Instructor Profiles and Qualifications
The global popularity of BRUCE LEE and his martial art JEET KUNE DO has led to many people being duped by people who say they are Jeet Kune Do Instructors but are not or people who have minimal qualifications and understanding of the art.
The AJKDA has instituted a six-point check on all instructors while maintaining an on-going program that ensures the instructor is updated and continually checked in terms of competency and their teaching capabilities. The numbers listed after the Instructor’s name are linked to the checking points listed below
1. The Instructor is certified by a verified source as a JKD Instructor
2. The Instructor is accredited as a JKD Instructor under the NMAS or NCAS Accreditation programs
3. The Instructor is insured by an APRA regulated Insurer
4. The Instructor has undergone a technical and concepts competency check within the last 12 months
5. The Instructor has under gone a mentor assessment on teaching techniques within the last 12 months
6. The Instructor is bound by the National Code of Practice for Martial Arts Instructors and The MAIA Martial Arts Risk Management Policy.
The numbers after the Instructor’s name reflect the level of compliance with this Six Point Checking System.
There are other Jeet Kune Do Instructors in Australia. If you would like a check done on a instructor to gauge their compliance with the AJKDA six point check then please email us at info@jkd.com.au
