The Cantonese word for Interception is Jeet - as in Jeet Kune Do
The Japanese word would be BOJU - Interception or Intercepting
Boju Ken Do would be Interception Fist Way
Boju Do Ken - Intercepting Way Fist
Ken is Fist and Do is Way in Japan
Ken is the Sword in Kendo and Kenjutsu - "weapon" and "fist" being the same in concept
Kenpo means Fist Law
We use the BOJU in Kenjutsu - the Intercepting Thrust
Boju Tsuki
Interestingly, in Chinese, Kune is Way and Do is Fist, as the order is different
Jeet Kune Do is actually Intercepting Way Fist
The Way of the Intercepting Kick would be Jeet Kune Tek - Intercepting Way Kick
So as we use primarily Japanese MA we could say we do not do JKD we do
BDK - Boju Do Ken - Intercepting Way Fist
or
BDT - Boju Do Tsuki - Intercepting Way Thrust
more properly
BTD - Boju Tsuki Do - Intercepting Thrust Way - The Way Of The Intercepting Thrust
this applies to the Sword Tsuki thrust - and then the Karate Tsuki punch
with Rapier Thrust Chasse - which is then the Savate thrust kick
