About the Academy
Established in the pursuit of Jeet Kune Do Concepts and Philosophy through the training and testing of martial arts. The teachers and students of the academy strive for self-perfection through the continuous training of self-defense and combat principals.
At the heart of JKD Concepts are the words, ‘no way as way, no limitation as limitation.’ Bruce Lee left behind a work for any martial artist that would take it on, to find his or her own way. The path is laid out by his example, train and learn, from many sources. ‘Absorb what is useful, reject what is useless.’ Ultimately, discover yourself, and what works for you individually. Share and grow.
The Zirger Academy of JKD is a place where novices and experts alike can walk the path, sharing their journeys and strengthening a community that contributes to their own training.
Classes are small, and progress is rapid. This is an educational experience where nothing is held back, there are no secret moves, or level requirements. There is however, a very clear and attainable method for developing your understanding and your skills.
