Anyone with a grounding in Jeet Kune Do (Bruce Lee's concept of total fighting) will know the name of Larry Hartsell. He was one of Sifu Bruce Lee's first students in America and he developed the grappling part of JKD to become the foremost exponent in this style.
This book, however, is an overview of the core concepts of JKD ranging from trapping and energy drills to the basic forms on the Wing Tsun dummy. There are also some strategies for dealing with common scenarios should you be accosted in the street.
Practitioners state that JKD is the art of street fighting and that it's focus is on developing a knowledge of a broad range of techniques that will aid you in dealing with a variety of deeply unpleasant situations you may face. Sifu Larry Hartsell stresses the importance of learning these techniques but also in having them tested in realistic training sessions.
