Biography
(page 2)
Philip worked hard to complete his education. He always remembered
what his father had told him, that no matter how bad you think you
have it, you could overcome any obstacle if you set your mind to it—and
he did just that. He spent every weekday studying the course material
under the Certified Management Accountant Program and on the weekends
worked tirelessly in a restaurant. He also persevered at learning English
in order to overcome the language barrier.
After
becoming a Certified Management Accountant, he found employment in
the accounting department of a large retail chain head office and has
been working there ever since.
Shortly after his arrival to Ottawa, he realized that people were interested in learning Kung Fu. As a result, he began teaching it to his friends—this marked the beginning of his teaching career in Canada. Later, he also began providing Kung Fu and Chinese language classes at the Ottawa Chinese Language School.
Over time, Philip became more interested in being able to activate one’s self-healing abilities. Consequently, he began to learn more about medical Qi Gong. He studied under several great Qi Gong Masters, such as Master Yan Xin, Binhui He, Effie Chow, Sikung Lowe and Zhi Xiong Gao. He attained the level of Qi Gong Master from Grandmaster Sikung Lowe in 2002. In 2001, Philip founded the National LAMAS Qi Gong Association of Canada which promotes the use of Qi Gong by offering classes and workshops as well as providing training to those wishing to become instructors.

Practicing Qi Gong several times a day for many years has helped Philip reduce, if not alleviate entirely, the daily stresses of life. In addition, it has virtually eliminated his health problems. With focus and meditation, he is able to disconnect from pain—he does not need freezing while having fillings repaired at the dentist. He practices what he knows daily and also believes that he should continue to learn more. There is always room for improvement and life is about learning. He dedicates a minimum of half a day per week to study and research new material concerning the different kinds of Qi Gong and traditional Chinese medicine.
Philip is very committed and dedicated to sharing his knowledge with
people in his community that are interested in learning it. With over
30 years of experience and knowledge in traditional Chinese medicine
and self-healing techniques as well as in practicing and instructing
Kung Fu and Qi Gong, he has a lot to offer. It is his ongoing
quest to teach what he knows of self-healing to benefit his community.
He is a compassionate individual with sound
virtues who constantly tries to appreciate the people that surround
him by setting himself in their situation. He will never
judge and is always accommodating to special needs, whatever they may
be.
