Last night we were joined on the mat by Sifu Felix Macias Jr of .oaklandjkd and his assistants to bridge the gap between JKD and FMA. Both are pragmatic, experiment driven combat systems that stem from tradition but favor of what actually works under pressure. Methodically we share centerline interception, broken rhythm, limb destructions and trapping, and fluid transitions between ranges. Spiritually we prize simplicity, adaptability, and a weapon informed logic that keeps empty hand techniques compact and damaging. In application both train tools for chaos, not sport. With the same energy, we continue to work bridging the gap between tribes, styles, and systems for the benefit of those that come after 🤜🏾🫷🏾
