    The Wider Image: Fifty years on, Bruce Lee’s legacy squares

    Dorothy Tam, 60, practices during a Wing Chun class, in Hong Kong, China July 14, 2023. Only in 2019 did Tam overcome her initial apprehension towards Hong Kong's male-dominated martial arts scene to start learning Wing Chun, the southern Chinese style of the martial art in which Bruce Lee had trained. "I discovered it's actually a martial art suitable for women as well, emphasizing softness to overcome hardness," said Tam. "Martial arts are not solely about fighting. My instructor often emphasises that self-defense is about avoiding conflict and focusing on self-improvement." REUTERS/Tyrone Siu
