Jeet Kune Do is notable in that it encourages adaptability to any situation. It is relatively easy to defend oneself from attackers when one is trained to use react to the situation at hand instead of relying on fixed techniques. In fact, this is the perfect martial art for street fighting. Further, this fighting style can be practiced by people of all ages and levels of physical fitness since the fighting style is very subtle and requires the fighter to do feints that put the opponent off guard and to conserve energy whilst fighting. The main benefit of this martial art is that it is perfect for regular people who want to feel safe as they go about their daily lives.

Judo DoJo
Judo (meaning "gentle way") is a modern martial art, combat and Olympic sport created in Japan in 1882 by Jigoro Kano . Its most prominent feature is its competitive element, where the objective is to either throw or takedown an opponent to the ground, immobilize or otherwise subdue an opponent with a pin, or force an opponent to submit with a joint lock or a choke. Strikes and thrusts by hands and feet as well as weapons defenses are a part of judo, but only in pre-arranged forms (kata,) and are not allowed in judo competition or free practice. A judo practitioner is called a judoka.
