Boy what a realistic, knowledgeable and humble man. I know exactly what he felt when he met Jesse Glover. I had trained with several great Martial Artists including Sifu Dan Insosanto, Karate and wrestling champions and starting to get a little cocky, then I met Sensei Benny Urquidez and was dumbfounded and could tell the skill difference was noticable.

I have been so fortunate in my martial arts journey and my career as a surgeon, to have trained with and seen some of the best. It opens doors of possibility in your mind whose existence you never imagined. Thank you for doing this interview! Best!

Hi would u mind sharing your thoughts and experiences in Leo Fong? I have been searching for his Art Wei Kune Do but not to put him down or anything but I wasn't and haven't been able to find much practical use of it. To me it seemed like boxing with rhythms and patterns just like karate and kunf-fu has rhythms and patterns... repetition. Not sure of its effectiveness but just curious to know your experience...I will probably be wrong in my assessment but just want to hear from somebody with experience..

I only attended a seminar with Sifu Fong about5 years ago at Sifu Lamar Davis,s school in Oneonta Alabama. What I remember is throwing a lot of jabs, crosses , uppercut, hooks , a Hammer fist and an axe hand , in some combinations that Sifu taught while we worked on moving around with footwork. I found him very knowledgeable and a real nice man. I had him as a friend on Facebook, I had also ordered a DVD tape of his on knockout combinations that he had signed. I felt honored to have trained under him. He was close friends with Bruce Lee and had helped get Bruce interested in boxing techniques years ago. I was about 65 yrs old at the time.. I believe he still has a website. He's an expert in several styles. You can get him on Facebook, and he will usually answere any questions on Facebook messenger. He knows Jeet Kune Do very well. There are some very good videos on him on you tube. I still try to stay in practice with my strikes and foot work I learned from him. We mostly hit the pads during the seminar.

Hello Adam. My name is Roy Barnett, and I live in the Metro Detroit Michigan area of the U.S. I have been following your channel for a few years, and I love your insights into structure, philosophy, history, meditation, adaptability and more. But what I appreciate even more about you, as this is probably my third time watching this, is your respect for your teachers, and their wishes. Following your example, I won't say who this person is I am talking about, but I had taken a picture with him at one of the 5 and half seminars I have attended with him, over a span from '96 to 2017, and it was posted on my website. The more I looked at the picture there, the more uneasy I became, because for those people who would recognize him, it might seem I was a serious student training under him, and I couldn't promote myself under such a suggestion. I took the picture down, and when I saw him again, I told him my reason for taking the picture down, because I felt I was not really a student, just someone who had attended a few seminars that give you an overview. He laughed and said, "You have more of a right to say you have learned from me, than many who have just shook my hand in a picture, and claimed I "certified" them.." I thanked him for his kind words.....but the picture is still not there. I thank you for in a way, reinforcing my decision. I started training when I was 12, and just celebrated my 69th birthday this past August. I still continue to learn, analyze, pressure test, observe and assess. Thank you for helping me continue my research and journey. I hope to have an opportunity to meet and learn from you in the future. pptlifestyle.wordpress.com

Thanks so much for sharing about your first encounter with Jesse Glover Adam. That matches up perfectly with stories I heard about him from my NCGF teacher. Great to get a different personal angle on what it was like. I think the "Bruce was just an actor" comments are mostly trolls trying to get the fanboys to go nuts. I mean, do they even give a moment's thought to the question, "What would inspire all of these great martial artists to study with and comment so favorably about Bruce? Why would these guys study so intensively with someone who was just an actor?" He clearly had something special. Whether he was "the best" is irrelevant and unknowable.

He used to live here in Ashland and I trained with him for a couple of years, eventually bringing in a couple of my students to train as well. Then he moved back to Seattle so I've just been working with one other student in particular on our own. We meet 3 times a week most weeks...mostly working on the striking part...the sticking part we touch base with but don't know enough to really train hard at. But even the small portion or NCGF that we do work has been extremely beneficial to my health, fitness and old guy version of self-defense. ;~) It was so great to meet Todd and work with him. I'd heard so many good things about Jesse...it seemed like a miracle that a guy who actually trained with him would just walk up to me in the park and introduce himself. He had a big effect on me and my students as well.

I should've responded better to this jerk on another thread ( acts like a lawyer ) asking CAN BRUCE LEE beat Mike Tyson . I knew his end game should've said YES it's possible if Bruce knew exactly what he's doing going against a skilled boxer let alone huge muscular. I let him win the argument, I should've grilled him MORE for NOT answering my questions. And accuse me for being too sensitive and testy. Well, he wouldn't answer my questions like if he's trying to draw the conclusion Bruce is not a fighter, tmif that's the case when did he fought Bruce Lee, time and place. He refused to answer. He was arrogant prick.

Among my peers I was ' high level'. Then I met a medium level student of Master Henry Cook in Louisville KY....the student was high level and I never met Master Cook but I could only imagine his level!! Lastly I had the chance to train several times with Iowa wrestling guy and bodyweight exercise master Matt Furey....high level guy even though I was a very decent grappler....point is there is always someone better and if you humble yourself and train hard...empty your cup....one can learn a ton .. ..,.

I studied with 3 out of the 5 student's I could train with, James DeMile, Dan Inosanto, Richard Bustillo, I did Jun Fan Jeet Kune Do & than I did Wing Chun Do. Also Kareem Abdul Jabbar Was great he told awesome Stories about Bruce Lee & Linda! Kareem said he still does light training! That was back in 2017 So Yeah! Also Sigung Taky Kimura sent me a private video and gave me great advice. I was blessed to have met & trained with some great teacher/martial arts masters! I love Those guys. Before I studied with Bruce Lee's Students I was doing Japanese Samurai Arts/Iaijutsu, Kobudo, Kickboxing & Karate From Sensei Geelani. Who is a great instructor when it comes to the real Japanese Arts! With some JKD Basics!

Mike Stone,Chuck Norris, and Joe Lewis.Stone was a sadist as a fighter, Lewis was a juggernaut with a ego to match and Norris was the ultimate technician.For them to be impressed enough to seek lee out and stick with him for more than one day, he had to be above them in every way.

Great interview Adam. All that you said about Jesse was true. It seems like you met Jesse during his Bootcamp workouts. I was like you, my arms were too numb after the exercises to stick. Those In and Outs were brutal. You forget to mention at the end of class of 'Chasing the Glove.' I met you briefly at the gas station by Lakeview Cemetery as we were both going to Jesse's funeral. Patrick Noonan, I also lived at Ed Hart's. What do you miss more? Ed's all night typing or endless smoking. I'll never forget that my pillow on his couch was a Big Punch punching glove.

The late great Karate Champion Jim Kelly said that Bruce Lee was Untouchable ! He knew people that Lee sparred with, and wouldn't say their names out of respect. You can find plenty of interviews of him on KZfaq commenting Lee's abilities.

Now you know that Chinese Kung Fu actually works. It really depends on how much dedication and commitment a martial artist is willing to learn. Bruce spent hours practicing one Wing Chun technique. Unfortunately, time has caught up and not many Chinese are that dedicated and only fixated in making money and family. Back then, students would be heavily tested and spent 10-15 hours a day practicing. Kung Fu was their life. Ask yourself this question, “How did these martial arts masters fight without being winded or tired? How could they fight 100 men in a live combat or war without getting tired? You see UFC fights and they’re huffing and puffing so hard but how did these martial arts masters like Tsun Tzu or Musashi Myamoto able to take out hundreds of opponent and still survive using classical martial arts? “🤔 Find your wisdom and find the real masters. There are only a few handful. Find the lineage. Then, you will find how effective Kung Fu is. The legacy is dying and unfortunately, a lot of the Kung Fu masters are gone and only mainly foreigners are dedicated and taking over. It’s all about dedication, respect and to be humble. That’s Martial Arts. Stay away from the Communism propaganda that controlled martial arts in its country. There are only a few like 5% or maybe less in that country that have real masters. You can find them over here in America that migrated from Hong Kong.

@@jashardwallington I agree that too many of these fake martial arts self proclaimed masters that never been either in a sparring match, street fight or heck a boxing match and they make really good authentic fighters look like trash. It’s just sad man really sad. Then the really dedicated martial artist want to learn and put seriousness into the art have a hard time finding really good masters out there.

I have a weird perspective, having been in a violent relationship and then being attacked in an attempted rape - it's awful to say, but it comes in handy being able to take a hit (i.e. from being hit in my relationship) but also fights are messy, you run out of oxygen fast and you end up on the ground quickly. Majority of people don't know how to fight, so it gets really ugly and messy! Be able to take a hit, have good cardio, and know how to wrestle someone on the ground (pressure points can be great. You can cause a lot of pain with little effort - be careful, you can really hurt someone!) Sorry for going on so much but thought I'd give the perspective of a female who has been attack by a stranger and how it can go. Good Lord, I can go on and on!🤐 Oh, and thankfully, I'm no longer in an abusive relationship 👏
