Dan Lok Finally master ur teaching alone i missed ur videos teaching by urself so much.Hey dan do some videos on jkd techniques that can be used on an mma fighter or boxer cuz these punches look awesome but when we try it on any person he just bends his head to the side nd then throws a hook nd we r dead.
Hi there, Dan. Thanks so much for the time and the demonstrations that you provide to people. Especially for free. May I ask where you get the headgear and chest protection in this video? Thank you again.
One of the, if not the BEST TEACHERS’ OF “ANYTHING” on TH-cam! Especially in J.K.D. ! I would love to train with this guy just to pick his brain on different subjects!! 🧠💪💪👍
Dan I love your channel so much. I have been a JKD student for about 10 years with so much to still learn. I love the entrepreneur information as well.
Thanks bro I appreciate that instruction a lot of people in the streets think it's cool or you're tougher man if you swing the way that is incorrect. your way is correct which keeps you safe and damages at the same time
Dan Lok, you have a unique style altogether and your level of confidence is what i like in watching your videos. As for seeing the content, i have learnt the art of avoiding a fight. But still, your tips very handy. Impressive you are, Dan Lok, you are doing great! 🤝
-The snap of the body upon throwing the rear punch looks like a shoulder fake. -In my opinion, the vertical punch is most effective because the elbow is much closer to the body unlike a horizontal punch. again, thanks for the free lesson sifu.
This person Dan seem very sincere respectful guy he is very skillful to teach and humble he care for people and look for that best in anybody...be bless a leader to follow
Love the new jkd hq and ofcourse without any saying your content and above all your attitude. I have downloaded all the videos and practice them just to get it down in my subconscious mind to get it in my reflexes and the muscle memory. Thanks for the videos
I am a student of the arts as well...since a kid. ..im very glad i ran across your channel....great j.k.d.instructions and awesome business tips! Im subscribed and hit the notification bell ! Keep them coming! Great work !
Thanks for posting these great body mechanic videos. Im from a different style of Kung Fu and love getting to see how others arts view and practice technique. Not matter what art you practice, truth is truth
@Dan lok i appreciate your your videos on jeet kune do ive been practicing for 7 years on and off ive been putting alot of tactical jkd training to use in my sparring matches also being relexed and. Being non telegraphcal with my techniques i gotta say that your videos are greatly appreciated keep doing the good work.
Thank you for your excellent classes. I am practicing two years ago in Cartagena de Indias, Colombia; and your technical predictions have been very useful for me.
I am a great fan of kungfu and wanted to learn all my life but did'nt get a great teacher, please upload such videos more and more , I think I can learn a lot this way,
I have learned by necessity very quickly reaching the goal wondering when to spend more time on the process the path itself. I am inspired by the lesson with in your lessons. Thank you
Dan is the type of guy who doesnt walk with bodyguards, because they suck compared to him. Man with a heart of gold, money worth of platinum and hands of steel.
Excellent! Would you make a motivated video to go past beginners pains by teaching the difference, so we can stop before injuries. I'm retired handicap. It seems I can't practice every day because I'm lazy? Always to busy? A video in your Bentley getting told off concerning PRACTICE would work every time it happens. Thanks a Million
I imagine I'm holding my phone to my cheek at the end of my punches to remember to bring my shoulder up to protect me, do you think that would be an effective way to visualize protecting the chin with one's shoulder?
Great video. I can see how the body mechanics really help with the power of the punch. I have studied the basics of JKD but I'm no expert. I learned basic footwork and punching as well as self defense techniques from a video called Bruce Lee fighting method with Ted Wong and Richard Bustillo. This is a random question but Dan if you had the privilege to speak to Bruce Lee, what is the one question that you would ask him? Also if Bruce Lee was here today, what do you think his opinion on MMA would be?
Binge-watching JKD videos is not what I had planned for this beautiful spring day, but I am very glad I am. Thank you! Im adding F.U. Money to the reading list.
Fill the gaps with strikes. Hard to remember in action,so train, drill, cross train and then train. MMA does this really well because points. Some karate systems do it well and Muay Thai is excellent at it. Hit him in the transitions. Strike on the break. Ooh, I may have forgotten to mention, TRAIN
many thanks genius dan lok! the truth that very good technique, very effective. Now, with the hip movement, I think it should be like a rotating ege for any blow, do not you think? I wanted to tell him that the fist bump that my teacher taught me once is the full revolving blow. that comes to be like a bullet hit. when throwing the blow, it turns completely and when it hits it hurts a little differently than a blow. very good video dan lok. Good Life. regards
Hi dan, i have practiced jkd many years ago, but now i want to restart, and your videos help me very much and for that i thank you veru much!! Anyway i want to ask you a question. How can i do a spinning hook kick like bruce in his films? I know it's not usefull for the street, but i like so much... please explain this in an video! Im sorry but im italian and i don't speak very well the english... but i hope that you understand me! Anyway thank you again! You are a great sifu of jkd!!!!! Good evening!! :)
This may be a technique beyond Dan's skill range, from what I've seen of his kicks I don't think he has that one down yet (could be wrong). I was a TKD national champ in my teens and this as well as the spinning back kick with straight leg all the way round is a basic kick in TKD that Bruce would have learned from someone like Jhoon Rhee or Chuck Norris (all Wing Chun kicks are below the belt). The spinning back hook kick (like 'dragon whips his tail' in the film) is a very standard type of kick common to some forms of Kung Fu, Karate, Tae Kwon Do, modern kick-boxing etc. It is far more powerful with the back of the heel than slapping with the underside of the foot. You basically chamber the leg like you would for a Tae Kwon Do head high spinning back thrust kick but keep spinning around rather than thrust forward and snap the leg out and then back in again. It is good to use a target. I fill plastic bottles with water or suspend a tennis ball or something similar like a small target bag. You need to be able to kick at least as high or higher than your head so need to be flexible enough and try the target at about shoulder height or a little lower first until you get the feel of it. You need to slightly drop the upper body back and down a bit and keep looking back over your shoulder to spot the target as you spin. When you get really good at it you don't need to spot the target as much because your foot will automatically hit the target from where you've focused before spinning. Just remember to keep the leg chambered and bent in while spinning then let it lengthen just as you have gone through 180 degrees of the 360 degree spin, then fold it back agin (bending your kicking legs knee to comp[ete the spin and then plant your kicking foot where it started from). Do it at a medium pace then speed it up as you become more confident. When you speed up you might find yourself spinning too far, it is good to have a small target dangling to get used to hitting something. If you do this at a large bag you will just stop and not be able to spin all the way round without withdrawing the leg or even lose balance completely and almost fall over. Get used to striking that too because it is useful to know how to quickly recover from varying resistance. That kick is designed to snap round and take out your opponents head and relies on speed and surprise. It can be a very effective knock out blow when mastered. In JKD a more favoured variant of this is essentially the same head high kick incorporating the forward burst but executed with the front leg in the same motion without spinning back (much quicker), in this case you just have to just lean back with a bit of skip-like footwork, it will work with the so-called 'pendulum' step as well.
I’ve been training in Karate for 6-7 years now I can explain it to you since Bruce took some of his hich kicks from Karate. You can do it from either a normal Boxing stance, southpaw or orthodox (depending on your lead leg). I’ll explain doing it from the side stance (lead leg stance) since it is commonly used in TKD and Karate and also because Bruce Lee used it in his movies. I have a ball with a string attached to it which I use to practice with. Start with the kick low first and don’t worry too much about height. The height will come once you master the kick. Work on technique before going for speed and power. Hitting with the heal provides more power than slapping with the foot. Pivoting is something that you will come with the kick. Pivoting on the ball of your foot is what you should be doing. I don’t recommend practicing on a sticky surface as it will be complex and bad when you practice. This isn’t an easy kick like a Mei Giri (front kick) you must practice this every day and you’ll get the hang of it. Forgot to say while you spin remember to spot your target. Also lean a bit so you can reach head heighjt.
Dan, maybe I don't remember correctly, but didn't Ted Wong teach it as a horizontal fist with the pinky knuckle slightly tilted more upwards, flaring out the elbow, giving you more protection on the rear punch?

Awesome introduction!
Valeu Dan!
Excellent 👍👍👍 Sir!
Excellent!
Would you make a motivated video to go past beginners pains by teaching the difference, so we can stop before injuries.
I'm retired handicap. It seems I can't practice every day because I'm lazy? Always to busy?
A video in your Bentley getting told off concerning PRACTICE would work every time it happens.
Thanks a Million
Absolutely fantastic. This is dan 👍
Good to see you Hasan!
I imagine I'm holding my phone to my cheek at the end of my punches to remember to bring my shoulder up to protect me, do you think that would be an effective way to visualize protecting the chin with one's shoulder?
very good idea!
Similar to what my old boxing trainer taught. Step up slide rear foot technique
Thanks
It's so good thanks men I leave a sub
Best channel on JKD and WING CHUN!
Love your videos Dan. Much better minus your sifu. You are a better speaker and instructor in front of the camera. Thanks
cool lightning bolt @5:50!
Thank you, this is awesome.
Love your video's love it
You are too AWESOME.
More of these
This guy should be making movies

Very very Cool 👍
Great
You should do a video showing how to block fast punches multiple times
So by rectrating the auxiliary hand, you mimic a spring to increase power?
Binge-watching JKD videos is not what I had planned for this beautiful spring day, but I am very glad I am. Thank you! Im adding F.U. Money to the reading list.

I'll try to use this in kumite
0:35 you took that words from Bruce Lee bro 😂
Nice 🙏❤️🐉
That's what I noticed !
I missed Bruce's voice and style of speaking ☹️
I like how the footwork resembles a superman punch without that leap of faith into the air.
sir i am from india i love JKD but here there is no school but i am learning from you thank you sir
i like it, and subscribed too.
Hey Dan, can you upload a video which explain + show the ung moon form of jkd? Thanks!
Hi sir, can you please share (Bruce Lee's) JKD SCISSOR KICK.
Hi,I wanna ask what exercises shall I adopt for everyday routien to develop insane fighting stamina and attack power as well as speed?

@@linkgame256 it was actually taekwondo he took his kicks from

awesome
Thank you
I love elbow srige
I’m getting better at the skip side kicks still needs practice
Mr lok , who taught you JKD?
Question: Did Bruce Lee believe in an uppercut punch? Or is it there too much motion involved in the technique?
I wish i can train with u..spiritually u having good vision..🙏🙏🙏
