Meaning Behind Jackie Chan & Bruce Lee's Chinese Names

As a tradition, Chinese Kung Fu stars have their own stage names. It's the same case for both Jackie Chan and Bruce Lee. People seldom remember their real names since the stage names are so popular.

Stage Name for Jackie Chan was Cheng Long, literally translated as"Become the Dragon".

Bruce Lee's stage name was Xiao Long, meaning "Little Dragon". Somehow similar?

The Dragon - Mystical creature in Chinese folklore & Mythology, the Chinese dragons traditionally symbolize potent and auspicious powers, particularly control over water, rainfall, hurricane, and floods. The dragon is a symbol of power, strength, and good luck.

So typically you will see Chinese Family plans to give birth on the year of the dragon..........an army of babies...

I am the Warrior of the dragon!

Happy Chinese New Year 2012 everyone!

Aikido Master - Little girl

It appears baby Bruce Lee have a new rival to contend with. Introducing Cute little Aikido Master!

From my understanding in Aikido, those who wears the Hakama (the long skirt looking uniform) is actually at a pretty high level, probably the equivalent of a blackbelt in karate.

Aikido practitioners should be able to verify to see if the adult isn't just allowing her to throw him around. Look closely you can see her footing and energy actually drives the adult to the floor. (non-believers gonna hate)

But it doesn't really matter because at the end of it she look so adorably cute when she was being fling around by the adult at the second half of the video.

*warning*
'not recommended for untrained people to throw their siblings/daughters around without the propertraining'
