True. Thing I noticed about Bruce's best friends they were humble types and calm. Like tacky kimura and inosanto. Maybe to bring calmness and balance him out as he was so energetic and maybe not calm at times with his temper
May I just say that Mr. Inosanto is possibly the most under-appreciated Martial Artist in the world today? The guy is truly a walking encyclopedia of Asian martial arts. He has studied virtually every major style present today, and mastered most of them. His movement is fluid and flawless and his knowledge is second to none. Anyone who gets to learn from him must feel very lucky. We are all lucky to have these videos to learn from.
no, is the other way around. dan inosanto saw something different in brace lee. and since Dan was a student of Bruce and a Filipino weapon practitioner, Bruce thought he was useful to his film. after all, Dan inosanto is one responsible for Bruce's thoughts and ideas. see how that works.
Many MMA trainers and traditional instructors alike now use the training equipment that were originally used by Bruce Lee and Dan Inosanto. Alot of the equipment has been upgraded since then to the versions that are in use today.
Amazing insight on how they trained and how long. 2 to 3 hours per sessions. Main attributes were important and 60% physical vs 40% technical. Meaning, if you don't train the physical body to a high enough athletic ability, the technique will not work. No substitution on how many hours you need to progress when it comes to both the technique and making a body athletic enough to use the technique. Good to remember.
Because of Guru Dan I trained with him at a seminar William Cheung school in Melbourne in the Eighties I met my own Guru Roland dantes and his top students thanks dan
Starting to put it all together now. Dan is right, in my research I read some his Seattle 'buddies' opened a different group and tried poaching some of his students. He confronted them and that was it. In Oakland his main contact there was distraught over his wife dying and didn't fare so well himself. I could TOTALLY see his reluctance and THIS man's (Dan) loyalty won Bruce over. I think Bruce REALLY valued the loyalty of his male friends / students and had HUGE issues w abandonment linking back to Amy Sanbo. The more and more I research and study sources and link it all together the more I appreciate Bruce as a young man finding his way.
this man would kick any of our ass. He never took an arrow to the knee. Much respect. "each guy thinks that he has the things that pleases him, thats martial arts" - Dan Inosanto
Nice interview (is it from one of the Hong Kong Legends dvds?). Mr. Inosanto is one of my favorite martial arts teachers, a great example for others to follow: incredibly knowledgeable but always a student himself, still learning & training in his 70s. Thanks for your fine example, Mr. Inosanto.
[8:32] "He didn't really rehearsed in his demonstration. And I always felt uncomfortable with that, because in kempo, we always rehearsed. You know, we had routines down and all that. He said we'll just take it from there, you just punch and kick."
Ed Parker asked Bruce Lee if he could improve his Hawaiian Chinese Kenpo shortly after he met Bruce. Now notice that Ed Parker was the authority in the martial art arena at the time. Ed was thrilled after Bruce was able to help him improve some of his vital moves. (example: After you strike don't just bring your hand back, grape your opponent's neck with the same hand and pull him toward your elbow in a head-on collision strike.) Ed Parker was also Elvis Presley's bodyguard and sifu.
Interesting to hear Sifu Dan mentioning learning the Southern Mantis Form (Tong Long) from Sifu Bruce Lee. I have always believe there are similarities in the JKD stance to the Tong Long stance. I studied the Southern Mantis art and found myself adapting to the JKD stance easily. There are some differences, the on guard position is slightly different. But the art is based on centre line, very similar to Wing Chun/JKD
bruce was a master. master of the martial arts. Not necessarily of any particular syle. He was a great thinker and invented much on his own. He took the essence of things and progressed it. I know people with master mechanic titles. I know those that have never taken a class that are better mechanics..
Danny and Bruce are not martial artists. They are Practitioners. What martial arts do him or Bruce know? Kuntao is the mother of karate and the only martial arts in the world that descends directly from the Shaolin temple in Henan province. Bruce Lee was a phony martial artists. Anyone who believes he could fight like he did in the movies is plain stupid. If he was all that then how could he complain about what he knew if it was not sufficient? Besides that, there are no southern mantis forms. mantis is northern. The closest you can get to a southern mantis form is in My Jong Longhorn. These people are phony martial artists and could not stand up against true martial artists 5 minutes. Bruce was purely demonstrational. And how can people say JKD is martial arts when Bruce said it was not? He said it had no forms which means you cannot learn it due to the fact (another thing Bruce was ignorant of) it is the forms in southern kuntao that builds chi and makes it martial arts. He said it was just a name. Why did he say that? Becuz JKD is the art of fighting without fighting which means if someone challenges you, then get them to get into a boat to go somewhere you do not intend to go with them. I figured it out Bruce was a child star in Hong Kong. h came to Hollywood and the bug started all over against, and ended his life. All these people are self proclaimed masters of nothing. WHo made Beruce a master? Whta system did he master?
Feeling y sensing Bruce’s mind intentions y philosophy y his owned ‘culture’ I think for ‘ka’ Dan was a challenging y exciting experience for him imo y I kinda felt his ways of connecting with my cuz Bruce(:
@leejou2 Because what Sijo Bruce would have wanted above all else would be for his students and the students of his students to run around criticising each other about how wrong they are, regardless of how much time they have spent training with him/people he certified to teach his art. Yes, what else could a teacher ask for but that all of his followers spend as much time as possible at each others throats, instead of perfecting themselves!
A good teacher in the Martial arts would know how to teach a student . Most students when starting to learn some kind of Martial Arts don't know anything . That where you would teach and guide them . Always keep an open mind . 😁😁😁
Oh yeah no doubt, it doesn't need too be a bad thing exactly, just one should remember it. You read the book Bruce Lee: Fighting Words? Same guy who wrote Fighting Sprit.
Well, he did really bring a lot to the USA, and all the stuff he did for physical fitness and the martial arts have yielded a ton of fruit. I might have a huge ego too if it was the 60's/70's and I was the first to introduce the things he did to a country that was fairly ignorant of what he knew. I'm saying that any delusions of grandeur you may have read about aren't unfounded. He was the real deal at the time. I wouldn't have my teacher without Bruce's inspiration.
How could this be, bruce spent only 40% of the training time developing the technique. If you look at his reps, he did up to 2000 punches and kicks a day.
Ppl have given Bruce the Master title did he eva say he was a Master? Wasn't anything given 2 em so he earn his respect by playing tha game nstead of trying 2 beat tha game!
That's the way you supposed to teach he is the best teacher ever and I think Mr inosanto you was jealous of master Lee you did not had to say it but after this interview you had another and you decided to talk bad about master Lee...
was this about his comment on Bruce being impatient? What? Does Bruce walk on water too? Nobody is above reproach and nobody is above criticism. Everyone, no matter who it is....has something about themselves that can be criticized. Bruce Lee wasn't perfect, he's human like the rest of us. I don't think Inosanto was "jealous" of Bruce, he was just merely pointing out a flaw that Bruce had as a teacher. let's put it this way, would you rather train from a teacher who is too impatient with you to grow and he just moves on to the next subject? or would you rather have a teacher who Is willing to work with you at your own pace? Bruce Lee was one of the baddest motherfuckers alive......but I'd rather have Dan Inosanto teach me than Bruce. Dan is not the only person who said that about Bruce, there have been others that Bruce taught who've more or less said the same thing. That Bruce's temperment wasn't conducive to being a good teacher.

I appreciate that he gave Bruce's short commings - he was sometimes impatient. It's good to know he was human. That makes him even cooler.
Bruce Lee left us lnosanto, iconic, in keeping his story alive
I'm from Algeria, perhaps luck to train under one of the greatest artists, this is Dan
Dan Inosanto a real legend.Bruce Lee wanted him in his movie...He saw something different at Dan Inosanto...

Guru Dan is a respectable teacher he do knows what he said and talk...and explain things very clearly its so impressive.

If i meet him in real life i would be sooo happy! He is like a talking book full with history and knowledge that i want!
Thank you for Uploading.
Dan’s a legend and incredibly humble, but I wonder if he gets sick of interviewers only asking him about Bruce. He’s a legend in his own right.

Dan Inosanto is a true Martial Artist Especially in the Late Bruce Lee Philosophy Jeet Kune Do .

Great upload!
I think the word he was looking for was “evolving.”
Often I wish Bruce Lee would still be alive. The world could have looked so differently if he was still here.
Not bruce's blood but definitely his brother.
@leejou2 Because what Sijo Bruce would have wanted above all else would be for his students and the students of his students to run around criticising each other about how wrong they are, regardless of how much time they have spent training with him/people he certified to teach his art.

In short Bruce Lee was a scientist 😊
I also believe bruce lee started the trend of body building supplement as part of the training
lets talk about this give me a write-bye
i know him
💪🏿☝🏿👍🏿👑🤜🏿🤛🏿👊🏿✊🏿
A good teacher in the Martial arts would know how to teach a student . Most students when starting to learn some kind of Martial Arts don't know anything . That where you would teach and guide them . Always keep an open mind . 😁😁😁
Imagine seeing Guro Dan and Bruce in way of the dragon instead of chuck? Although the Bruce and Norris fight is awesome.
Oh yeah no doubt, it doesn't need too be a bad thing exactly, just one should remember it. You read the book Bruce Lee: Fighting Words? Same guy who wrote Fighting Sprit.

Before he died , Bruce was spending 14 ! he a day on training.
