Jeet Kune Do Seminars & Workshops

 
The world of Jeet Kune Do, is known sometimes for heated arguments about what JKD is, the division between 'original' and 'concepts' JKD is only a part of the discussion. Many times it also involves groups and individuals who believe that JKD is not an art at all, but just a philosphy, and you can do whatever you fancy.

Thankfully, there are still many opportunities to be taught by knowledgable instructors that are capable to set the record straight, and to come together and set up a unified experience for all to learn and enjoy.

One such event was held last weekend in New York, USA.  Three instructors, One Art.  Instructors were sifu Richard Torres, sifu Joaquin Marcelo, and sifu Octavio Quintero, and set up a workshop with over 100 participants. 

Sadly I was unable to attend but my instructors and many of my JKD friends were there, but it demonstrates that the world of JKD is more unified than some people might think. The more these events are held, the more I hope it will silence the critics, and more understanding of the art will be perpetuated. 

Your next opportunity is this month, in Leiden the Netherlands, where sifu Richard Torres will hold a workshop on Saturday October 18th.   Be there!

Walk On!
