Length-1 hour, 3 minutes, 2 seconds
Dr. Kevin L. Keough, clinical psychologist and host of Warrior Traditions and North Star Guardians, interviews Dr. Yang Jwing-Ming about his final mission: to transmit his complete knowledge to the next generation of teachers and preserve the Chinese martial and healing arts.
Dr. Yang Jwing-Ming
Dr. Yang Jwing- Ming was born in Taiwan in 1946. He has studied Wu Su since the age of fifteen under different instructors, most notably Cheng Gin-Gsao, White Crane, Pai Huo Kao (Tao Tai Chi Chuan, Yang’s division) and Li Mao-Ching (Long Fist). His academic career is well rounded as well, as he received a M.S. degree in Physics from the National Taiwan University in 1971 and a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from Purdue University in 1978.
He started working for Texas Instruments in Houston in 1980, founded the Yang’s Martial Art Academy in Boston in 1982, then left TI in 1984 to devote all his time to the YMAA, which has since expanded into the Yang’s Oriental Arts Association, Inc. He has published a large amount of material, most of which under Unique Publications and his own YMAA Publication Center.
