ps1 Posted October 21, 2006 Share Posted October 21, 2006 Wing chun was the style of gung fu he studied with Yip Man. After that he began dabbeling in many combat systems (Boxing, wrestling, jujitsu and probably others) before creating Jeet Kun Do.

bushido_man96 Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 Yep, Wing Chun was his original style. He then studied various forms, and found great value in boxing and grappling. He was not a big fan of the point tournaments at the time, and was never recorded as competing. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLueDevil Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 One of the most interesting I found was that he studied fencing. He stayed with Ed Parker for a little while when he first started out, so Im sure there is some American Kenpo influence There is no teacher but the enemy.

Jiffy Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 As mentioned Yip Man was his original instructor, but he did not stay with him for a long time. Bruce moved from school to school studying various elements. He eventually settled on a style based primarily on principles from Wing Chun, Western Wrestling, Western Boxing and Fencing. The mind is like a parachute, it only works when it's open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
