After many injuries and the stressors of life which included Dan's mom become more ill with Emphysema and the politics involved with leaving his prior Martial Arts School, Dan searched out teachers of the Internal Martial Arts with the intention on learning a new approach to his training that would allow him to reduce the frequency of injuries as well as learning meditation methods to deal with life stressors. Dan searched Ny Chinatowns and trained with a few so- called Masters before meeting Master Li Tailiang. Dan began training with Master li in Taiji and later shifted his focus back into combat by learning the Arts of Xingyi and Bagua. After a few years of intense private training, Dan was accepted as a formal Indoor (Tudi) Disciple of Master Li. Dan went on to become one of Master Li's most proficient students and is a FULL INSTRUCTOR in Master Li's System. Dan continues his training with Master Li today.
