Tao of Jeet Kune Do Hardcover – Illustrated, 1 Nov. 2011

I was always curious on this book so gave it a go. Very nice! The quality is spot on but by only moan would be that the price could come down a few quid.

I have been an avid fan of Bruce Lee since a very young age. From watching all his movies to reading dozens of books either written by or about him. I heard very good things about this book and was keen to learn more about Jeet Kune Do. Bruce Lee to me is more than just a massive movie star as their is so much more to him than kick ass moves. Such an intelligent and inspiring human being that everyone could learn a thing or two from. This book gives you a good account of what's involved in jeet kune do, now I'm not saying that if you read this book you'll be able to crane kick light bulbs on the ceiling into oblivion but certainly for the martial arts enthusiasts it can be applied and maybe help your own techniques improve or for a novice to start off your basis from the legend.

First off I thought this would be a more... A done piece of work, but it looks more like notes and sketches for a future book on Jeet Kune Do. That disappointed me a bit at first, but now I love it. This is what Bruce Lee thought about fighting, how far he had gotten and how he thought it should be applied in future fighting. If you're a fan of MMA this will tickle that fancy as well.I use this as inspiration for Kung Fu and MMA training (and a little grappling), so I experience the martial arts angle, but I am very new to it and I do not do Jeet Kune Do, so I am not reviewing this as a JKD practitioner in interest of full disclosure.

It's not a teaching book it's a coaching book. Bruce is very clear, he can't teach you his art. He can only share the concept in his own words and help you find the answers yourself. He shares the insights from his journey in case they're useful on yours. The rest is up to you.This open style is very refreshing for me and exactly what I wanted. To be empowered instead of constrained. Haven't finished the book. Loving what I've covered so far.

It's not like a book which you can just read, it's more like bruce's notebook with his very own fighting style but it's still very nice, interesting illustration and explanation made by Bruce makes it worth checking out.I gave only 4 starts because book was damaged when arrived, some people treat books with respect and when I see it in bad condition its getting on my nerves.Secure your parcels better amazon.

Although I don't understand most of it, Bruce Lee's Tao of Jeet Kune Do is like a reflection of the moon, illuminating the depths and creating waves in the oceans of my mind.The winds go by and melt all the icy restrictions that stop the flow of my inner river.A lot of it is unclear full of contradictions and difficult to decipher sometimes, but so is Shakespeare's work.A great book for anyone really.

excellent quality and a great service buy the buyer quick response to emails and very polite and helpful thank you well worth it

As a martial arts practitioner and fan it is great to have some of Bruce Lee's thoughts presented in this way.Forever a topic of debate but great to have as a go to for when reflecting on ones own training.

This is a great book.

Great for self improvement!
