What Patches Have You All Got?

[PhotonGuy]

From what I know about JKD they don't use belts to denote rank they use patches. You wear a patch on your uniform, depending on your rank. So what patches have all you JKD practitioners got?

Uh oh. I’m concerned about your timing.

Including me.

I got to tell you, I never meant a JKD person, in a JKD class, that had a specific uniform.... therefore, no patches....

 

[Oily Dragon]

This is my patch. I can't bear to sew it onto anything yet, but maybe someday.

None of the JKD guys I know use patches to denote rank.

They don't use these? I've read about these being used for rank in JKD.

I have close friends who are instructors under Ted Wong and Dan Inosanto, neither one has any patches. As others have said, no uniforms, so no patches. And I'm doubting Bruce Lee wore an empty circle to signify who he was.

When I briefly trained JKD, I trained with guys that came from Dan Inosanto and Jerry Poteet, and Poteet plus a few other 1st generation JKD guys...none use rank, uniforms or patches

Understand, rank, belts, patches, are not a traditional Chinese martial arts thing and although JKD is not TCMA, it is where Bruce Lee came from with Wing Chun.

Most of our guys wear an American Flag patch on their uniform sleeve.

It’s quite possible that there is a JKD school somewhere which has adopted a rank system denoted by patches like that, but I don’t think it’s any kind of standard widespread practice.

Tell Elvis to put my wife on the list, she is not bored, but she is a hand full for only being 4'11
