Accolades and acclaim continued to follow, including his induction into the World Martial Arts Black Belt Hall of Fame in 2006; named International Instructor of the Year in 2006, and this years honor -- his recognition as Master of the Year by the World Martial Arts Black Belt Hall of Fame.

In 1996, Sifu began a relationship with the Olympics, which continues to this day. From 1996 to 1999, he coached Patrick Bouchard, an Olympic Canadian Team member in speed skating. Sifu, along with four other select individuals from around the globe, were brought to Beijing to chair and choreograph the opening ceremonies for the 2008 Olympics.

Spanning the map, his event schedule includes one-day seminars on “How to Get Your Chi On,” “Golfing with Chi,” and “The 5 Elements of a Perfect 8 -- The Power of Chi;” a three-day meditative and contemplative retreat to be held in the Mohave Desert in California.

Created for anyone who wants to feel empowered, Sifu shows viewers how to use heels, shoes, belts, watches, rings and other items of clothing for self-defense.
