  • JEET KUNE DO MASTERS Vol-2
    Sifu Taky Kimura & Sifu Leo T Fong
    Sifu Taky Kimura - is the senior member of the JKD family and one of the Bruce Lee’s closest friends. Bruce took him under his wing and made him his assistant in the Jun Fan Gung Fu Institute in Seattle. During the years following Bruce’s death, Taky Kimura decided to be silent about his training and relationship with the founder of Jeet Kune Do. As a human being, Taky Kimura is extremely humble and respectful to his teacher and to the art that he received. For almost four decades, Taky Kimura have been teaching the Jun Fan method of gung-fu in his basement. He doesn’t advertise for students and he likes to walk softly. As a teacher, he understands his students and supports them in any direction they decide to go. Since 1973 he has taken care of his sifu’s grave and keeps it clean by visiting several times a week. “It’s not a chore. It’s an honor and a privilege. It’s a humble way of paying back everything Bruce did for me.”
    Sifu Leo T. Fong - Long before people thought of the name Mixed Martial Arts, one man already was mastering the total approach to free fighting. There were others who combined techniques and created eclectic styles, but no one had integrated the basic fighting tools into one combat strategy that allows the fighter to move effortlessly and respond like a sound and an echo.
    In the early 1970s, Leo Fong created “Wei Kuen Do”, which literally means the “Way of the Integrated Fist”. He was inspired by his friend and colleague Bruce Lee to create his own fighting system based on his unique knowledge and skills in the martial arts. Leo had been living in the Bay Area and training in a variety of Kung Fu systems and other Martial Arts but he always had been a boxer at heart. Whenever he was asked to spar, he would forget about whatever particular style he was supposed to be training in that day and instead would fight like a boxer, but with the additional skills of kicking and grappling.

    Very sad to hear Taky just passed away to today at age 96. my deepest condolences to his son and students. He was the most humble soul i ever meet in my life and was so loyal to Bruce even after he pass away would take care of his grave and talk with his fans, This is a true lost in the martial World . RIP

    I am a fan of bruce lee when I was a little child but from the martial art point of view but when I grow up I start reading about Bruce lee and watching his autobiography.Recently i ve watched a series of bruce lee and his life with his friends especially the great master mr kimura and all his friends I understand the phylosophy of bruce lee's martial art and the object of bruce lee's fights with great masters.Besides,I watched the movie of ipman bruce's master.Really I respect all the masters of different martial arts .Everyone has a dream and willingness he can acheive whatever he or she likes.

      He also had guts and disipline and that killer instinct like Bruce. But he never really bothered to upgrade his mind a whole lot but he was a killer but dident really try to learn everything about boxing he just got a teacher and he had immence disipline and patience but not exactly wisdom like bruce if that makes sence. Still pretty snart now but it is inevitable that ur body ages.

    What different between sifu Kimura vs. Dan Inosanto. Kimura is very loyal to Bruce Lee and sadly misses even turn 90s. Jesse is also very loyal to Bruce Lee.
    But, what I can see for Dan Inosanto is more about himself and to learn all of Bruce Lee's secrets. I'm sure he missed Bruce too...
