Are you ready to get a great workout, and learn to throw a REAL PUNCH!
JKD is the philosophy & concepts developed by the legendary Bruce Lee and continued to be evolved after his death by Lee's top student, Sifu Dan Inosanto.
You’ll watch yourself gain confidence, become more athletic, flexible, and coordinated, while we teach you martial arts concepts from around the world. You’ll learn punches, kicks, elbows, knees, hand-trapping, clinching, and easy safe takedowns. Perfect for both Men & Women!
JKD Concepts believes in the Philosophy that the art should serve the student, not the student serving the art... What's that mean? It means a person should learn from a variety of martial arts and find what suits them best.
You will learn to defend yourself from a standing position by cross-training the methods of many martial arts from around the world. Whether we’re sweatin’ it out with different Kickboxing styles like Muay Thai & Panantukan (Thai & Filipino Boxing), learning to move your hands at lightning speed with the techniques of Wing Chun & Jun Fan Gung Fu (Ip Man & Bruce Lee’s arts’), grabbing and controlling your opponent with the Clinching skills of Combat Submission Wrestling, or gracefully sweeping your opponent off their feet with Indonesian Silat, you are sure to enjoy this energetic broad spectrum of learning.
