Mr. Wallace is so charismatic and engaging. He would be an excellent teacher in any subject.
My Tae Kwon Do instructor based a lot of his teaching on Bill's fighting style, though one thing he added was that we also blocked a lot with the shin of our lead leg. So if someone was coming in, we also had three options for blocking, as we'd block low with our shins, mid and high with our hands. Bill's contributions to the practice of Martial Arts are definitely massive and not to be understated.

I will never forget...he uses his left leg and 3 kicks, side kick, round house and hook kick (often in combos). I remember him being a great teacher with a fun sense of humour, and a child-like energy. Really happy to see him still so active and excited about sharing his knowledge. Such a great guy.

I've had the good fortune attending a few of his seminars. Always amazing, professional and 100% on point! One of the greats!
His knowledge, charisma, enthusiasm and personality makes Superfoot the most popular seminar personality and it is here in full display. I love how Bill breaks down and simplify his unique sideways fighting system. He got the most out of using only five weapons to dominate point fighting in 1960-70s to full contact karate in 1980s and beyond. He was ahead of his time for sure. Thank you Jesse. You asked all the right questions.
Bill Super Foot Wallace, still fast, fit, and sharp minded. **bowing in respect** 100% Champ. And, rare advice on healing from injuries. We're told way too often to push through and keep training, but that's a good way make things waaay worse or create permanent damage out of a minor injury that would have healed. Bill Wallace is cool, his old fights are really good, and he's always been a thinker.

Agreed. Though a little clarification: Bruce Lee's JKD concepts actually predate Bruce Lee. They are older martial art concepts that Bruce brought together in a hybrid-like system (not a style). Most of these were regarded by kung fu masters as closely guarded secrets and in combination with teaching westerners, Bruce was not very welcomed by the old school practitioners. For example the intercepting fist is actually reading, or "intercepting" the intent of the opponent; This is a very old method in kung fu usually described as reacting second but striking first. Bruce's innovation was combining these methods, or "hacks", and presenting them in a way that can be adopted and integrated into literally any style. For example Chuck Norris was a student of Bruce Lee, but Chuck's style was Tang Soo Do. I would say it's very similar to what Jesse is doing with his, if I may, hybrid style of Karate. I hope no one is offended as I mean no offense. Respect and love to all present and past as we continue to grow and learn from eachother. 🙏👍
Mr. Wallace is very articulate instructor. He basically developed his own style, a very effective one. Back in the day, I've seen him in his prime on tv. It was hard to see his kicks because he was lightning fast. I'm quite sure he is still entirely capable of fast and precise technique. Such a great man and martial artist!
Wow, he still looks like he’s in amazing shape here. Legend!
There is a lot to be learned from Bill's style. Much like Oscar De La Hoya, he used one side of his body for offense, and the other for defense (primarily). If you don't throw strikes from across your body, you really can't over commit to a strike, or become off balance as easily. Bill then added to that by generating power from his striking side (his left hand and foot). Bill could throw strikes with speed, or with power from his lead hand/lead foot. He also was a master of disguising his strikes by having them all look like the same strike until halfway through throwing it, when he chose a target. All his punches started out looking like a jab, all his kicks looked like a snap kick, until he committed. I've always felt this is not only a style meant for point karate, but possibly MMA too. Not enough people know Bill's story, or how legit he is. This guy was the UFC before UFC, hell he even was an announcer for the UFC in the early days. Badass.

Bill Superfoot Wallace is STILL a student of the game so humble and willing to learn which in turn makes him a master in martial arts, always learning always striving to get better!

Great guy in every angle, sincere, dedicated, with no inflated ego.
I did one session with GM Bill Wallace in Brisbane Australia 25 years ago approx, he was as enthusiastic then as he is in your interview. He walked into the stadium and I RE-learnt the most valuable lesson, that I taught all my students from that moment on, NEVER judge a book by its cover. GM Wallace is and by the look of your video still is a supreme athlete a Gentle-man. Oh and he can smile while he is kicking you IN THE HEAD! I CAN STILL SEE HIM now teaching us almost 100 Black belts of all levels. Then we started sparring I was in ore of this great man he stopped us all a few moments later and reminded us he loves to kick the harder you kick the more I like, But remember how many professional fights you have had and I have had???? He SMILED a BIGGER SMILE and the room full of testosterone suddenly returned to a training environment. TOTAL RESPECT FOR G.M. Bill Wallace.

I just love Bill's passion and enthusiasm. And, his ability to use his limitations as strengths. Many lessons from him. I'd love to have a trainer like him.
Even at his "Advanced" stage in life, for some reason I still feel that messing with him would not turn out well for most people. Shows that Karate is practical, when taught properly. To this day, he is still a bad man. May thanks for the giving me the chance to grow up watching you fight, Superfoot! As a side note, Joe Lewis used this stance to fight alot too. Was really good at it!

Many thanks for this Jesse. Just before his retirement fight I trained with Bill for best part of a day. He complimented me saying I had good round kick, good side kick, but I was dropping my knee on the hook kick. 39 years later, having worked on it, I dont drop the knee. Thats one of the key points fighting sideways, every kick comes from the same high knee position, every punch can be delivered from that guard style he uses, esp his left hook surprised alot of good fighters.
Greetings! Sensi Wallace is a TRUE legend! I remember watching him in the 70s and 80s! MAN, you can just TELL he STILL has so much power behind his movements. What a WONDERFUL treat for all of Jesse! Thanks so much for sharing this with us!😊❤🥋

I love mr Wallace and have been blessed to train with mr Wallace on more than a few occasions . I’m also an MMA / bjj coach - Back in his time , yes that style and stance worked and he was a beast with it for my sport. Bladed stance , in my opinion should be done but limited , due to the ability to easily have your back taken in my sport MMA [ self defense because even thugs know “take the back “ and choke). Lead leg kicks can more easily jammed and or open to being rendered soft and opportunities for “takedowns” are handed over on a platter. Mr Wallace is a phenomenal athlete and was an absolute beast that could pull this off. I’m not saying it wouldn’t work , it’s just a tool, many people that are handy can’t use a “wood lathe” but it’s still a good tool. I don’t think it replaces a hammer, and saw. The thing I took from him that is 100 is , be on the attack , speed works , and fakes and set ups are necessary. Mr Wallace is a national treasure and I would never say a cross word about this man.

I also thought this, his intercept side kick reminds me of a Bruce Lee demonstration of JKD

Amazing testimony by this world champion. Thank you Jesse for asking all these questions and getting us these great answers. Your video will be part of history once he leaves us (as late as possible hopefully 🤞)
Absolutely love this guy. Had the privilege of training at his seminar and shaking his hand! Super engaging and an outstanding practical instructor!
Wow... So much energy and i think the best advise... Be positive !
*I like how sensei jesse talks, he talks with passion and enthusiasm*
Bill Wallace is a true legend! Definitely an inspiration in my early martial arts development. Great to see he’s still active and fit, goes to show you that age is only a number.
