The movie “Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon” has did much to attracted students of martial Arts to travel from all over the world to study with the masters at Wudang. More and more Westerners are studying Zhongwen (Mandarin), Taoism and of course, Wudang Martial Arts.
The Hall of Yuzhen is the cradle of Wudang Kung Fu. In 1417, Emperor Zhudi decreed Wudang to be the "Grand Mountain" and ordered the construction of the Hall of Yuzhen for Master Zhang Sanfeng.
Wudang Kung Fu has the characteristics of taking emptiness as source and stake as root,moving like a snake and standing like a hillock.wudang kung fu integrates main and collateral channels science of tranditional Chinese medicine,and focuses on internal kung fu practice. It pays attention to TUNA and DaoYin(chinese tranditional body-building exercise which combines breathing control, body and limb movements, concentration of mind,etc.) in order to improve the metabolism,regulating Yin and Yang, adjusting main and collateral channels and reach the purpose of natural healing, inteliligence enhancement and life span.
You Xuande, is the Grand Master of the Wudang Sanfeng Sect, and has an acclaimed reputation in Taoism and Wudang Kung Fu in his homeland of China, throughout Asia, and abroad. He is a president of wudang TaiChi Chuan Federation,and he is a 14 Generation Descendant of wudang Sect
As he has become more well known in the West, many people have traveled to Wudang and visit him, mostly in vain as he is often teaching or elsewhere. This is why he has a reclusive reputation and some individuals even think of him as an immortal. It is not hard to see why when you observe Master You’s youthful appearance and unwrinkled features.
