Bruce Lee was a Kung Fu master and specifically of the style Win Chun. He learned many martial arts styles and eventually created his own style known as Jeet Kune Do. For more on Bruce Lee try this website. http://www.geocities.com/Colosseum/Track/5996/bio.html

Bruce Lee Started by mastering Chinese Gungfu, with a dream of setting up chains of schools across the US. He made some enemies with this goal. By the time he developed Jeet Kune Do, however, he had given up on the idea, because he felt it was impossible to truly master an art when taught as part of a large group. While incapacitated due to his back injury, he turned to his studies, during which time he wrote the bulk of his book, "Tao of Jeet Kune Do", in which he explains his realization that practicing any style entails limiting one's progress.

He started out with wing chun gung-fu (I think he won a chinese boxing championship in High School). Later, when he was developing his own martial art (Jeet Kune Do or 'The way of the intercepting fist') he reviewed almost every martial art under the sun, not only eastern styles (aikido, judo, etc.) but western styles as well (western boxing, greco-roman wrestling, and fencing). He did not believe anyone should limit themself to one style, but study as many as you can, keeping techniques that are useful and discarding the rest.

Bruce Lee studied several forms of Martial Arts, the most noted of which was probably his study of Wing Chun Kung Fu, though he also studied Boxing and Fencing and even won a ChaCha championship when he was 18. Eventually Bruce Lee would become more noted for his use of his own fighting technique which was heavily influenced by the arts I mentioned above (excluding ChaCha), which (as alot of people know) was Jeet Kun Do, or "the way of the intercepting fist". What I know of JKD and Bruce Lee I found online at: http://www.leejkd.com/main.html http://www.brucelee.com/jeet.htm And a few other random sites. From what I have read the information on JKD and Bruce Lee seems to be diverse and contradict each other. I think the best way to find out about him and his techniques is to read his books and watch his interviews. At this point it seems to me (from wat I have read and seen) that the only people who really know what JKD was/is all about is Chuck Noris, Kareem Abdul Jabbar and some of the other people he taught. I am just starting to read 'The Tao of Jeet Kun Do' and do not claim to know everything about Bruce Lee, Jeet Kun Do, or any other Form.

Lee Jun Fan (Bruce Lee) dabbled in every martial art he could find a trained person willing to share some time with. His primary martial arts studies were in Tai Chi and Wing Chun. He began to blend them both early on, and added aspects from many other martial arts as he gradually created his own art, which he called "Jun Fan Jeet Kune Do".

You're all right. Bruce was just a tough Chinese kid on the streets of Hong Kong before he leared any martial arts. He was part of a gang and got in several street fights and other altercations. His father was part of the Cantonese opera and knew Tai Chi Chuan, and decided to teach Lee is, but Bruce never took the art seriously for several reasons(I don't blame him), and wanted to learn martial arts back then so that he could fight. When he got beat up badly at the age of 13, he was referred to Yip Man, the head of the Wing Chun school, and so he learned from Yip Man, but primarily learned from William Cheung. So he had elements of Tai Chi and 5 years of Wing Chun under his belt. And then studied elements of other Kung fu styles, and did Jeet Kune(quick fist), along with Red Wing chun and even became a black belt in Judo. He also studied Western Boxing, Fencing(footwork primaily), and well...everything else 0.0 Soon, he blended all this into Jeet Kune Do, the way of the stopping/intercepting fist, a combination of the Taoist, and Shaolin teachings on one side, to the Western boxing styles of Joe Louis and Muhammad Ali on the other side. But his base for JKD was still Wing Chun, even when practicing Nunchaku, he still remained in his upright Wing Chun posture. And his punches also came from the center like from Wing Chun too, but of course, the man was not limited, that's for sure!! ^.^;

Bruce Lee's style was unorthodox.To be frank,bruce had no style since he never believed in styles.According to him,style limits one's potential and makes you mechanical,more like a robot.this led him to invent his own way of fighting called Jeet Kun Do.
