I can't agree more with the previous post. I looked for a "good" JKD school, and I found a few "teachers" listed. When I researched them I found that basically they were dudes just wrestling around with each other in some available space. I saw some "training photos" this one guy posted on his site - it was the worst thing I think I've ever seen. There were a bunch of guys in jeans and sweat tops grabbing each other in headlocks and struggling their way out. It was truly pathetic.
JKD is a philosophy of martial technique and theory developed by someone who was, himself, the ideal student.
I agree - read the material and get into the headspace. Augment that with training in whatever style suits your body and abilities.

side note: I always wondered what Bruce Lee would be like as a martial artist in his 40s-50s. Its a wonderful fantasy. I wish this story were true.
