Title: Honoring the Legacy of BP Chan

Subtitle: Celebrating a Life of Martial Arts and Qigong

The students of Martial Arts Teacher and Qigong Master BP Chan share their memories, reminiscences, and anecdotes about their training with him.

There have been no books written about BP Chan - until now.

He did not do interviews. He wrote no books or magazine articles. He disliked having photographs or videos taken of him.

BP Chan taught martial arts for four decades in the United States and Europe. In his lifetime, Mr. Chan taught hundreds of students (One student, Ken Cohen, puts the number over one thousand). He taught at the schools of William CC Chen, CK Chu, Richard Chin's Asian Martial Arts Studio, and others. He did workshops in Connecticut, New York State, and New Jersey. He created space for, and taught, martial arts workshops and study at Master Jou Tsung Hwa's Tai Chi Farm in Warwick, NY.

How is it that this man's encyclopedic body of knowledge and training has hardly been noticed in the United States ?

Although BP Chan passed away 21 years ago, he is still revered by his students. Many say he was like a father to them; some will not even talk about him to "outsiders", even today, because they feel that their relationship with him was so personally endearing and special. This book opens that door of guarded silence around Mr. Chan just a crack so you can understand what a treasure of a human being and martial arts teacher he really was - to those who knew him.
