Straight Blast
It’s not necessarily original JKD.
It’s not necessarily “new” JKD.
It’s not necessarily Kali and Silat.
It’s not necessarily Muay Thai.
It’s not necessarily Savate.
THIS IS WHAT IT IS:
- Pain–Pressure (Straight Blast)–Terminate.
- Interception (defense)
- Three Types of Fighters.
- The Five Ways of Attack.
That’s what took me nearly 35+ years to truly understand.
That’s what you need to focus on.
To be able to end street fights in seconds.
Simply.
Like Bruce did.
Rapid Assault Tactics (RAT) gives you the defense and the body. It also adds destructions (defang the snake).
Joe Lewis had the 5 ways of attack and the 3 types of fighters. That’s the offense.
Not sport.
Things like eye jabs and breaking their legs with low line kicks.
Especially the eye jab and the lead side kick.
Champions only focus on a few techniques.
Not millions of techniques.
Not necessarily “kickboxing.”
Not necessarily strong-side forward.
Not necessarily “move hand first.”
Not necessarily classical JKD techniques—yes, efficiency matters.
Not necessarily grinding yourself to exhaustion every day.
Not necessarily 50 different arts.
These things help but they are not the differentiator.
STRATEGY is the differentiator.
And simplicity. Again, not a million techniques, not a million arts.
And efficient techniques and attributes.
And the ability to pass through the door of insanity when the rubber hits the road and execute. Killer instinct.
There it is.
Thousands of dollars invested. Possibly more.
DVDs. VHS tapes. In-person seminars with the greats.
Research, development, hard sparring.
All boiled down.
Jeet Kune Do is simply to simplify – Bruce Lee
Legends never die.
To my knowledge, this simple and comprehensive system of street fighting domination is not documented anywhere.
RATsynthesis.com Teaches the Bruce Lee Street Fighting System as its main strategy. We enhance this with kickboxing inspired by Mike Tyson and Denis Decker’s gung fu/Bagua. We also include the counter-ground fighting from Rapid Assault Tactics (RAT).
