I think Bruce Lee adapted this style to his Jeet Kune Do’s iconic jump side-kick. And that means his martial art was influenced a lot by Savate’s kick techniques, that’s for sure!
That is certainly the most iconic instance, there is quite a bit more of it besides. Whether it was the composition of combinations, footwork, or concepts it heavily influenced the core of JKD and other martial arts besides. Interestingly enough for myself I went looking for Savate and found JKD, rather than the other way around.
Great video bro, cheers
Thanks so much! Appreciate you stopping by.
