Master’s Biography

Master wang

I am 60 years old now and have been learning and practicing Martial arts for more than 50 years. Chinese Kungfu is so broad, deep and profound that it would take more than an entire lifetime to master every aspect of it. There is no end to learning in Kungfu. When I was 8 years old, my father began teaching me the internal Kungfu that had been handed down from my ancestors.When I was a little older, I travelled to Cangzhou in Hebei province, where I was trained by my master Zhang shifu and began my intense Kungfu training including Link arms, Baji quan,Taichi and Eagle Fist.
I was taught by the Shaolin temple abbot Dechan in 1971.
Then, in 1981, I was taught Xingyi Fist and Bagua Palm from the master Li yu lan in Xuzhou, Jiangsu province. In 1989, I spent several years learning Dacheng Boxing from the grandmaster Wang xuan jie. I also spent more than 10 years learning the Iron Palm handed down by my ancestors. In 1993, I went to Chenjiagou for training in Chen Style Taichi Form from the authentic Chen style master Chen zheng lei. At the same time, I was given some advice by the grandmaster Zhu tian cai.   
I have been learning Martial arts for nearly 50 years and have traveled through great mountains and beautiful rivers during my training. I have followed a dozen famous masters to learn Kungfu, Inner strength and Fist styles.  I have never lost and have defeated many famous masters during my lifetime.
I still train in hand to hand combat with lots of my martial arts friends and we research and study the essence of Kungfu.
