Hey guys, <br><br> I was reading an article today
about the philosophy of JKD. I was just wondering what
everybody enjoyd more about Jun Fan Gung Fu/Jeet Kune Do
the philosophy of the art and experienceing other
martial arts or just doing the art of Jun Fan gung Fu
itself. Just some food for
thought.<br><br>-Jeetkunedoconcepts

Hey Brett<br><br> Well i hate to use this qoute
because it's been used so many times but "You must get in
the water and swim to become good at swiming". Same
is true from martial arts and alot of other everyday
activities. If we never practiced walking when we where
little then i don't know if we would be walking right
now. The point is i think in the middle to later
stages of training i think sparring i necessary. You
will never be able to handle a real street situation
if you do not know what to expect. I don't mean soft
little sparring i think all out anything goes (with
protection ofcourse) sparring. There is a great article
about this on sifu Burton Richardsons website, i don't
remember the link off hand but i will post it in the next
few days.<br><br>That's my
opinion.<br>-jeetkunedoconcepts

What do you think. Can a person get what they desire from a school that does not
spar? Or is contact needed to get the technique across to the students.

Jun Fan Jeet Kune Do Nucleus member Sifu Richard
Bustillo will be holding a JFJKD seminar @ The IMB Academy
on Saturday, November 13, 1999 from 1pm to 5pm. Fee
$75.00 at the door or $65.00 before November 1st. For
more info contact The IMB Academy. The IMB Academy
website can be accessed to the left of this message in
the links section.

You know there are a couple of places on the net
that you can get plans for them. My wife's uncle said
that he would build one with me. When I get home I
will try and find where the plans are that I have, and
I will send them to you.

Yeah i wish i had a dummy than it would be no problem.  The only thing is that
they're so darn expensive.<br><br>-jeetkunedoconcepts

I'm guessing that if you have a dummy, that could help, work it with your eyes
closed...

If you guys have any photos related to junfan or
any other martial arts lets fill the directories
up.<br><br>I'm a web designer and i'm thinking of doing a big
web site on the various martial arts of Jun Fan Gung
Fu all maybe just all martial arts in general. If
you guys have any sugestions or ideas or maybe want
to help me out email me or post a
message.<br><br>thanks<br>-jeetkunedoconcepts

hey guys<br><br> if you like Jan Fan Gung Fu so
much and practicing sticks try lomaceo escrima, kali,
and silat the stick techniques in escrima are awesome
and the knife and empty hand techniques of kali and
silat are something great to see too. They are both
taught by sifu Dan Inasanto and usually part of JKD
schools.<br><br>Just something to keep in mind for your own
JKD<br><br>-jeetkunedoconcepts

Cool, I'm a Cabales Serrada practitioner as well.
Yeah, learning stick stuff is great, you can never
learn enough. Right now though, it seems like I don't
have much time to do anything! Which sucks since I
really miss training on a regular basis. I hope to soon,
I hope, I hope!

I think my favorite aspect of jeet kune do is its straight forward simplicity. I
also love learning the sticks.

Hey I just posted the previous message..sorry about the short incomplete
sentences...used to games style speak, or ICQ chat.

I dont' train with anybody of Public stature like
like Richard Bustillo, or Dan Inosanto. I'd like to
though. My teacher is a former student of Jesse Glover
from way, way, back. He has worked with Dan and
others. <br>He trained us in what he called Non-Classical
Wing Chun. Mostly because of his overwhelming respect
for Jesse. Many of the concepts we are taught are
"JKD" though, and I personally believe in JKD and what
it has to offer!<br>So I can't wait to
converse.<br>reddingo99

Yes Sifu Bustillo teaches us at every class,unless he is out of town for a
seminar or other function.And yes he is very good.

Do you actually get to train with sifu bustillo or is it mostly with one of his
apprentices, i read some articles on him he looks pretty damn
good.<br><br>-jeetkunedoconcepts

Guru Dan Inosanto and Sifu Richard Bustillo used to be partners. The Inosanto
Academy is close also.<br>                 Brett

I train under Johnny Beheler(certified by Guro Inosanto and Francis Fong)in
Spartanburg SC and occasionaly Maha Guru Victor DeThouars.

Who does everyone train under? I train under Sifu Richard Bustillo at I.M.B.
Academy in Torrance Ca

Yeah we do Kali also but not as much as the
WingChun and JKD. I prefer the JFGF andJJKDC to the
WingChun though, WingChun just doesnt seem to fit me very
well but it has helped with my JKD.<br><br>AllenJKD

Yeah that's pretty cool. do you also take any
other classes like kali silat or muay thai. i'm
guessing that your school most likely teaches those styles
too. i'd like to take muay thai for the excellent
conditioning and powerful kicking. someday if i can make some
more time for myself i hope too. also hope to teach
JKDC and JFGF someday too. but that's still years
away. first i want to concentrate on my wing chun so
when i do JFGF full time my trapping hands will be at
their best. that's what bruce did supposedly and i
think it is the best way to go because you learn the
proper forms, and structure for all the techniques and
you understand them
better.<br><br>-jeetkunedoconcepts

well we have something in common..my instructor
is certified by Sifu Fong in WingChun and By Guro
Dan inJunFan gungFu,JKD Concepts And Kali. Whent to
one of Sifu Dans seminars in Columbia SC a little
while ago, great experience.<br><br>AllenJKD

Yes, <br> My instructor is also certified under
sifu francis fong and sifu dan inasanto. All of the
wing chun that we train comes basically from sifu
fongs way and the JKD thai boxing and filipino arts
come from sifu inasanto. We recently had sifu fong and
sifu inasanto here at our school for a seminar, but i
wasn't able to make it but i <br>hear that sifu fongs
wing chun is incredible. they're coming back next year
and i won't miss that one for the world.<br><br>

Do you study at Francis Fongs school? My instructor is certified under Sifu
Fong. I was just wondering since you included him in that picture.

seven months. I have been doing one martial art or
another for over 9 yrs.<br><br>if you have any
