Chinese Kung Fu is a name used to refer to traditional Chinese martial arts in foreign countries. A series of Chinese fitness exercises practiced with or without weapons, Kung Fu employs various offensive and defensive kicks, hits, punches and chops. Types of Kung Fu practiced bare-handed include Tai Chi, Shaolin and Wudang martial arts. During the 1960s and 1970s traditional Chinese martial arts became known in the world as “Chinese Kung Fu”. For that we must be grateful to Mr. Bruce Lee (1940–1973), a martial arts master and Hollywood film star. Bruce Lee is the founder of Jeet Kune Do, a martial arts philosopher and a pioneer of kung fu movies. Thanks to him “Chinese Kung Fu” can now be found in English dictionaries. Bruce Lee dramatically promoted the development of martial arts and kung fu movies. He developed over 200 million film fans, more than any other martial arts star in the world. Americans call him the “King of Kung Fu”, and Japanese say he’s the “Master of Martial Arts”. In the eyes of many foreigners, Bruce Lee is the representative image of Chinese martial arts. Despite being only 32 Bruce Lee made six great kung fu movies and created an immortal oriental legend.
