      X Brown First , you can ad some muscles to your leg and then Try to send the kick from tendons. When you kick, Try to implicare your whole body behind your leg. Twist your body at the angel kick. This makes the kick faster and stronger.

    JKD makes so much sense to me. When I started martial arts as a child, it was "learn this kata", "practice this block and yell Kiah", etc. But JKD is slam, bam, tbank ya ma'am. I love it.

    Bruce Lee was also a master of the art of distraction, or pulsing, that froze & opened up his opponents for a fraction of a second to his economical strikes, which is why he emphasized speed & directness.

I lived in a prodominately hispanic community and every fight there was two guys circling, trash talking, playing first hit chicken, and as soon as the shirts are off someones going in ends in a hugging match on the pavement.

  • @byronmedina5759
    @byronmedina5759 Před 6 lety

    Fantastic topic Dan and Octavio. The point I always stress in my interpretation of Economy of Motion is also to not 'chase' the target, itself. Not only does this give the us the most efficient and innate reaction to a force coming our way -- we also can take advantage of that incoming force and apply inertia, which results in more impact. Arbitrary movements have their place, but to a minimum for conservation of energy and not get caught in a bad step. Thank you again for a clear video over the concept of Economy of Motion.

    Economy of motion is a straight line, a curve line, the shortest distance between two points, the longest weapon to the nearest target. Using the least amount of effort, while maximizing as much force. Economy of motion also applies to the signal sent from the brain to your hand. The simpler your intention (Just think hit) the faster you'll be.

  • @Pipes1977
    @Pipes1977 Před 6 lety

    I've found efficient use of your energy is essential. Specifically when facing larger or more skilled opponents. I've found it especially apparent in grappling, if I can force them to carry my weight instead of me theirs. They may be larger, stronger and more talented, but once exhausted all of those advantages are moot. The winner is the one who doesn't give up.

    Get in, wail on the dude, get out. That's how it should be!!
    I will say, I would LOVE for someone to really break down the idea of explosive power while staying relaxed. I mean, almost a frame-by-frame example. I get the idea of staying relaxed to create some speed, but there's always the point where I start to use more muscle, trying to go faster. I know that's not the right answer, but I don't know how to correct it.

    Sifu, would you make a video about "Cultivation of JKD" ?

  • @nash694
    @nash694 Před 6 lety

    I think always trying to be more efficient in cultivation, and practice is 100% the thing to do. I also loved the video. My take however is that it can be a trap if you take it to the extreme. You can get carried away with economy in mind and not realize as you make things more efficient in one area you make it less in others. So I thinks it's something that takes a lot of sensitivity in cultivating. Because what works, and what is called of the fighter might not seem efficient or economical. Really good video though. That's just my opinion too.

    Are you aware of the shoes and pants your sifu is wearing? Also have you thought about making a video about appropriate martial arts training wear? Like sweatpants, shoes, etc. I'm looking for a pair of nice athletic sweats that won't rip in the seam from kicking.

  • @Hotpocketmountiandew
    @Hotpocketmountiandew Před 6 lety

    I think it's an illusion. It seems like trading speed and power. When It's more like properly setting up a fulcrum. Your power comes from muscles and not tensing up, throwing a heighmaker. Sure the heighmaker is stronger and it uses a ton of energy. If you look at it from a more long term picture version of power in a fight. A hundred cracking snaps to the face is more devastating than 5 heighmakers. When executed properly.
    And one let's you keep going while the other leaves you exposed.
    Like a fast-food job may seem right at 16 because you need money. When doing that can lead you to losing face and opportunities and expose you to those people in a mastermind aspect. You become a fast food employee.

  • @walterevans2118
    @walterevans2118 Před 6 lety

    I believe that in streamlined efficient JKD economy of motion would be used to eliminate trapping(failed attack) & other complexity by staying DETATCHED like a fencer & closing in fast on DECISIVE targets.....We know that Bruce didn't do any slip then hit moves (passive blocks) his blocks were a STRIKE (doing them simultaneously) However , I believe that in a life threatening situation a long Knee strike would be EVEN MORE decisively simple & direct than a simultaneous block/strike. Simpler way. As is said here there are some who foolishly apply MMA sport to the street bouncing around uneconomically when they should be using economy to DECISIVE targets to end danger fast. On the Street as you say there could be multiple attackers & going to the ground could be DEADLY. & the LAST thing anybody should be doing....I would say we do not just need power but decisive targets (knees, groin, eyes)...Punching in the face might NOT be decisive enough in a life threatening situation. The only criticism I would have is this....In a life threatening situation why would the gentleman here hit the leg like that with a crack stun to bring them down to follow up with a punch ?......That's TWO moves (both non decisive targets)....Why not do it more SIMPLY in only ONE motion ?...ie - A kick to the kneecap like Bruce Lee showed in LONGSTREET ?.....That's how a SAMURAI would do it ...ONE shot with no non-decisive overkill moves....SIMPLE. Just a thought.

    Thank you Dan and Octavio, another excellent video. Today at class I was talking about this with another student, we were practicing striking from anywhere.
    Don’t have to wind up, just be loose, bam! Explode and let your hip turn and stance help. Put a snap/pop/micro-acceleration into the strike.
    A different advanced student called it “inch everything” because it isn’t only with punches, you can quick strike with jut, pak, tan, biu, elbow, laan sau or bong, po pai, knee, shin, foot, head, etc.

  • @Devi_Shammuramat
    @Devi_Shammuramat Před 6 lety

    I think it's a lot safer to defend & neutralise all the aggressor's attack, rather than risk going all-out: trading punches against larger opponent. Because our kind of defense is based on attack-motions, and can hurt / disable the opponent's appendages. Therefore, only matter of time before he literally becomes an 'open target'.

    @UnexpectedWonder Před 5 lety

    Where I'll disagree with the Sensei is the purpose of the "bouncing," "dancing," and stancing up. In most scenarios, I'm the better Fighter than my challenger or attacker. Pretty much any time I've stanced to fight it was a finally warning that I was Skilled. If the opponent did attack, it was either a weak jab or an instant attempt @ a takedown or tackle. Most folks these Days can't Throw Hands and don't want an Ass whoopin'. Many are scared of opposition, especially if you can take a Punch. Most Street Fights last less than 30 seconds. Most folks have terribly Stamina. It simply depends upon your approach. I'm personally not one to initiate a Fight.

  • @microbakery9085
    @microbakery9085 Před 6 lety

    Dan, I always have a question after seeing the "slip and punch" upon the opponent throws a punch.
    Sifu's stance is sort of off center (body isn't perpendicular to the ground). In your instructions you have mentioned that do not bend the body sidway otherwise the other guy can just throw (or push) you off balance.
    Would you share your thoughts on that? Many thanks.

    Im 5 foot 11 inch tall, My opponent was about 6 " 4. This was at a kung fu grading. I just launched at him fist flying he was flustered and tried a turning kick at my head, I countered with a back thrust. yeh that was very satisfying seeing a big guy stumbling back ha ha. Now whats the point in me telling you? Big guy was flustered his technique was not good, this is common with big bully's, they dont expect a littler opponent to be not afraid of them. This video is very good it describes the same sort of thing. Namely a opponent wants to hurt you, so you finish it quickly you dont prance around like an idiot!!!

    @colinetheridge4916 Před 6 lety

    Hi dan, love the Muhammed Ali/Bruce Lee teeshirt. I see the way forward as a mixture of isometric training, for muscle maturing by increasing the number of motor units (this is effectively what the held animal forms in Kung Fu are about) and repetition training to gain muscle memory in the cerebellum part of the brain; movment without conscious thought.. And of course H I I T for overall fitness, a fit body is a fit mind. This is probably your philosopy already, but I felt the need to break it down into components, which can be used with very little equipment and and no training partner.
