BJJ is 1

Chuck probably is good on the ground, but I can almost guarantee his Bjj/ wrsting skills wont hold up against someone like Arona on the ground, his wrestling will help him sprawl or keep the fight on their feet, but if Chuck gets put on his back by a good grappler, I'm not sure he could hold his own

I highly recomend crossfit

I just started getting it, it dosent realy bother me so I'm not going to worry about it

Its always best to stick with the basic stuff thats easy to perform and remember for the street IMO The basics are also great on the mat, but I always try to evolve my game while BJJ itself evolves

You guys are trying to explain this too much, JKD concepts is what you make it If you go to a JKD class you get a good general out line of what could work for you in a fight, if you don't like trapping, don't use it, use a Muay Thai style clich for control, if you don't like being on the ground, learn wrestling or BJJ so you can defend takedowns

Thats cool, we stick and knife spar in class but alway with rubber sticks/knives or the metal knives with wrist guards

Dog Brothers are hard core man, I would like to go to a gathering (Just to watch, I prefer to keep my hand intact)

We always go over new or old techniques, then drill them, then roll and try to use them

We have always sparred in class light/full contact, I have never heard of point sparring in JKD Most students in our class use a right lead and we incorporate Kali and BJJ into our JKD.

Yeah, both are great I'm a lucky guy who gets to train with black belts in both arts. The way my good friend Tulio who is a Black belt in judo and a brown belt in bjj explaind judo is that it focuses on the throws more and on the gound you have cannot be on your back for more than 30 seconds, but there are submissions like BJJ. In BJJ however we focus on the ground more, but you also score points for the takedown, and you will learn throws on all leavels in bjj, you use judo throws as well as wrestling style takedowns

"Having no way as way, limitation as limitation." Thats it if you ask me

Yeah, Chuck seems to time strikes realy well

Some of the guys in my class do MMA, so Theey show me alot of things they use, I also had trouble defending heel hooks and Knee bars at firs, but you get used to looking for them eventualy

I think you progress alot faster in tkd, but I'm not sure

Yeah, I think the tkd guys were black belts

Great, glad you are enjoying class!

I think there were tkd guys in this one too but they did not do well

Yeah, that happend a few years ago over in Polland I think, any way the promoters were trying to bridge the gap between BJJ and MMA, at least that is what I was told

How was your second class? On sparring:It may be better to just focus on a few techniques at at time, that helped me out alot

Carlson trained some excelent fighters

Silva and shogun would both destroy chuck imo

there are two different types of jkd, there is Jeet Kune Do which is the art that Bruce Lee developed and there is Jeet Kune Do concepts which is a always evolving art. This means if you go to 2 different schools that teach jkd concepts tehy my be simmilar with a few difference or they could seem almost completly different. But if you go to a Jun Fan jkd school you will learn the art as Lee himself developed it

Its bjj without a gi

Congrats bro!!!

Thanks bro didnt catch that one When is your next class
