bushido_man96 Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 Dan Inosantos maybe drawing from 20-30 different arts , but jkd is based on WC,fencing and western boxing!!Wouldn't it be more correct to say that JKD is based of some of the concepts of these arts, as opposed to the arts themselves? https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bushido_man96 Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 It's all good!The reason that I say concepts, is mainly due to the Fencing analogy. In order to be fencing, you need a foil. JKD doesn't use one. And, I don't think that knowing Lee's philosophies on things he would state that JKD is based on this style, this style, and this style. He would simply say it is "his style" and "your style."That's enough philosophy out of me for the day! https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbells Posted February 22, 2008 Author Share Posted February 22, 2008 you are correct, and my philosophical take These styles were taken from to make a base/foundation from which each individual is to build upon and make their ownwooooo my head hurts Close the gap and destroy!

yingampyang Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 Yes that is coorect Bruce lee would say that the style is very flexabable , and that u should make it something of your own. I think that there is no 1 style , and that to truly become a great martial artist and person you must take information from where ever you can.
