Our Story

Founded by a passionate practitioner who has walked the path of Wushu and Qigong since childhood, The Li Rong Wushu and Qigong Academy arose from a desire to share the profound impacts of these ancient arts with the vibrant community of Vancouver. As a child in China, I would watch my grandfather, a revered teacher, practice daily, channeling both strength and serenity. His teachings were not merely about martial prowess; they were about embedding tranquility and resilience into daily life. When I relocated to Vancouver, I noticed a yearning in many for a deeper connection to themselves and their surroundings. This inspired me to build a sanctuary where students could explore Tai Chi not just as a form of exercise, but as a holistic practice deeply intertwined with their lives. Every class reflects my grandfather’s emphasis on community, mindfulness, and personal growth. It’s not just my story I wish to share; it’s the stories of each student that weave the fabric of our academy.
