We are hosting the FIRST EVER special 1-day workshop: Irish Stick Fighting Meets Bruce Lee’s Jeet Kune Do – Sat 25 April 2026 with the legendary Bernie Leddy and Sifu Lak Loi.
Irish Stick Fighting – Bataireacht or Irish Stick Fighting is a devastatingly effective combative stick fighting system using the famous Irish Shillelagh. Rather than most Irish styles which use one-hand like fencing, Chieftain Bernie Leddy’s instructors, The Doyles, evolved this to a much more close-quarter two-handed style fusing the principles of pugilism into the motions of the Irish Stick, famously known as the Doyle Irish Stick.
Jeet Kune Do, Bruce Lee’s revolutionary street-fighting martial art, strips away the unnecessary, focusing only on what works — fluid, adaptable, and brutally effective. It’s about efficiency, directness, and personal expression in combat.
Put them together, and you get an immersive, high-energy experience blending Irish Stick with modern combative practicality and deep philosophy — a rare chance to learn from both worlds in one unforgettable weekend.
