Fifty years after the death of Bruce Lee, who galvanised the imaginations of generations of young people worldwide with feats of kung fu immortalised on screen, it sometimes seems as if his legacy of the martial art he practiced is fading in Hong Kong.
Captivated by the skill displayed in Lee’s performance, Tam, who was just 10 at the time, became a lifelong admirer. “Martial arts are not solely about fighting,” Tam added. “My instructor often emphasises that self-defense is about avoiding conflict and focusing on self-improvement.” The swift pace of life in one of the world’s most expensive cities often conflicts with the time and effort required to master the traditional martial art, while soaring rents make it tough to set up schools.
Set up in 1967 by seven Hong Kong disciples of Lee’s influential teacher, the association functions out of a flat bought to serve as its headquarters, staying mostly unchanged for six decades, with original brown tiles still intact. Even so, some enthusiasts, such as Iranian-Australian Nima King, trained by another student of Ip Man, have sought to modernise the teaching style.
