Bruce Lee is the grandmaster of Tandez Academy. He is the founder of our fighting system, Jeet Kune Do. We teach and train his base art called Jun Fan Gung Fu, which has a philosophy and a standardized curriculum that blends Western Boxing, Wing Chun, Fencing Concepts, Muay Thai and Savate into one. To this, we add Jeet Kune Do Concepts, which blends Kali, Silat, Judo, Wrestling, Chinese Gung Fu, and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu into the mix. Bruce Lee's progressive system is the very first mixed martial arts, but designed for the street.
