The Show
Richard Vigslist talks Jeet Kune Do — the art he's spent nearly fifty years studying, the history he's spent decades verifying, and the bullshit he's spent years calling out. Interview format, straight answers, zero fluff.
"Not everybody's a philosopher — they just want to punch and kick, and that's fun. But there's going beyond the art, and not getting lost within the art. That's what Embodied Truth is about: the true way, the path of what Bruce Lee was pointing toward at the end." — Richard Vigslist
What actually happened — 1965, 1967, James Yimm Lee, and the evolution up to 1973. Sourced, verified, no mythology.
Obey the principles, don't be bound by them. What Bruce Lee actually taught, and what it means in practice.
The fakes, the frauds, the mythology — addressed with evidence. Tactfully, but firmly. The record matters.
