Reviews

These are great books if you are starting either Kung Fu classes, or enrolling in a Jeet Kune Do academy. Both provide the basic information about the art. I would easily recommend these to anyone that was starting up their new martial path, and wanted to know what to expect from the Kung Fu that they signed up for, or even how Jeet Kune Do differs from other martial arts. - Jaredd Wilson, Martial Thoughts
