Bruce Lee's Fighting Method: Why Must Martial Artists Watch This DVD?

By Sam Peter


Way back in 1974, four books that served as introductory guides on Bruce Lee's Jeet Kune Do were released. The books could well be deemed somewhat general by today's standards, but they were quite revolutionary during their time. A couple of these books, Self-Defense and Basic Training, are the basis of the Bruce Lee's Fighting Method: The Complete Edition DVD. Richard Bustillo and Ted Wong, two of Bruce Lee's very first students, are featured in the DVD. The main material in the books are conveyed pretty nicely in the DVD.

Although reading the books is strongly recommended as they have a whole lot value to offer, still pictures in a book do not always do justice in terms of being able to effectively detail the techniques being instructed. Moving images are much more effective in showing students the techniques. As a result, the book's DVD edition is extremely valuable. It provides you with the clear display of the techniques from the books in a way which is very easy to follow. Although you won't master the art from watching the DVD, you'll have a valuable learning resource available which can supplement your ability to master the art.

The Basic Training portion covers warm-ups and basic exercises to help you get the most out of your session. Jeet Kune Do basics are also dealt with in this portion of the DVD. The On-Guard (fighting) position, footwork, and basic defense and offense are only some of the Jeet Kune Do basics you'll learn. Basically, you can consider this as an introduction to Jeet Kune Do. In the DVD's Self Defense portion, you will get an introduction to the popular Jeet Kune Do moves, both offensive and defensive, which are specifically designed for handling street attacks and aggressive attackers. You will find this portion of the DVD interesting if you have always wanted to learn a couple of Bruce Lee's moves and employ them in self-defense scenarios.

This DVD features great narration. The narrator clearly tells what's occurring as you watch the DVD so you're not going to feel that you are missing out on anything vital. The production values are rather solid. There are too many martial arts training videos which are poorly produced. The Bruce Lee's Fighting Method DVD is of high quality, however. Its producer, Black Belt Magazine, actually spent decent money on ensuring this educational video didn't wind up looking substandard like all the others. There are individuals who think production values aren't really that vital. Nonetheless, a poorly produced instructional video won't really be able to meet its main goal, which is to effectively instruct its students. With this DVD, you won't ever have to worry about video and sound quality lacking to the point it undermines the presentation of the material.

If you happen to be a serious martial artist, make certain you've got Bruce Lee's Fighting Method: The Complete Edition DVD on your shelf. It's a must-have classic instructional video. It will offer you insights into Bruce Lee's Jeet Kune Do, and also learn basic self-defense.
