Jesse Glover

[@questinfinity]

Wow. Even in his seventies Mr.Jesse Glover still had quick hands and power. Amazing that Mr. Glover got to touch hands and train directly on a regular basis with the legend, Bruce Lee...R.I.P Mr. JESSE GLOVER. Bruce Lee's first Student.

[@rossmacdonald9527]

One of the best humans ever. I was fortunate enough to have my Black Belt certificate in Non-Classical Gungfu signed by Jesse and trained with him in Seattle several times when Seifu Jaim Martin would take us up to train with Jesse and his students. As Wolfgang Rain says, honest and understated. Best times were after trainings at the Chinese restaurant around the corner from his dojo in Seattle.

[@GeorgeFranquiz]

Bruce Lee major major accomplishment was him, to be a uniter, he was able to bring people of different races together into an art, the real and best art of defense ever, to see all man as brothers.

[@avontewilliams1902]

Well damn if he’s still fast as an old man then I can imagine that he was the shiiitttttttt back in his youth

[@wolfgangrain1459]

Yeah, he was bad by then, but he could still seriously hurt a bad guy. My best friend. Miss that cat. Honest and understated, and teaching to his last possible moment. Always real. Peace, wolfgang

[@itommy1957]

Thank you for sharing this. I bought Jesse's books when they came out in the 1970's and have met him a few times. He is one of the most honest people I have ever known when he speaks about Bruce Lee. Jesse's first book on Bruce Lee is still one of the best in my opinion. If I can move like this when/if I get to his age, I will be happy. Best Regards Tom Keplar

[@adim00lah]

This was like a year before he died, and he was already battling cancer at this time, so it's amazing he's moving this good considering his deteriorating health. Rip Jesse🙏🏾

[@franciscordon9230]

Amazing!

[@dumplingexplorer5034]

Fact about jesse: jesse called bruce a God for saving him

[@MaxCanonStunner]

Yes.

[@axelstone3131]

Elaborate?

[@RayReiserSpeed1]

Have known Jesse since 1963. He was one of the top four judo men in America at that time and one of my Judo teachers at the Seattle a dojo, America's first dojo. Shortly after We met he would give me short lessons in straight punching and some chi sau. I met Bruce at Jesse's when he came back to Seattle for a few days. I learned a little humility when I challenged the efficacy of a 1" punch. Jesse never taught Bruce judo. There are no belts inJesse's hung fu. Perhaps an autograph?

[@WordenDefenseSystem]

Jesse open the door with encouragement to "express yourself" though the process of assessment and movement he shared, never dictated. Always humble and confident in his actions as well as his guidance for each person to seek their own destiny; simple as that! A great mentor!

[@axelstone3131]

Jesse never taught Bruce judo? Hmm. Any proof of that? Because that’s contradicting what a lot of people say. Also, any proof you met either of them? I realise this comment is 10 years old now but still would like evidence of what you claim

[@salvatoreJKD]

very good work RIP Sifu Jesse Glover

[@curtisward1036]

Salvatore I’ve been checkin out his videos mr Glover’s . I’ve training jkd since 1997, just got hip to Jesse couple years ago. When did he die.

[@SuperFriday]

I've never seen an old man move that fast.

i feel sorry for his knees problem and illness. Good spirit Man! salute!

Bruce's first ever student in the U.S.

[@germancrespo2724]

If you persist in anything..age is not an obstacle....but she slow down even the best...is the law of life

[@1965kings]

The "SHE" word or naming God as such, is coming from misinformation. It's actually God the father and the Son who teach men a lesson in humility by allowing them to age. We ain't nothing without his breath or knowledge of anything in life. It all stems from the creator. We return back to the source to explain why we did not do his will if it applies. Cheers

[@MikeS24-v4s]

Create your own video and go to Seattle and workout with some of his guys rather than complain at your computer.They will show you just how much you think know.

[@squatch545]

Is this in Montreal?

[@shniddles]

@ozzie4uk I completely agree. All the people who have been lifted out of the mediocrity of most martial arts by Jesse should start thinking about what we can do for him now. I don't see him retiring, but we need to figure out how to get people overseas to come train with him now. I know the travel alone puts a lot of strain on hm. We all need to start channeling what funds we can to assist him as he gets older. He won't ask, but he needs it. p.s.- Even sick, he still kicks ass.

[@dchen345]

He still seems fast.

[@ozdermusic]

No he is actually very ill and in my opinion he needs to retire. I trained with him recently and he could barely stand up.... He is a gentleman but I think he needs start looking after himself better.. Respect JG

[@JKDVIPER]

Fantastic jeet kune do

[@daveallen5342]

Form looked bad on the chain punches but that's the hardest dead arm punch it looks like I've ever seen. Nice. Wht is he famous...

[@TheLarryOBrien]

. ? why would anyone show off that ?

[@alcosmic]

If I make it to his age, my goal is to move at least as well

[@smiley-qb3nt]

what's the point of the bong sao as Jesse's closing I have a DVD of ed Hart performing it as well he uses it to crash the opponents guard

[@thehomefront1905]

This way of fighting is only for the films, its obvious it won't work in real life.

[@AztecUnshaven]

@@thehomefront1905 lol you have no idea what Jesse and Ed Hart were capable of.

[@thehomefront1905]

@@AztecUnshaven They wasn't capable of much I'm afraid, this demonstration says it all, this way of training only works on unskilled people, up against another fighter they would be exposed real quick, it would be horrible to see.

[@AztecUnshaven]

@@thehomefront1905 a nameless internet youtube nerd is gonna tell people what Jesse Glover was capable of? Lol, you gotta be kidding me. Jesse Glover was a multiple time Judo champion and had insane hand speed in his prime. He was challenged plenty of times, and he mopped the floor with his opponents every time. He was Bruce Lee's first student and one of his best fighters. In this video, he was in his 70s, and already had severe cancer.

[@thehomefront1905]

@@AztecUnshaven This demonstration is comical, the guy cant even hold up hes own body weight, you are so naive my friend, a complete follower, you do not have the ability to think for yourself, you've been brainwashed by your trainer, and you being a fool have believed every stupid thing hes told you, you looked upto him as a father figure and all the time he was charging you and taking your money , that bullshit doesn't happen in a modern day gym, obviously we will never cross paths and thats a blessing for you my friend because I would feel the need to slap that gormless face of yours, don't get me wrong I'm not a bully , I wouldn't inflict real pain of you , just a couple of open hand slaps and maybe a squeeze on the back of your skinny neck, just to let you know I'm incharge of the situation. Now I hope you learn something from this, I don't often give this amount of time to imbeciles, I only done it because I feel sorry for you, please don't reply, go and annoy someone else.

He hurt his leg some time back, from kicking the bag. I guess it still hurts.

[@clearcombat]

I understand Jesse is very old here but the other guys, jeez. These punches from the rear are very sloppy. Stop dropping your hands! People do miss with their strikes you know. You must know how to recover. I am really disappointed in the video.

Master Ding dong You're a douche bag. Jesse would have kicked your ass and turned your skin inside out and hung it on a coatrack. Bum? The only bum here is you. Learn to have respect for your elders. Jesse Glover was a great martial artist....and human being.
