalluy from Bruce since he lived with Bruce for several years. We know Bruce spend many,many hours training in his backyard etc and Ted was his pratice partner.

Yes Mr Lok, I Met Ted some yrs ago at a very small seminar, I had some limited private time with Mr Ted Wong. He emphasized footwork and much more footwork. Ted is JKD, I’m not sure if he is versed in other arts as Kali and Silat but it doesn’t matter. Practice one art to master it then move on. Thx for sharing.

Just from watching Ali as a major influence to me. I've used this my whole life as a fighter from watching Ali's footwork while never having a clue that it was used in fencing or JKD as well.

Hi Dan, Great video on footwork. Wing Chun has a closing the gap entry footwork as well. Guru Dan Inosato also states that Bruce really emphasized footwork. There is also great footwork in Phillipino Kali which is where Muhammad Ali got his signature cutting the ring shuffle from. In fact, the Marquis of Queensbury took the elements of Kali and brought them to England to formalize western boxing. Thank you for sharing Dan.
