Lucy and Ken welcome Professor Li Deyin to Hawaii for a two day workshop on Yang style tai chi at Kilauea District Park.
Professor Li Deyin stands with Dr. Lipyeow Lim.
They were a perfect team in presenting in Mandarin and then translating in English for an appreciative audience.
Welcome to the first of a 2 part workshop, FIRST ever to be held in Hawaii…
We are gathered here to meet, INTERACT and SOAK IN THE WISDOM of an internationally recognized authority of tai chi from China.
We undertook the arrangement of this program to take advantage of a rare opportunity.
The planning and organizing of this unique and exciting program was made possible through the hard work and co- ordination efforts of my colleagues: Sallie Lee who endlessly devotes her time and energy co-ordinating activities in our tai chi community... Dr. Lockwood Young who through his contacts in China made it possible to co-ordinate Prof. Li’s vacation in Hawaii with an opportunity to meet and address our tai chi community…UH Manoa Prof. Dr. Lipyeow Lim, with his background in tai chi, has graciously volunteered to translate for us.
Last, but not least my husband, Ken on camera with our grandson, Brennan. We are volunteer producers for Olelo community media.
TODAY, we are privileged and honored to have with us GRAND MASTER LI DEYIN and his wife, Master Fang Mishou.
PROF. LI is one of China’s martial arts treasures in tai chi. In addition to being a distinguished judge throughout his career, he is a MASTER TRAINER of the first generation of Wu Shu judges of the WORLD!
He is the ORIGINATOR of Yang 42 and 48 step tai chi. He is also the highest authority on 24 step simplified Yang style, 88 Step Traditional Yang Style, Wudang Taiji Sword and the 32 step.
He also created the Kung Fu Fan routine with his daughter and his wife, Master Fang Mishou.
Prof Li has authored books, created DVDs and continues to promote, standardize and modernize tai chi according to traditional principles.
We are indeed PRIVILEGED and HONORED to have this opportunity for Prof. Li to speak and instruct us today and impart his wisdom, knowledge and experience to help us improve our tai chi.
