This is what I'm talking about right here! What I really loved about Bruce Lee is the fact that he was a dancer before he truly became an incredible martial artist. When you see his movements on camera particularly before and after his moves, you can tell he was a gifted dancer. He has a lot of grace, fluidity, and really knew his fundamentals. Yes, he created his own style that's really a mix of many yet not catering to one. However, you can see he had a tight grip on his forms, and did them full out and correctly. Just like how I'm b-boying..the foundation is there, and you FLIP it for your use!! Remember, Bruce said it best, "Absorb what is useful; discard what is not". PERFECT QUOTE RIGHT THERE! Shannon Lee, who recently followed me on Twitter by the way (^_-), posted this a few weeks back. I feel this is a very great and rare clip to really see who he was besides the Martial Arts. It's a great clip with some good dancers in it that can correlate how the moves and movement flow together!
I've been fascinated with the martial arts at a very young age. There's something deeply rooted that is more than just moves and movement. There's a spirit/a culture that lies within it all.

Bruce Lee - The Art of Expressing The Human Body
Shannon Lee shows a brief excerpt from Bruce Lee's workout regiment which includes isometrics, cardio, diet, and also putting martial arts (focuses on certain punches and kicks) within his daytimers. Bruce Lee was not exactly the biggest guy (5'7" roughly 150 lbs on average), but what he lacked in "bulk" stature..he made up for in physicality, speed, and ingenuity. Imho, he had the "perfect" body. He utilized/maximized each of his muscles past the typical peak of the human body. This is actually pretty cool, and I will definitely cop his book Bruce Lee - The Art of Expressing the Human Body
, in the near future. Check out the video:
