The Female Bruce Lee

As one of the greatest female martial artists of all time, Angela Mao was a skilled fighter who trained in hapkido and other martial arts from a very young age. Hapkido was a form of self-defense that incorporated hand-to-hand combat but also traditional weaponry like knives, swords, and nunchucks. Mao’s incredible martial arts skills were seen in Kung Fu movies throughout the 1970s, which led to her reputation as “Lady Kung Fu” and even often being referred to as the female equivalent to Bruce Lee.
