Master Chen studied insatiably and continuously improved both his Qigong and himself.
He played a myriad of classical Chinese wind and string musical instruments and he was also a great chef.
Master Chen Wei Gun was a quite, modest man to whom integrity and honor were more important than notoriety, power and money.
His art and his life inspired all who were fortunate enough to know him. His spirit truly reflected Taijiquan's principles of Wu Wei,
Harmony and Balance.
He remained calm and peaceful even throughout the last 2 months of his life, which he spent on his deathbed knowing he would never leave
it alive.
He was truly a Master of Qigong.
Very Sincerely Yours,
Gary Giamboi, Shifu
