Master Wang Ming Bo?
Master Wang practiced Chinese wrestling and boxing, and began training in Taijiq uan in 1993,?
after ?an industrial accident ?left him bedridden with ?both ankles broken. His doctors said ?he?
would probably not walk again. However, he began to walk on crutches to his local park, and met?
and became a student of Wu ?Style Taiji Master Wang Haoda, who was in his late 60’s. ?Since then?
he has also studied Chen ?and Yang Style s with Master Tao Chengqiang. Since the passing of his?
teacher in 2002, Master Wang has focused exclusively on Yang Style Taiji with Grandmaster?
Don g Bin and his disciple Master Ren Gang. Master Wang is a generous and patient teacher,?
with a warm and friendly nature and an extensive knowledge of Taiji, Tuina, Chinese Medicine?
and other related arts. ?
