Bruce Lee's Fighting Method: Why Should Martial Artists Own This DVD?

By Sam Peter


In 1974, four short books were published covering the basic principles of Bruce Lee's martial art form, Jeet Kune Do. The books could well be considered somewhat basic by today's standards, but they were rather innovative during their time. The DVD Bruce Lee's Fighting Method: The Complete Edition is a video edition of the first couple of books in the series, Self-Defense and Basic Training. The DVD has two of his original students Richard Bustillo and the late Ted Wong and it does an excellent job of conveying the main material of the two books in a visual manner.

Although reading the print books is very highly recommended because of the value they deliver, the photographs in the books don't really do justice with regards to effectively detailing the techniques that're being taught. Between static photos and moving images, the latter win clearly. This is the reason the DVD edition of the books are recommended. It provides you with the clear display of the tactics from the books in a way which is easy to follow. While you won't master the art from viewing the DVD, you will have a valuable learning resource you can use which can add to your ability to learn the art.

The Basic Training portion covers warm-ups and easy exercises to help you get the most out of your session. This section of the DVD also covers the basics of Jeet Kune Do. Among the things you are going to learn are the fighting stance position, footwork, and basic defensive and offensive moves. Consider it as a primer on Jeet Kune Do fundamentals. The Self Defense portion offers a basic look at commonplace JKD offensive and defensive techniques designed to handle aggression and street attacks. You will find this section of the DVD interesting if you've always wanted to learn some of Bruce Lee's moves and employ them in self-defense scenarios.

This DVD has got wonderful narration. The narration is in sync with what's taking place on the DVD so you will never feel that you're missing out on the important stuff. As for its production values, they are top-notch for this DVD. There are way too many martial arts educational videos that're terribly produced. The Bruce Lee's Fighting Method DVD is of high quality, however. Its producer, Black Belt Magazine, really spent big money on making certain this educational video didn't turn out looking substandard like all the others. There are people who think production values are not really that crucial. Nevertheless, a terribly produced educational video will not really be able to meet its primary goal, which is to effectively instruct its students. With this DVD, though, the quality of both video and sound is outstanding so there's no need to worry about the presentation of the material being weakened.

Serious martial artists shouldn't go without at the very least watching Bruce Lee's Fighting Method: The Complete Edition DVD once. The DVD has great insights into Jeet Kune Do, the martial art that Bruce Lee invented. Additionally, you are going to learn numerous basic self-defense moves.
