Bruce Lee Jeet Kune Do Jkd Martial Arts Instructors DVD training

Yes he did. He had a ranking system of levels 1 through 3, and other names at times.

Lee was well paid for his lessons, and of course you get what you pay for. Free martial arts lessons are worth exactly what you pay for them..

What is the difference in Original Jeet Kune Do that Lee taught and Jeet Kune Do Concepts

Original JKD is what Lee actually taught. Concepts are an offshoot that involve the Philippine martial arts mainly escrima.

Bruce Lee was a man of contradictions and loved the philosophy of the martial arts and of life. He said many things to get you to think for yourself and not just limit yourself to what others have said. That being stated, Lee had a set list of techniques and curriculum that he taught at his three schools that he continued to modify and had a private training manual that listed the techniques and referred to JKD as a style.

Combat modified Wing Chun Gung Fu, Boxing, French Fencing and Grappling in the final stages of JKD evolution

No he did mostly flashy moves from Tae Kwon Do he learned from his good friend Jhoon Rhee who brought TKD to the United States. And no TKD is not part of JKD.

No all kicks are low level. Lee referred to high kicks to the head like punching a man in the foot.

We have heard JKD referred to as the first MMA. That being said MMA has no structure or foundation and those who train loose interest rapidly as there is no organizational learning. There must be a method to be learned not just a bunch of moves thrown together for an end. JKD is very organized an methodical as well as philosophical. So JKD as MMA, NO.

Yes, as Lee changed JKD many times over his lifetime. Our guess is that he would have added more weapons.

Yes JKD is a well rounded martial art with three phases of learning if all original phases are included as we have done.

It is a requirement at some point that you have a partner to show us your jointlock maneuvers, takedowns, throws, and sparring moves. Your partner does not need any skill other than to be there for the block and counters and grappling moves. We have found that students progress much faster when two or more are working for the same goal and helping each other.

Why is the World Jeet Kune Do Federation training program so much more successful than all other combined

Simply put, it works. No one sells more JKD training materials than we do, period. No one has trained more JKD students than us. We take pride in what we do, helping others.

Yes you can train with us to become a teacher, or if you have training we can evaluate you for our certifications.

All of our full instructors must have current membership, a set of DVD's and the Original Jeet Kune Do Training Manual to make sure everyone teaches the original JKD system just like Bruce Lee at his three famous schools. You then send us a video of you doing the moves listed in the manual and demonstrated on the DVD's and we grade you to the level of your skill. If you have little previous training in original JKD then you can progress up the rank levels 2-12, then full instructor. The first level to begin teaching that you can begin with is apprentice instructor trainee available to all. You will need a training partner and you should send videos of your tests. We may also customize your instructor test, and request video of the requirements being demonstrated.

The first step is the apprentice trainee which is $75, then you test for the Apprentice $250, then Full Instructor $400, and for those who have been teaching real JKD for over 10 years you can contact us for master certification $500

Hey if I just order the certification online does that make me an Instructor with the WJKDF

No, you have to fulfill all of the training requirements before you get anything from us.

I have had training in JKD but I have no rank certificates because my teacher didn't be live in rank certificates cab I become an Instructor with the WJKDF

Send us your information and we will verify it with them. Even with that information we may need to see you in action in person or via video of some sort.

I an not an Instructor with the WJKDF but will you list me on your instructor list because I see that you get four million hits on your list page and I want that advertisement for my school for free.

Thank you for your wanting to be a part of our list, but we can only put our approval on those we have certified at this time.
