Bruce Lee Eyes Aware PosterSOME HISTORY In the memorable year of 1963 in the Fall Season, the Seattle based Jun Fan Gung Fu Institute is relocated into a building near the university campus. The address is 4750 University Way. In the summer of 1964, Bruce moves to Oakland to open a second school. Taky Kimura, his good friend, takes over the Seattle based school as head instructor. A day to remember, August 17, 1964, Bruce returns to Seattle to ask for Linda Emery's hand in marriage. After, they reside back in Oakland. In Oakland, 1964, after several months of teaching students, Bruce is challenged by a leading Gung Fu practinioner in the Chinatown Community. If Bruce were to lose the challenge, he was either to close his school or put an end to his teaching to non-Chinese. At that time, Chinese didn't accept teaching non-Chinese their martial arts. In the 1900's, the Boxer Rebellion were severely beaten by Western Forces. The Boxer Rebellion desired the Westeners to be expelled from China. The Western Forces punished this rebellion and gave beatings to the Chinese Army. Therefore, Chinese are reluctant to teach Westeners their martial arts. Bruce accepts this challenge and wins in only a couple of minutes. But Bruce was upset though on why the fight took longer than usual so he begins to re-evaluate his style. Thus, the early concepts of Jeet Kune Do (JKD) were born.
