Jeet Kune Do is also known as Jeet Kun do or JKD and reveals a hybrid
philosophy of martial arts that was developed by the master and actor Bruce
Lee. JKD was created in the 60s and adds in itself several styles and martial
techniques, although it does not have a specific style.
The term Jeet kune is a Chinese word meaning " Way of the Intercepting the fist " and is associated with how all fighters should be prepared and prepared for real combat situations.
The philosophy of Jeet kune do
For Bruce Lee, Jeet kune is a personal method that develops within each person and his philosophy is not limited to a set of movements, but to the "freedom of expression" that a fighter has and manifests in combat. A fighter must be able to respond spontaneously to any type of situation and must do so without the limitation of a particular martial art. Therefore, the practitioner must adapt the style to his body and not the body to the style.
With this process, master Bruce Lee sought to demonstrate that a fighter does not need to mechanically master all the techniques of a particular martial art because the human body can respond in a more efficient way by using various techniques together. Lee likened his philosophy to the work of a sculptor and indicated that he works the clay to have a unique piece and Jeet kune Do "throw away all that is useless" and works only what is essential for the best performance of a fighter in any type of combat.
Full Contact Total Combat began to be developed by Bruce Lee in the late 1960s
and the arts that influenced this type of work were of various structures and
backgrounds; Western Boxing, Thai Boxing (Muay Thai), French Savate, Philippine
Sikaran, Chinese Kung Fu from the north and south, among other styles.
