Our Instructors
Our vision is to share and preserve the techniques passed down to us by our teachers, Sifu Tim Tackett, Sifu Bob Bremer and Sifu Jim Sewell.
Our goal is to provide Jeet Kune Do practitioners from all over the world access to the most complete Chinatown Jeet Kune Do video tutorials and training program available.
Tim Tackett
Tim began his JKD journey in 1971, as part of the backyard JKD group Dan Inosanto began after Bruce Lee had closed his L.A. Chinatown school shortly before moving to Hong Kong to star in The Big Boss.
The class consisted of about 10 students including Bob Bremer, Dan Lee, Richard Bustillo, Jerry Poteet, and Pete Jacobs. Later Chris Kent, Ted Lucaylucay, and Jeff Imada joined a second class.
In 1973, Dan Inosanto honored Tim with the rank of Senior First and he was given permission to teach a small Jeet Kune Do group, and has continued to teach JKD to a select number of students in his garage and in seminars worldwide.
