ENCYCLOPEDIA OF JEET KUNE DO
From A to Z (Revised Edition)
By Chris Kent
Jeet Kune Do is the art of
expressing the human body in combative form.
It is not a “style” or “system” of martial
art as conventionally defined. Nor is it
simply an eclectic conglomeration of
fighting techniques from various arts
combined with philosophical dogma that is
convenient. Jeet Kune Do is a rational, well
thought-out approach to “total” martial art
training.
The Encylopedia of Jeet Kune Do is designed
to serve as a resource guide, not only for
the person training in Jeet Kune Do, but for
any martial artist sincerely interested in
enhancing his or her performance and
achieving one’s full potential.
Many of the principles and training methods
illustrated in one section or chapter of
this book can and should be cross-referenced
with motions or actions in another. The goal
is for you, the reader, to use this book to
improve your understanding and working
knowledge of the art, science, and
philosophy of unarmed combat known as Jeet
Kune Do. Remember, it’s not how much you
absorb, but how much of what you’ve absorbed
that you can apply “alively” that counts.

Chris Kent, in 1973 at age 17, became
the youngest and final member admitted into Dan Inosanto’s fabled
“Backyard JKD” group. He studied with and assisted Inosanto for more
than 13 years, mastering his skills and traveling extensively, both
nationally and internationally, while serving as Dan’s personal
assistant for seminars and public exhibitions. In 1982, he was one
of the first students to be awarded the prestigious title of Full
Instructor in Jeet Kune Do.
For more than 35 years, Chris Kent has been intimately involved in
Jeet Kune Do and is recognized as one of the few people who has
total comprehension of the art and philosophy, including what is
referred to as the “style-less style.” As one of the preeminent
torchbearers of the art around the world, he remains at the
forefront of perpetuating Jeet Kune Do’s art and philosophy, and is
considered by many to be one of the most knowledgeable instructors
in the world. |
