- in 1969, Bruce Lee closed the LA Chinatown school before moving back to Hong Kong to focus on his film career. Since then, it's remained largely vacant, besides serving as a dental office.
ECJKD Opens Bruce Lee's LA Chinatown Studio After 50 Years! Join us once a month to train in this iconic location, at no charge!

Hi Eric! I'm a boxing/kickboxing ring announcer and it is great to see you passing on the knowledge and to help keep both Bruce Lee and Jerry Poteet's legacy alive! Hope to have the chance to shake hands with you one day or even announce you in some fashion at a future event. Kindest... Peter Christensen 🤙
It will be a pleasure to meet
I'm Glad The Jeet Kune Do Chinatown School Is Being Used Again. It Would Be A Blast To Go Out To California And Train At The Chinatown School.
OMG !! THAT IS SO AWSOME !!!!! For a minute I thought I saw Sifu Poteet there training. Thanks Eric for keeping Bruce Lee JKD alive. I wish I could be there.
Proud of u Sifu Eric Carr.
I can only imagine that in BL final moments of life review. He realized how much friends and compatriot’s learned from one another.
Like Rosebud in Citizen Cane and many of us recollect those early years. When everything was a new discovery. A future so distant and yet within our reach.
I'm very pleased to see how his work is still alive and kicking today. I really wish I could have met Bruce Lee. He died 14 years before I was born though. I enjoyed this video. I'm addicted to His work even 50 years after his death. Can't get enough. Thank yall for sharing 💓
As I said to you on instagram, it's amazing to see this flame burning!
Thank you sir for keeping a historical place alive! 🙏❤️
this is awesome
Bruce Lee looking down with a big smile.
Probably not,
Bruce Lee doesn't believe in styles.
Nice to see JKD back in the China Town School. The Birthplace of JKD was in Oakland, Ca, at James Lee's House and Kwoon. But I understand, it was the location of Bruce's school in LA. Kudos.
Well Eric is not wrong. There also was a Seattle school. So all the schools are the birth places really.
I would say this LA China town one is the most significant one as it was Bruce's last school. Bruce and Dan Inosanto kept it open until 1970.
And since JKD was constantly evolving with Bruce (as each persons personal journey is), you can see it as the most evolved location.
I'm glad someone re opened as it should be
This is amazing! Bruce Lee's spirit lives on!
Thank you!
@@EricCarrJeetKunedo have you reached out to Sifu Andy Kimura of Jun Fan Gung Fu Institute of Seattle Washington?
Wow too cool. Great idea.
I'm hoping this place has been successful.
awesome👍
I'd love to just visit this place.

All these guys are experts by now! Wish you were in My town!
If you ever find yourself in Los Angeles, look us up and come through.
Wow that great 👍
Awesome!
Very inspiring and good representation of the Bruce Lee studio. So historic and great practices taught. Keep up the good work Eric. You rock!
Birthplace of JKD in LA Chinatown? Wrong. Birthplace of JKD is well documented in all history in Oakland with James Lee. I dont know why you LA guys always think it all started in 1967.
historical
Oh god that is fantastic keep this place forever please✌🐲🐉
Thank you! The plan is to build this up as we go and keep this going strong
@@EricCarrJeetKunedo I have always been a fan of bruce and his method since I was 14, at 35 I am studying JKD through bruce books and videos from many channels since there is no academy here in Uruguay ..Naturally I train alone ... and it was quite limited at the beginning ... until I developed up a kind of "chi sao" with a tennis ball ... to simulate a little haha although I have noticed improvements ... I help myself with a mirror for the techniques..
greetings and congratulations
Very cool
Wonderful
AWSOME I can believe the owner of the building finally agreed, or did you have to buy the building?
The owner is the man who actually rented it to bruce Lee, and he was against opening it up for several years - tried way back in 2011. At some point, he gave control to his younger son, who was pretty relaxed about everything.
Oh wow, this is Amazing...I am hoping this will last a very long long time...!!!
I done jeet kune do great style
Can someone tell me who is the gentleman far right of the photo, please? Is that Bob Bremer?
In the second photo, with Jerry Poteet on the left, that Pete Jacobs far right. There is another photo identical to this with Pete and Bob on the far Right, Jerry far left, and Dan Lee.
What are your weekend school hours?
10am to 12noon - we are doing a free event once a month, to start, in Bruce's studio. See my website for the usual information ericcarrjkd.com
Who else looked up the address on google maps? 😆
Should a church of Bruce Lee be built there since its a holy place ?
A historical site, definitely - it's an important piece of chinatown's history. Church, or holy? I'm against worshipping anything or anyone. He's one of the greats and should be studied. But worship is a slippery slope, especially of oneself. But I get what you mean, and I agree. The way things are going in Chinatown, it will, unfortunately, be purchased and demolished, and condos will be built in its place
Bruce is rolling in his grave
How so? How well did you know Bruce?
I think he means in a good way. Although the expression usually means the negative.
this is not jkd
Care to explain how it's not?
@@EricCarrJeetKunedo of course ,i meet ted wong here in italy ,it s all different,jkd is like fencing without sword,what you teach is the earlie time where mr lee ,teached in first period in united states ,it was a modificated wing chun ,there is trapping ,in jkd the last jkd ,bruce llee teached to ted wong ,trapping was take away because not suited in street fight ,if you have ever seen a two people fighting ,traping is useless ,ted wong use to say jkd is easy not simple ....footwork is the spine and the strait lead punch,i think this i m sorry but that's all
@@walterbombardi7748 So you met Ted once and know all there is? I worked out with Ted twice in 93, and I worked out with his son once in 2010. I trained with Jerry Poteet for 12 years, who was one of the first to walk into Bruces LA class, which is the era Ted trained with Bruce. Bruce taught Jerry much of the trapping, privately at the house. So it is all in the same time frame. But are you saying that anything Bruce taught before Ted's time isnt JKD? So you understand, what I teach is not passive, uses the 5 Ways of Attack, is influenced heavily by boxing, WC - with Bruces modifications, Fencing, and wrestling, and interception. Bruce never meant for the art to become a static thing, as in only do it the way Bruce did it at a given moment. It was meant to evolve. Thats what the arrows on the symbol mean. What you did was write off something you dont understand and didnt take the time to know.
@@EricCarrJeetKunedo i keep my opinion form me it s not jkd ,so you can do anithing you want i don t care good bye
@@walterbombardi7748 What you made was a statement. That's not an opinion. So I explained, using facts, why you are incorrect. And rather than answer the questions I asked, you bail?
Good to see it open too bad its not runned by anyone aquatinted to bruce Just a white boy who leased the place
Here, let me fix the grammar in your insult, for you. "Good to see it open. Too bad it's not run by someone..."
You should also know that Bruce was quarter Caucasian. Or, "white boy," as you put it. Bruce thought of the human race as one family and I doubt he would be amused by your comment.
Now let me show you the definition of acquaintance. "A person one knows slightly, but who is not a close friend." Sounds like someone that would be neither qualified nor interested in teaching Bruce's work, in his space.
My connection to Bruce is, I trained directly in the lineage, under one of his original students. And I have worked out with others in the original group. And I happen to know the family.
Good luck making friends in real life.
Come spar with these white boys....
@@EricCarrJeetKunedo lol looks like a hit a nerve lol bruce would be so disappointed seeing his studio runned by an idiot , i thought jeet kune do teaches you to be like water and emotional content and not be angry , hmmmm lets see all i read is , my grammar bla bla and dont know bruce but i know the family LOL ok buddy stop pretending to the grand master like i said before ur just a white boy leasing the place u would probably get asswhooped by a youtuber or a homeless street thug LOL😂😂😂 be like water bitch
The place looks like a coffee shop lol not even close to how bruce had it running 50 years ago today is a joke
@@danamiller4769 come and spar these nuts
Not one of these players produce half a attribute of Bruce lee most of the techniques weren’t executed properly
Your comment tells me a lot about you. Anyone with real skills would not have been so quick to point out what he finds incorrect or not done well. A real practitioner and a real fighter knows that they were once a student, and not everyone is perfect. Nor is everyone here to please him or her. BruceLeee was an anomaly. I doubt you come close to him, either. So, your keyboard warrior comet means nothing. Show us what you got? Or point out what you think is wrong, and I will show you how it's done right.
@@EricCarrJeetKunedo sir if your not performing chi sao properly how do you expect to develop the trapping sensitivity in combat? with all due respect your training reflects your ego, if you are not open to criticism you shouldn't put up such videos.
keyboard warrior me nah sir far from it, but i can tell your skill is nowhere resembles what jeet kune do was. Quit your enter the dragon ego it will get you killed.
@GilesHartop ego? Now you are gaslighting me. You didn't come in with criticism, you came out in public with negativity. Look at my other videos of qi sao. Watch me. I've rolled with Ip Man beginners and Hong Kong all of famers. We can all get better, but I know exactly what i'm doing. You took a shot at beginners over the internet, what does that say about you?
Dude, why not make your own video then? Show the world how it's done.
