Jeet Kune Do

If the Traditional Martial Arts route (Kempo, Uniforms, Belts, Katas, etc.) is not for you, maybe you'll enjoy our Jeet Kune Do Program. Jeet Kune Do or JKD is the Martial Art created by Bruce Lee and is often considered the beginnings of MMA. Before his death, Bruce was training with Martial Artists from many different styles: Boxing, Jiu Jitsu, Kempo, Kali, etc. He created Jeet Kune Do with the main idea being that no one art makes a complete fighter. He took the best pieces of the arts that he trained and added them to his own styles to create Jeet Kune Do. 

Our Jeet Kune Do program comes from Jack Giallanella who has been in over 500 MMA fights (before many of the rules were put into place). This program is a mix of Boxing, Muay Thai, Jiu Jitsu, Wrestling, Kali, and Savate. Jack believes that JKD lost some of its reputation due to schools teaching it without testing the moves in combat or at least Sparring. So the focus is that the moves we do are only ones that can be done in a combat scenario. We only teach moves that we could do in Sparring or combat. 

This program is designed to prepare you for Self Defense or if you wanted to compete in an MMA fight.
