Bruce Lee’s Fighting Method: Basic Training & Self Defense Techniques

Bruce Lee, the legend of martial arts and motion pictures, first studied Wing Chun Kung Fu in Hong Kong under the tutelage of Yip Man. When he came to the United States, Lee developed a concept of martial arts for the individual man that he labeled Jeet Kune Do – the way of the intercepting fist. His first book, The Tao of Jeet Kune Do, became a standard in the martial arts field. It was followed by Bruce Lee s Fighting Method a series of four volumes complied by Lee s friend and student M. Uyehara. This DVD covers the first two volumes of Lee s fighting method Basic Training and Self-Defense Techniques. Topics include warm-ups, basic exercises, on-guard positions, footwork, power training, speed training and self-defense techniques. Demonstrating the techniques in this DVD presentation are Ted Wong and Richard Bustillo. Wong trained with Lee toward the later stages of Jeet Kune Do s development, becoming Lee s last major private student. He appeared with Lee in the photo techniques of the Bruce Lee s Fighting Method books and is considered to be Lee s protégé, being one of four to receive direct certification from Lee. After Lee s death, Wong chose not to teach Jeet Kune Do publicly, instead establishing a semiprivate, nonprofit school in San Francisco in 1990. Bustillo is the director and co-founder of the International Martial Arts and Boxing Academy in Carson, California. He has more than 30 years of experience in the martial arts, is a senior instructor of Lee s Jeet Kune Do concepts and as a member of the Black Belt Hall of Fame, is always in high demand on the international martial arts seminar circuit.

Bruce Lee’s Fighting Method: Basic Training & Self Defense Techniques Reviews

Review by Democritus:

Bruce Lee’s Fighting Method

Performances by Ted Wong and Richard Bustillo

This is a video adaptation of Bruce Lee’s Fighting Method Volume 2 – Basic Training and Volume 1 – Self Defense Techniques. Volume 2′s warm up exercise content makes it logical to reverse the order of demonstration on video just as if you were attending a martial art class. The first 33 minutes of the video demonstrate the Basic Training exercises and moves in volume 2. The remainder of the video is the demonstration of moves to defend and counter against attacks as Bruce Lee demonstrated in the Self Defense volume 1. The Video is 52 minutes long.

There was an effort to keep the video consistent with the text of the books by Bruce Lee and M. Uyehara as evidenced by the narration in the video coming directly from the books them selves. Ted Wong and Richard Bustillo never speak in the video but perform the all the moves in good form well worth watching. The narration was done by Earl Binford. Ted Wong was one of the original students of Bruce Lee. You can see him in the book photos demonstrating the moves of the assailant opposite to Bruce Lee.

Basic Training demonstrates warm up exercises, fighting stance position and posture, guard positioning of the hands, foot work, power and speed training methods and kicking exercises.

Self Defense demonstrates 3 defense counter moves to surprise attacks, 6 counters to an unarmed assailant, 9 counters to being grabbed by an assailant, 9 counter moves against choke holds and hugs by an assailant, and 7 counter moves against armed assailants wielding against a club, a staff, a knife and a pistol, and 5 counters to an assailant while being caught in a vulnerable situations.

Review by furhteeadogadoo:

This is a very well put together film, featuring two of Bruce Lee’s original students Ted Wong and Richard Bustillo, who will help your education in Bruce Lee’s art. You will be a more proficient fighter after experimenting with the techniques learnt in the film. The film gets you going you by taking you through a warm up and then basic exercises that can be practiced alone or with a partner. You will then be shown fundamentals such as stancing, footwork, punches, kicks, power and speed training and later a self defence section that give you an example of how some of these techniques can be applied in an actual fighting situation. This film is essentially a video adaptation of the book, Bruce Lee’s Fighting Method Volume 2. For experienced martial artists it is certainly worth watching for the reason of viewing some of the methods presented in action, and the film is a wonderful supplementation for begginers and experienced practitioners. The video is certainly helpful and will prove to be a useful aid in your jeet kune do training! Highly reccomended!

Fighting Instructions, 1530-1816

The inaccessibility of the official Fighting Instructions from time to time issued to the fleet has long been a recognised stumbling-block to students of naval history. Only a few copies of them were generally known to exist; fewer still could readily be consulted by the public, and of these the best known had been wrongly dated.

The Essential Qigong Training Course: 100 Days to Increase Energy, Physical Health and Spiritual Well-Being Reviews

Review by Mark Boudreau:

Finally, a great course teaching all the things about Qi-Gong that I’ve always heard about but could never get anyone to explain. This course touches on all the essential basic and more advanced qigong excersises.There are many old, traditional qigong excersises taught and explained in a well defined step by step program. A top quality product. Thank you Ken Cohen!

Review by Satia Renee:

This cd and dvd collection takes qigong seriously enough to treat the practice as a discipline. There is a wealth of information and excercises included. Cohen introduces the exercises and meditations slowly, with solid foundational explanations. More exercises are introduced gradually allowing the student to at least feel familiar with each discipline before a new one is introduced. Suggestions for variations are also made, allowing people of different physical abilities to work with the exercises. Although I did not initially feel the qi energy as I did the exercises, after a couple of weeks I began to feel it and then gradually felt it every time I did the prescribed meditations, etc. The introduction of new exercises keeps this 100 days course from becoming boring. An excellent resource for anyone interested in qigong as a form of energy practice for healing.
