For fighters, our environment has changed drastically throughout the last decade with the increasing popularity of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. The masses of martial artists are developing their skills in this groundfighting art. Even the most skilled Jeet Kune Do fighter becomes vulnerable when taken to the ground. That is why Jeet Kune Do Groundfighting was created. The Jeet Kune Do Groundfighters main goal is to have the same safe, secure feeling on the ground as a skilled Jeet Kune Do artist does on his feet.
The more educated we are within a system, the easier it is to overcome it. Within this book lies the key to understanding Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, and exposing its weaknesses. This will allow the Jeet Kune Do fighter to continue to "flow like water".., even if taken to the ground.
