One option he has, to ensure he doesn't continue to misuse or commercialise the name of Jeet Kune Do, is perhaps just to express his art using his own name.
I'm thinking the Way of Dill, or more specifically - Dilldo I think that would improve his student penetration. |

If he can kick your ass it doesn't matter who trained him.
If he can't kick your ass... well it doesn't matter who trained him.

 He abused his rights, seriously what type of person would wait till Bruce Lee and James Lee passed away to then doctor a letter so that it states that he was certified and no one could challenge him??? IS THAT THE TYPE OF PERSON YOU WANT AS AN INSTRUCTOR |

See I don't really care.
If I find someone who I think can teach me something I listen, If I don't think someone can teach me something I move on. It makes no difference to me where they got the material or if someone said they can teach it or not. In about 99% of the MA schools I've been too the person teaching didn't have a clue. Besides we had this discussion here many many times in the last 5 years or so

Fair enough mate, agree personality shouldnt be an issue (its something I look for though), However Dill shouldn't of used the name Jeet Kune Do to describe what he was teaching, as James Lee requested. He used JKD and Bruce Lee's name to make money - that's exploitation, further more he knew very little JKD to begin with this makes him a fraud despite whatever he can teach you.

I tend to agree with Excessive, but at the same time, you don't want to support somebody who weasels people out of their money hiding behind a brand name they had no business using. It's hard to believe somebody doing this wouldn't charge people extra beaucoup bucks because he is a "a Bruce Lee JKD lineage holder" or whatever. If somebody REALLY has the skills, they'll teach and do good, without having to flaunt some credentials they don't have. They don't need 'em. Man, lawyers and doctors get arrested or lose their licenses for that kind of s**t!

My instructor trained under one of Dill's Students. If trained with him for a couple of years and training has been good until lately. The lesson plans that come from Dill have alot of Wing Chun hand trapping in each level. I am now in level 6 under this program after two years.. And my instructor has no idea how to teach the new levels. Very Disappointing
