Bruce's original conception of JKD was to make it no style, just Martial Art that takes all the dimentions of fighting, sadly many people have used his name and extorted and went against his teachings and made JKD into a STYLE. So now it is categorized as a style do to the people who taught his art and went against his original intentions and developed JKD into a style, which Bruce did not want.

You are right Little, which is what I thought I was stating in my original post!!! "It is basically no style"

Yes you are correct. That was Bruce's original intentions, but sadly after he died, many exploited Jeet Kune Do and turned it into something Bruce didn't want, a style.

Yes, that is exactely right. But I like the teaching of concepts!!!! aka Jeet Kune Do concepts, having no way as a way, having no style as a style....sad to say I hardly ever get to talk about these things, and I love talking martial arts and philosophy!!!! Lets keep chatting little!!!

Yes I love JKD Concepts as well. One of the very few people who haven't extorted Bruce's art is Guru Dan Inosanto.
Pretty good for a 17 year old kid eh Tenshin.
I love chatting Martial Art's with people, I am glad you are around Tenshin.

As I m glad you are too Little. And I do not look at age, only ability and knowledge. And I think Dan Inosanto is awsome, he in my opinion, has kept things pure with respect to Bruce Lee and Jeet Kune Do Concepts.

Yes Dan is a great Martial Artist, also Richard Bustillo, Jerry Poteet, Ted Wong, all helped to keep the JKD flame alive.
