Ly Tieu Long returned to the martial arts teaching in Los Angeles around 1967 due to his interrupted acting career. The main reason is that the movie “Blue Bee” was canceled halfway.
During the martial arts teaching, Ly Tieu Long selected some long -term martial arts such as Ted Wong, Dan Lee, Jerry Potet, Herb Jackson, Mito Uyehara, Bob Bremer and Peter Chin to participate in a special training class.
Every Wednesday afternoon, they go to Ly Tieu Long's house to practice and practice. He used boxing gloves, helmets, chest armor and armor for the fights against the students. For Ly Tieu Long, “fighting” by hand in karate is unrealistic, just like “swimming on land”. This Ly martial artist always trained his best until the martial arts gave up.
Ly Tieu Long did not collect any fees for these training sessions, because this was where he tested new methods, techniques and tactics. Then distill yourself to create your own antagonistic philosophy.
In July 1967, Ly Tieu Long introduced Jeet Kune Do – Triet Taoism, translated as “blocking the way”.
“What does it really mean?” Assistant Dan Inosanto asked Ly Tieu Long.
“There are 3 times to attack the opponent: before they attack, when they are attacking and after they attack. Jeet Kune do means blocking the attack when the opponent is attacking. Li Xiaoping explained.
In fact, the word “thoroughly religion” was inspired by Ly Tieu Long from the “blocking” in the sword. He also noted: “Jeet Kune is a sword fighting but not using swords.” In contrast to the boxing always let the hand in the back. Jeet Kune due to his hand in front to attack and block the same blow as in the sword.
Thanks to the above method of fighting, Triet Tao has a very fast and strong speed.
