Jeet Kune Do

So lately I have been looking at different workouts to start after me and some other friends get done with the insanity workout. I happened across Jet lee's fighting style. He created it after learning several styles of fighting.
I bring it up because i believe it might relate to how we should play, or at least how we could play.

here are some principles and I will write more later:
  • best defense is a strong offense
  • learning to intercept through reading your opponents body motion
  • "absorb what is useful;Disregard that which is useless"
  • Economy of motion- wasting no time on fancy moves
  • never block-strike your opponent to stop kicks and hits
  • simultaneous parry and punch
  • limit the opponent to attack with the same arm by trapping the other
  • Progressive Indirect attack
  • Attack by Combination
  • Attack by Drawing
the 3 parts
  1. efficiency-attack without detour
  2. directness-straight to the point
  3. simplicity- think in uncomplicated manner to flow like water
