Born in the US, Lee returned to Hong Kong with his father and was educated there. In that period he learned basic Chinese martial arts and wingchun kungfu. Later he combined wingchun kungfu with Western boxing and Japanese karate to produce a unique style called jiequandao. With this, Lee opened his own academy and began showing up in films.
他在美國出生，爾後隨父親回到香港受教育，這期間他學過基本國術如詠春拳，後來融合美國的西洋拳、日本空手道和中國的詠春拳，自創出一套獨門功夫﹘﹘截拳道，靠著這個，李小龍開設武館授徒，並在銀幕上展露頭角。
