Edward began studying Yang Sau Chung's Tai Chi in 1980 under Master Chu Ginsoon. This was in the initial growth phase of Master Chu's Boston school when he was the first to introduce Yang Sau Chung's teaching in the West. Whereas students who came after him eventually went on to become prominent instructors, Edward's pure love for the art brought him unique insights into how to tap into Yang Tai Chi's creative source.
