JEET KUNE DO

Bruce Lee. He truly was a phenomenon. Few people have achieved so much in so little time. His contributions to the martial arts world last to this day, over thirty years after his untimely death. What allowed this small Asian man, transplanted in the USA, to become so influential? One vitally important factor was his quest for evolution in his personal life and in his expression of the martial arts. Just by looking at how his Jeet Kune Do evolved will give insights into his brilliant attitude toward the self-improvement we all seek.

Lee began his martial arts studies in Hong Kong as a teenager under the tutelage of the legendary Yip Man. He studied the art of Wing Chun for many years, and became known for his effectiveness with the art. He prevailed in many “rooftop” encounters where young men would gather to test out the combat skills they were learning. Practitioners of various systems would fight to prove that their particular style was best. Bruce Lee found that the Wing Chun he was learning worked very well.

Lee moved to Seattle to attend the University of Washington. He majored in philosophy, a discipline that is entwined with his evolution of the art. The mental portion of JKD is actually more important than the physical, because it was the mental understanding and quest for truth that forced the physical art to keep evolving. In Seattle, Lee was able to interact with martial artists of various styles. He found that as effective as his Wing Chun was, it had been designed for close quarter combat. He felt that this was a limitation that he needed to overcome, so he began to add new elements to his art. Over time, this led Lee to call his art Jun Fan Gung Fu. (Lee Jun Fan was his Chinese name.) He also began to add some ground fighting to his art by studying Judo. Another influence was that Lee started teaching publicly. He opened a school and was able to interact with even more people of various backgrounds. His school continued until 1963. Lee married Linda Emery and was ready to move on. He left the school in the capable hands of Taky Kimura and left the state. His new home would change Lee’s understanding of the art and cause a major evolution.

Lee and his new bride moved to Oakland, California, staying at the house of student and kung fu practitioner James Lee. Oakland is near San Francisco. The San Francisco area is known for having a large Chinatown, along with a very large population of people of Chinese heritage. Lee decided to open a school in Oakland with James Lee. The two decided that they would break from tradition and teach the art to non-Chinese. Bruce Lee believed that anyone who was sincere should be allowed to train. At the same time, Lee decided to teach his own style, thinking that this would help avoid traditional rivalries between many of the established styles. He was wrong.

Not long after his school was opened, Lee received a visit from a Gung Fu Master. This master arrived with a group of his followers with a written ultimatum. The master wanted to fight the young Lee, and if Lee lost the fight he would have to either close the school or stop teaching Caucasians. The master seemed surprised when Lee immediately accepted the challenge, rather than backing down. The master then attempted to set forth rules for the bout, but Lee would hear none of it. He made it clear that if someone comes into his school and issues a challenge, then it is going to be a no-rules fight. The fight started, and after a few minutes Lee began to overwhelm his opponent. The master turned and ran. Lee chased him and hit him repeatedly in the back of the head with little effect. He finally grabbed him and dragged the master to the ground where he unleashed a barrage of blows, pummeling his foe into submission. For some, this victory over a skillful master would have been a great testament to their style. For Bruce Lee, it was an incentive to make radical improvements to his methods. Lee analyzed the fight over and over again. While the fight only lasted a few minutes, Lee felt that he should have won in a matter of seconds. The structure of the master’s style allowed him to counter many of Lee’s attacks. Instead of being open to other routes of attack, Lee stuck to his own style without success. When he finally did start to get through the master’s defense, and the master ran away, Lee again stuck to his striking style and punched ineffectively to the back of the head. He finally snapped out of his style and merely grabbed the fleeing opponent and flung him to the ground. Lee realized that he had to go outside of his style to adapt to the situation. According to many close to Lee, this fight was the end of Jun Fan Gung Fu and the beginning of the liberating expression Lee would later call Jeet Kune Do. Bruce Lee’s philosophy became free, eschewing style in favor of being able to adapt to any situation. He learned that if you say, “I do THIS style” that means that you don’t do all the other methods that are available. That limits the fighter to one particular method. If you run up against an opponent who can counter your style, you have no other options. Lee wanted his students to be free from the bondage of any particular style, and eventually, after years of training, just express their own way of fighting.

Lee’s next large evolution happened after he moved to Los Angeles. Southern California was a hotbed of martial arts activity, with many top stylists. Lee was able to interact with many of the very best. This is where he met future protégé’ Dan Inosanto. Inosanto was able to learn under the tutelage of Lee, and Lee could become exposed to portions of the Filipino martial arts. When Lee first started teaching in Los Angeles, he emphasized a great deal of hand trapping along with the sensitivity drill Chi Sao from Wing Chun. After becoming proficient in these methods, Lee introduced his kickboxing methods to the students. Later, Lee decided to start students off with kickboxing first. Lee would have older students spar with newer students and he discovered an interesting trend. Consistently, a student with a few months of kickboxing was able to beat a student with much more experience in trapping, but with little kickboxing experience. This made Lee understand even further his idea that the way to learn how to fight is to practice actual fighting. Lee said “In sparring you should wear suitable protective equipment and go all out. Then you can truly learn the correct timing and distance for the delivery of kicks, punches, etc.” JKD was really a combat art, based upon results in sparring rather than in memorization of techniques. To quote Lee again, “It is not how much fixed knowledge one has accumulated; rather it is what one can apply alively that counts.”

Lee continued on his path of self-improvement as he became involved in the movie industry. He moved farther and farther away from the confines of drills. Taky Kimura stated that Lee called him and told him that “Chi sao is out.” Dan Inosanto said that the last time they sparred, shortly before Lee’s death, that Lee did not even engage in close range. He just moved around the outside and hit at will, setting up precise shots.

With the unfortunate passing of Lee, JKD lost its founder. But fortunately, others carried on the evolution, especially Dan Inosanto. Inosanto has worked at an incredible pace to study every martial art available to him. He has been able to open doors to many arts that would probably have not been seen publicly if it weren’t for his influence. Because of that, JKD practitioners have more to choose from when working toward a personal expression of the arts. Arts such as Muay Thai, Filipino Kali, Indonesian Pentjak Silat, and Thai Krabi Krabong have been made available through Dan Inosanto’s work. And that is just to name a few.

The latest great influence has been due to the emergence of mixed martial arts (MMA) fighting competitions. The usefulness of Brazilian jiu-jitsu, Greco-Roman wrestling, and free style wrestling are now apparent. These competitions have been proving grounds for techniques, as they are very hard fighting sessions where only the best techniques can be used. There has been a great evolution in the sport, and many modern JKD practitioners use these lessons to further improve their expression.

The most current evolution of JKD is to take all of the old methods, test it in an MMA environment, and then add the street tactics that aren’t allowed in the ring sport. This is true to Bruce Lee’s philosophy of training for a real no holds barred fight where everything is allowed. Certain techniques that are not so useful in the ring become very effective when street tactics, such as hair pulling, groin strikes, and eye gouges are allowed. Techniques, postures, and positions must be changed in order to defend against biting and other such attacks. Since “anything goes” in the street, the JKD fighter must be ready for anything. This is beyond style. In the end, you simply become yourself, using whatever you must to win. To quote Lee, “In primary freedom one utilizes all ways and is bound by none, and likewise uses any technique or means which serves its end. Efficiency is anything that scores.” This is the essence of Bruce Lee’s Jeet Kune Do.

AIKIDO

Aikido's founder, Morihei Ueshiba, was born in Japan on December 14, 1883. As a boy, he often saw local thugs beat up his father for political reasons. He set out to make himself strong so that he could take revenge. He devoted himself to hard physical conditioning and eventually to the practice of martial arts, receiving certificates of mastery in several styles of jujitsu, fencing, and spear fighting. In spite of his impressive physical and martial capabilities, however, he felt very dissatisfied. He began delving into religions in hopes of finding a deeper significance to life, all the while continuing to pursue his studies of budo, or the martial arts. By combining his martial training with his religious and political ideologies, he created the modern martial art of aikido. Ueshiba decided on the name "aikido" in 1942 (before that he called his martial art "aikibudo"and "aikinomichi").

On the technical side, aikido is rooted in several styles of jujitsu (from which modern judo is also derived), in particular daitoryu-(aiki)jujitsu, as well as sword and spear fighting arts. Oversimplifying somewhat, we may say that aikido takes the joint locks and throws from jujitsu and combines them with the body movements of sword and spear fighting. However, we must also realize that many aikido techniques are the result of Master Ueshiba's own innovation.

On the religious side, Ueshiba was a devotee of one of Japan's so-called "new religions," Omotokyo. Omotokyo was (and is) part neo-Shintoism, and part socio-political idealism. One goal of Omotokyo has been the unification of all humanity in a single "heavenly kingdom on earth" where all religions would be united under the banner of Omotokyo. It is impossible sufficiently to understand many of O-sensei's writings and sayings without keeping the influence of Omotokyo firmly in mind.

Despite what many people think or claim, there is no unified philosophy of aikido. What there is, instead, is a disorganized and only partially coherent collection of religious, ethical, and metaphysical beliefs which are only more or less shared by aikidoka, and which are either transmitted by word of mouth or found in scattered publications about aikido.

Some examples: "Aikido is not a way to fight with or defeat enemies; it is a way to reconcile the world and make all human beings one family." "The essence of aikido is the cultivation of ki [a vital force, internal power, mental/spiritual energy]." "The secret of aikido is to become one with the universe." "Aikido is primarily a way to achieve physical and psychological self-mastery." "The body is the concrete unification of the physical and spiritual created by the universe." And so forth.

At the core of almost all philosophical interpretations of aikido, however, we may identify at least two fundamental threads: (1) A commitment to peaceful resolution of conflict whenever possible. (2) A commitment to self-improvement through aikido training.

e-gold


Mendaftar e-gold klik di sini, GRATIS


APA ITU E-GOLD
E-Gold adalah suatu alat pembayaran digital baru (digital cash) yang dapat dipergunakan di seluruh dunia, dikeluarkan oleh e-gold Ltd., standar nilainya didasarkan pada 100% harga emas murni yang berlaku di pasar dunia, dan ditampilkan dalam bentuk rekening tabungan e-gold.

E-gold adalah sebuah mata uang seperti halnya rupiah dan dollars, namun bukan merupakan mata uang nasional suatu negara. Ini berarti tidak ada suatu negara yang mengeluarkan uang kertas ataupun logam dalam mata uang e-gold. Malahan setiap transaksi dilakukan secara elektronis melalui internet, tidak terbatas oleh letak geografis suatu negara.

E-gold pada dasarnya mempunyai fungsi yang sama dengan e-mail. Bedanya e-mail adalah sebagai pengganti surat konvensional yang dikirimkan dengan perangko melalui kantor pos, sedangkan e-gold adalah sebagai pengganti (alternatif) untuk transfer uang ataupun pembayaran yang biasa dilakukan melalui perantara bank (ATM, transfer antar bank, bank draft, dan pos wesel).

Boleh dikatakan tidak memiliki e-gold di tahun 2000-an, sama dengan tidak memiliki e-mail di tahun 90-an. Ingatkah Anda, kapan Anda mulai mengenal dan mempunyai e-mail?


MENGAPA MEMAKAI "UANG TUNAI DIGITAL" LEBIH BAIK DIBANDINGKAN DENGAN KARTU KREDIT
Anda tentu sering mendengar ada banyak kejadian dimana seseorang mencuri nomor kartu kredit orang lain dan menggunakannya untuk berbelanja di internet, maka si pemegang kartu kredit tentu akan kehilangan uangnya.

Dengan sistem pembayaran baru menggunakan digital cash ini, Anda hanya perlu menaruh sejumlah uang sesuai dengan kebutuhan sendiri misalnya untuk berbelanja di internet, dan sistem keamanan online payment ini benar-benar bagus. Bila anda sebagai seorang merchant, Anda dapat mengintegrasikan sistem payment e-gold ini ke dalam website Anda, tentunya dengan biaya yang jauh lebih murah (bahkan bisa dikatakan gratis) dan aman dibandingkan dengan sistem kartu kredit.

MENGAPA E-GOLD LEBIH BAIK DIBANDINGKAN DENGAN JENIS "DIGITAL CASH" YANG LAIN
Sebenarnya ada beberapa jenis mata uang digital yang dikeluarkan oleh sejumlah perusahaan khususnya di Amerika sebelum e-gold, tetapi ternyata mereka banyak kekurangannya. Pada kenyataannya mereka hanya menggunakan mata uang nasional (US$) untuk mem-backup digital cash mereka, sehingga orang dari negara lain mengalami kesulitan untuk menggunakannya. Misalnya PayPal, NetPay, dan lain-lain, dan Indonesia sistem tersebut tidak bisa dipakai hanya terbatas di negara tertentu saja, dan biayanya pun cukup tinggi.

E-gold berbeda dan merupakan perusahaan pertama yang menawarkan sistem tunai digital yang distandarkan atas 100% nilai emas murni. Perusahaan e-gold, Ltd. memiliki emas murni di London Bank, dan menjualnya melalui internet. Jika Anda memiliki uang di rekening e-gold, berarti Anda adalah sebagai bagian dari pemilik emas tersebut. Anda dapat melihat berapa euro atau dollars (dalam mata uang yang lain) jumlah uang di rekening Anda dan tentu saja Anda dapat menggunakannya untuk berbelanja di internet dalam mata uang lokal.

Salah satu fungsi terbaik dari e-gold adalah dapat ditukar di seluruh dunia dan dalam mata uang negara manapun. Jadi pada suatu transaksi di internet, seorang pembeli dapat membayar dengan dollar dan penjual menerima uang dalam bentuk euro atau mata uang lainnya, TANPA KENA BIAYA TAMBAHAN karena pada dasarnya mereka hanya melakukan pertukaran emas murni.

APAKAH MEMBUAT REKENING E-GOLD BENAR-BENAR GRATIS
Benar! Anda dapat membuat sebuah rekening e-gold tanpa membayar apapun dan tanpa kewajiban memberikan setoran awal alias GRATIS tis... tis... tis...

Anda hanya akan membayar 1% untuk setiap transaksi yang dilakukan (maximum fee 0.50$ untuk setiap traksaksi), jadi misalnya Anda melakukan transaksi sejumlah 1000$, Anda hanya akan membayar fee sebesar 0.50$ (50 cents). Sementara untuk kartu kredit terkena fee sebesar 2%-4% dari total jumlah uang yang dibelanjakan.

Anda juga hanya akan membayar uang tahunan sebesar 1% dari jumlah uang yang Anda simpan di e-gold (sangat kecil jika dibandingkan dengan iuran kartu kredit).

JIKA SAYA MEMBUAT REKENING E-GOLD, APAKAH MEMBUTUHKAN KARTU KREDIT
TIDAK! Anda tidak membutuhkan kartu kredit untuk membuat sebuah rekening e-gold. Tanpa memiliki kartu kredit Anda tetap bisa memiliki rekening e-gold.

BAGAIMANA CARA MENGISI UANG DI REKENING E-GOLD
Ada beberapa cara yang bisa Anda lakukan:
  • Memperoleh e-gold secara gratis dengan trading valas / forex di marketiva, Anda akan diberikan uang tunai sebesar $5 yang bisa Anda tarik ke rekening e-gold Anda setelah modal gratis tersebut Anda kembangkan sampai minimal menjadi $10.
  • Membeli sejumlah e-gold di merchant resmi e-gold yang dapat Anda bayar melalui ATM, transfer bank, ataupun kartu kredit dengan biaya yang kecil. Anda bisa membeli e-gold di indochanger.

Referensikan e-gold kepada teman-teman Anda dan dapatkan 25% dari setiap komisi e-gold pada setiap transaksi. Contoh:
  • Anda mereferensikan e-gold Anda kepada si A.
  • Si A membeli sebuah e-book dari internet sebesar 10.00$.
  • Maka si A membayar sebesar 0.10$ (1%) kepada e-gold.
  • E-gold memberikan 0.025$ kepada Anda yang telah mereferensikan si A (25% dari 1%).
Karena komisi maksimun yang diterima e-gold adalah sebesar 0.50$, maka Anda hanya akan menerima maksimum sebesar 0.125$ untuk setiap transaksi, bayangkan jika terjadi banyak transaksi.

BAGAIMANA CARANYA MENCAIRKAN E-GOLD SAYA KE DALAM RUPIAH
Bila Anda ingin mencairkan e-gold ke dalam bentuk mata uang rupiah, misalnya untuk berbelanja di supermarket atau di warteg, di masa yang akan datang barangkali ada warteg di Indonesia yang menerima pembayaran dengan e-gold.

Yang perlu Anda lakukan adalah menjual kembali e-gold Anda sesuai dengan kebutuhan. Untuk menjual e-gold dapat menghubungi merchant e-gold di Indonesia contohnya indochanger. Dalam transaksi tersebut Anda akan mentransfer e-gold ke rekening merchant dan Anda akan menerima uang dalam bentuk rupiah (biasanya melalui ATM atau transfer bank, disarankan Bank Central Asia).

Demikian sekilas tentang e-gold, semoga dapat memberikan sedikit pencerahan. Informasi lebih lanjut tentang e-gold bisa anda dapatkan di websitenya langsung.

HAPKIDO

HAPKIDO

Hapkido is a powerful and innovative Korean martial art. Literally translated, the word Hap means coordination of harmony, Ki denotes the essence of power, and Do means the art, or the way.

Hapkido employs powerful kicking techniques like Korean Tae Kyon, throwing techniques like Japanese Aikido and Jujitsu, and hand techniques like Chinese Kenpo. It is concise and practical, the result of a 1300 year pursuit of the ultimate lifestyle.

History of Hapkido

Thirteen centuries ago, the land currently occupied by North and South Korea consisted of three kingdoms - Kokuryo, Paikche and Silla. The people of Kokuryo were known for their military and intellectual skills (head). The Silla were craftsman (hands). The Paikche were agrarian (feet).

During this time it was felt that the security of many lay in the strength, physical and mental endurance of a select few. A group of elite young noblemen developed a "way of life". The "way" was based upon strict adherence to a code of ethics and disciplined life style dedicated to living in harmony with the natural laws of the universe. This "way" came to be known as Hwarangdo.

Wars and insurrections were a common way of life. King Chin-Heung in concert with the Mogols succeeded in overthrowing the rulers of Kokuryo and Paikche. The Silla Dynasty was born. Upon defeat, the remaining royalty of Paikche and Kokuryo kingdoms fled to the mountains or to the sea to escape execution. A group of people from Kokuryo sailed to the island of Hokkaido. Another group sailed from Paikche to Kyushu and established some of the first ancient settlements of Japan. It is said that many parts and concepts of Japanese "Bushido" are based upon martial art practices drawn from this ancient community.

Those that fled to the mountains established a monastic order and carried on their traditions in secret for the next 500 years. During this time the martial arts were practiced and refined by devoted monks. Many of the monasteries developed their own fighting style known as Tae Kyon. This is primarily a martial art of kicking.

The Japanese Army invaded and ruled Korea from 1909 through the end of World War II. During that period it was not uncommon for Korean families and treasures to be relocated to Japan. During the Japanese occupation a young boy, Yong Sul Choi, and his parents were sent to Japan. By the age of nine, Yong Sul Choi was alone and living with a group of monks in a Buddhist temple. After a few years it was apparent to the monks that Yong Sul Choi was not suited for monastic life.

At this time many great warriors - in accordance with ancient traditions - would make an annual pilgrimage throughout Japan seeking matches to improve their fighting techniques. During their travels they would visit the local temples offering prayers and donations. One such warrior, Master Shokaku Takeda, would pay regular visits to this monastery. The monks, seeing an opportunity, beseeched Master Takeda to take the young Choi as a servant.

His father and grandfather taught Master Takeda the art of swordsmanship. When he failed to learn or execute a technique fast enough, his fingers were singed. Master Takeda taught a weaponless martial art known as Daito-Ryu Aiki Jujitsu. This art emphasized the use of joint locks, strikes and nerve attacks to neutralize an opponent. The young Choi served Master Takeda by taking care of household matters.

After many years of observation, young Choi begged Master Takeda to train him. Master Takeda's method was to throw the young Choi at random until he learned intuitively sense an attack and defend it.

Master Choi remained in Japan for 35 years training under Master Takeda. Near the end of World War II, Master Choi returned to Korea and opened a small school in Taegu, the third largest city in Korea. He began training a small group of students informally. Master Yong Sul Choi is credited with the founding of modern day Hapkido.

Philosophy of Hapkido

The philosophy of Hapkido stems from three basic principles. The first is non-resistance. Yield to your opponent by meeting force with minimum force to deflect and not clash with your opponent's power. The second is circular motion. This is the use of circular, fluid, flowing movements, as opposed to linear movements. The third is water principle. This is defined as total penetration of an opponent's defenses through continual attack. Instead of opposing force with force, Hapkido completes the opponent's movement by "accepting his flow of energy as he aims it", and defeats him by "borrowing his own force."

In order to reconcile oneself to the changing movements of the opponent, the Hapkido student should first of all understand the true meaning of Um and Yang, the basic structure of Hapkido. Hapkido is based on the symbol of Um and Yang, a pair of mutually complimentary and interdependent forces that act continuously, without cessation, in this universe. Um and Yang is one inseparable force of one unceasing interplay of movement. They are conceived of as essentially one, or as two coexisting forces of one indivisible whole.

A good Hapkido practitioner does not oppose force or give way completely. A Hapkido practitioner is pliable as a spring. He or she is the compliment and not the opposition to his or her opponent's strength.
