Wing Chun students pay their respect at the tomb of grandmaster Ip Man, in Hong Kong, China April 16, 2023. The Ving Tsun Athletic Association holds classes, social events and arranges annual memorial ceremonies such as grave sweeping for Ip Man, under whom Bruce Lee studied at the age of 13. But of late, attendance at such rituals has been dropping off. 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. 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.
