What would you give to learn from some of the top Jeet Kune Do Experts in the world, all during one weekend? Finding any JKD Instructor is tough enough in most parts of the world, as there is a limited amount of them. For most, finding any JKD Instructor is the first problem! Next, finding those who are qualified is the second problem. However, finding several qualified JKD Instructors in one spot is nearly impossible.
As a result, people search for loose video clips on Youtube, and find unqualified or inexperienced instructors that leave them dazed and confused as to the secrets this art has to share.
As a certified JKD Instructor for almost two decades, it has been a dream of mine to bring a variety of JKD instructors together in one place. This is a place where politics are put aside, and the focus is on YOUR learning and growing.
Very rarely has there been one weekend, where you can learn from several JKD Instructors, and increase your knowledge and skills through different perspectives and experiences. This weekend is called the “JKD Summit Seminars”.
There is no need to travel literally to different coasts, and a variety of cities to gain the knowledge that these experts have synthesized over dozens of years. No need to do endless searches on the net for splices of video, random articles and partial curriculums.
During one weekend, you’ll have the chance to learn through five different JKD Experts, and come away a changed person. How? You will get to experience what few have ever gotten the chance to experience. We all know that learning through one expert can give you revelations that are game changers in your life, training and development. Many times these experiences catapult our training into the next stratosphere! A seminar like this can literally add years onto your experience, and puts an item on your credentials which few others can duplicate.
You can gain this once in a lifetime experience through the in person seminar or the abridged version over the internet. First, let me explain the JKD Master’s line up and what they will be covering in person:
SATURDAY, MARCH 31ST

Tim Tackett saw Bruce Lee perform at Ed Parker’s Long Beach Tournament in 1967, and it changed his life forever.

He received the rank of Senior Instructor from Guro Inosanto, and later created the well known Wednesday night classes which still run today. Since then, Tim Tackett has created several JKD videos and books, which give incredible insight into JKD. He has also been quoted by Guru Inosanto as “The most knowledgeable JKD Instructor”.
