This is a very interesting video of Ted Wong. In it he talks about some of his views on Jeet Kune Do, how he started training at Bruce Lee’s Los Angeles school, and some keen insights into his personal teaching philosophy.
There is also some nice footage of Mr. Wong working the heavy bag and focus pads.
You don’t get to see much footage of Ted Wong, so this is a real treat!
Here is an interview with original Bruce Lee student Jerry Poteet.
In this interview, Mr. Poteet talks about Bruce Lee as a practical joker, waived training fees, class atmosphere, etc.
His wife Fran is also interviewed.
“Use video to perfect technical flaws.”
If you have access to a video camera, use it! I know it can be hard to go back and watch yourself, but it can help correct technical flaws if you use it correctly.
You need to use it consistently, too. That doesn’t mean you have to video every session. But use it over a period of time. Say, every 2 weeks. This way you can track your progress.
Rare sparring footage of the late Bruce Lee in action.
Enjoy!
