Students of the Legend
Following is the list of the ones who had the privilege of receiving Master Lee's asset directly from Him. These men are fortunate because they were born in the age of Master Lee, because they could experience the storm called Bruce Lee. They directly learnt under Master Lee. Today Master Lee's JKD is surviving and flourishing under these great men. If one feels to see the truest form of Master Lee he will certainly find it in these men because Master Lee is present in every one of these in some form or another. The thinking /way of expressing of all these stalwarts may differ in relation to fighting, but all of these have a common core which is called JEET KUNE DO or say BRUCE LEE.
( Certainly this is not a complete list, many must be missing, we apologies. If any one has got more information please forward it to us and involve yourself in the effort of spreading true information about Master Lee)
