Jeet Ken Do is the study of the combat aspects of the sword, primarily that of the Japanese Katana, but also embraces other cultures of sword fighting applications and techniques.

The practitioner of Jeet Ken Do is focused on the fighting concepts of the sword, but also uses the sword to development a greater understanding and development of "aiki" and "chi gung."

Jeet Ken Do is a "sub-art" of Bushido Kempo, which is headed up by Professor Gary Dill, Grandmaster, 10 th degree black belt. The main Japanese sword arts are Ken-Jutsu and Iai-Jutsu. Ken-Jutsu is an aggressive method of swordmanship, which puts blade against blade, whereas Iai-Jutsu deals more with the art of drawing and cutting with the sword. Both arts are incorporated into Jeet Ken Do. Jeet Ken Do incorporates the use of the live blade, the training blade, and the wooden bokken, depending upon the type of training.

Jeet Ken Do means...."the way of the intercepting sword."

With the sword, we will utilize the most efficient and practical technique to eliminate and/or terminate our enemy.
