Jeet Kune Do is a martial art and philosophy developed by Bruce Lee that emphasizes efficiency, simplicity, and directness in combat. It is a hybrid style that incorporates elements of Wing Chun, Western boxing, fencing, and other fighting systems, and emphasizes the use of intercepting strikes, footwork, and sensitivity to opponent's movements.

Some of the strengths of Jeet Kune Do include:

Intercepting attacks: Jeet Kune Do teaches practitioners to intercept and counter their opponent's attacks as they are launched, rather than simply blocking or evading them. By anticipating an opponent's movements and attacking them as they move, practitioners can disrupt their opponent's rhythm and maintain control of the fight. Intercepting attacks also allows practitioners to use their opponent's momentum against them, which can be especially effective against larger or stronger opponents.
