Jeet kuen do in london?

Question

Does anyone know where they teach Jeet Kuen Do in London? I would prefer somewhere in North/Central London. Anyone have any comments on this style?

Answer 1

As said Bobby Breen is the man!!! Top instructors there too!!!

Good direct links to Dan Inosanto, One of Bruce's students and teachers

I also find it funny that Hood_12 thinks that JKD was supposed to be a style, but it was un finished. It was never meant to be a style as such, just a concept, your own peception a matial arts and what worked for you! Your JKD would be different to the next guys!!

Bruce didn't want it to be a style that was passed on but a way of thinking, to use what works for you and forget what doesn't.

Answer 2

Hi there any art is worth giving a try but Bluto Blutarsky13 has a valid point in that Bruce never intended it to be a style it was his philosophy on fighting. He even says this in the end chapter of the tao of jeet kune do. The first book he wrote on the subject. The art is really about taking what you know and stripping away the garbage. More for less so to speak and use everything you can that works. You would be better off finding a real wing chun school which was bruces foundation. Best wishes idai

Answer 3

I find it funny that people claim that they teach a style that was never fully developed. The principles are there, but to call it an art when the master died half way to completion of said art isn't right. It should just be adaption fighting... nothing more.
