The Ultimate in Martial Arts

Some Illusion · 03-19-2007, 09:21 PM

Seeing as this is my first post here I suppose I should first introduce myself. My name is Paul and, I am from Tennessee. I have been dabling in the martial arts for some time now but I have yet to really stick with anything long term. Each art that I have tried I have loved.. however, none have really been what I'm searching for I guess. Recently though I have been doing a good amount of research on Jeet Kun Do. My thirst to learn everything I can about Bruce Lee, his philosophy, and his art tends to grow the more I learn about it. It seems to be exactly what I want out of a martial art. Sadly though noone anywhere near where I live teaches it. Also, I have heard that it is very hard to find true Jun Fan Jeet Kun Do teaching and that much of it has been watered down and changed from what its supposed to be. I am not against moving to another state though in order to persue my own dreams and self discovery. Though I am simply poor country boy I am still certain that its well within my grasp.

I guess my questions are basicly.. where can I go for such training? and Would it be possible to train under such masters as Dan Inosanto or Richard Bustillo or any of Bruce Lees other original students? Or would that be reaching a little to far?

Anyway, thanks for taking the time to read my post.

Thats awesome! I am actually just outside the Cookeville area, which I guess that would be about an hour to an hour and a half drive. I looked at the website and everything looks really great. Thanks so much!

Your welcome!!! I study under Sifu Reed's student. His student moved here to San Antonio and started give private lessons. I've been his student for about six month's and i've learned more from him in six month's then i did when i was in kenpo for a year. Good stuff. He dosen't teach the JDk concepts - it's JFJKD
