I honestly don't know. I've been a fan of hers since Jackie Chan days and of course Crouching Tiger. However I don't see the connection between Star Trek and a martial artist. Seems to be another attempt to pump a lot of action and violence into a series that at it's core isn't about that.

Honestly, people say that Star Trek isn't built on violence however more people were killed on TOS than most shows of it's day.

Oh I know what you mean, having just watched a complete viewing of TOS. I guess my point is based on Roddenberry's vision which isn't influenced by the network. Probably the best representation is TMP or the early TNG episodes.

Since this is Section-31, wouldn't surprise me if it were violent, after all this is the same Section-31 that was willing to go full genocide to end the Dominion War.
Speaking of Which I have noticed that Section-31 of Enterprise is more Tame compared to Section-31 of DS9, would be neat if the Mirror Georgiou had a hand in its shift in how it "Operates."

Which brings up another funny thing if you think about it.
Roddenberry's movie was TMP....it almost killed the franchise before it started again.
TWOK saved Star Trek...Roddenberry hated it and had his power limited by the studio.
TNG's first 2 season were very meh....Roddenberry
TNG from season 3 on were very good....not Roddenberry
See a pattern here?
People talk about the "Roddenberry Vision" but the Roddenberry way doesn't seem to work as well as people think it does.

Yeah, Roddenberry seems to be the case where he's better controlled then left to his own devices.

I agree to a certain point. What's good for television and movies isn't necessarily the same as what's good for society as a whole.
I really like TMP because it is the most realistic movie that has ever been made regarding Star Trek. Various plotlines about promotions and demotions, the refit, fixing the problems with Enterprise and warp drive, and teleportation. Also the most realistic in the sense that encounting an alien would be akin to encountering God. All things that are sacrificed later for the sake of action, and butts in seats.

If it's about Section 31 - I'm actually open as to how they pave it. There is no order of precedence really set in stone by previous series to be maintained. They get to build its origins, which is fine.

Same, watched a lot of old and newer HK movies and generally enjoyed watching those with Michelle Yeoh too, so was interested to see how it would work out in DSC, which in a way is so different than most things she's done before. I don't think though there's anything wrong with a martial artists in ST, Klingons are known for their own martial arts too like Mok'bara, etc. According to Memory Alpha, Mok'bara shares some forms with Human's Taijiquan (Tai Chi Chuan), which based on its origins stories is a Wudang style martial arts, see Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. Though that said technically Michelle is not a trained martial artist, but a dancer (according to IMDB), something that is fairly common for HK actors (not sure about contemporary ones, old days was more common.)
Also, Chinese martial arts generally integrates (or is an extension of, depending how one views it I guess) Buddhism, for external Shaolin-style martial arts, and Taoism, for internal Wudang style martial arts. Actors, or the character they play, could be influenced in their general work/life outlook by these philosophies. Might be interesting. (On the other hand I might also be writing all tosh, and actors do what they are asked to do for £€$)
