Dan Met his teacher  Chen Tin Hung in 1975.  Like his master he established his reputation by winning a major fighting contest in Malaysia in 1980. After 8 years of intensive training and travelling Dan gave up his job in The Hong Kong Police Force  and returned to London where he established his Tai Chi Chuan teaching base.

As an author he wrote with insight and conviction on the practical, historical and philosophical aspects of Tai Chi Chuan

Dan ‘s open style of teaching  led his students to high levels of personal achievement
