What makes jkd different from other arts, specifically kung fu from which bruce lee originated?[/QUOTE]
The difference, I believe, is in it's approach to self defense. JKD doesn't look at combat from any one angle in particular, its looks at everything from
every angle. Its about learning to see the truth, which is ever changing, so therefor a style is a crystalized method of fighting, but jkd encouraged constant growth and is really like water, very flexible and allows one to adapt to the situation.
JKD really can't be compared to any style, its the exact opposite that.
I don't know if you read the topic "What is JKD" in the MA Talk forum, so I'll post the link here:
