Learn How to Celebrate Chinese New Year with Good Health and a Special Shaolin Tai Chi Gentle Fist Demonstration by Master Dao

Chinese New Year is an important time for Chinese people. We get together and celebrate with family and friends, and wish each other health and happiness.

But what are people actually doing about their health?

In this video, Master Dao offers some insights into what health means in the hopes that people will become more aware of their health goals now and in the long run.

He then does a demonstration of a rare ancient Shaolin form called Shaolin Gentle Fist. It's the basis for the Shaolin Tai Chi classes we offer at our schools in-person or online.
