Jeet Kune Do Squares Up With a Punjabi Battlefield Art in Hertfordshire

JKD London is running a one-day workshop that pairs Bruce Lee's Jeet Kune Do with Shastar Vidiya, which the organiser describes as an ancient battlefield martial art from the Punjab. It calls this the first ever session combining the two.

It takes place on Saturday 21 November at Woolmer Green Hall, Hall Lane, Woolmer Green, Hertfordshire SG3 6XA. The workshop is led by Guru Nidar Singh Nihang and Sifu Lak Loi.

JKD London describes Shastar Vidiya as a living tradition of weaponry and strategy, and Jeet Kune Do as the art that strips away the unnecessary and keeps only what works. Its event page says Jeet Kune Do is about "efficiency, directness, and personal expression in combat."

Arrival and registration start at 9:30am, and everyone needs to be registered by 10:00am. Training runs from 10:00am to 4:00pm. Tickets are £90 early bird or £125 standard, and the organiser says places are limited.

The start time is listed as 10:00am sharp, so allow for Hertfordshire traffic.
