Originally from Henan in China, Master Zhang was introduced to the martial arts at an early age. He followed the teachings of several masters from the Shaolin and Wudang schools. He worked with each of them in a very traditional way.
Unlike modern teaching as we know it today, this was an apprenticeship in a privileged relationship with a Master who was part of a family lineage and relationship. He thus deepened his training with Master Wang Qing Sheng (Zhaobao style Taiji Quan) and Master Wang Xian (Chen style Taiji Quan).
He holds numerous diplomas and titles won in his native land, and was several times champion in various Wushu and Tuishou disciplines.
Master Zhang began teaching as an official instructor of young boarders at the famous Taoist monastery in the Wudang mountains. His apprenticeship illustrates his attachment to the traditional forms of Taiji Quan.
On the strength of this experience, Master Zhang then embarked on a new adventure which took him to Paris. Here, he has trained numerous students, notably in traditional Zhaobao Taiji Quan, of which he is the only heir master in France. He also teaches batons, swords and Little Monk Boxing. As a coach, he led a French team to the first international Wushu competitions in Zhengzhou (Henan, China) in 2004, which came first and won several medals.
