McVicker's Martial Arts Academy
McVicker's Martial Arts Academy teaches the concepts of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu
and Jeet Kune Do. Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is a "grappling" art which teaches joint locks,
chokes and throws. It was developed by the Brazilians to be used in situations where
the opponent may be larger, heavier, and much stronger. Jeet Kune Do concepts were
developed by Bruce Lee after a lifetime of studying 26 different disciplines of
martial arts, ranging from western boxing to Kali knife fighting. Combining the
useful portions of each art, Lee produced an ever-evolving system that teaches
the student to use every aspect of his or her body in a fight.
