My wife and I first met Greg at Eric the trainer’s gym.
The first thing that Eric said to me was that Greg was an amazing person and martial artist.
Being a martial arts instructor myself for over 45 years, my wife and I both run our own martial arts school.
We noticed immediately his love for martial arts and his sense of humor and his ability to teach advanced techniques in an easy to follow (online) lessons.
I’ve been learning and teaching basic Wing Chun for years and he has helped us to take it all to a new level.
We started classes with him
And his Wing Chun class is nothing, like I’ve ever seen using Qi Gong along with Wing Chun at an advanced level, has helped us and our students take the next level.
Greg is a great person, teacher, and healer and is always happy to share his knowledge with everyone.
David L Reed

Sifu Greg Yau demonstrates what was lost in years of martial arts training in different styles all over the world. He reminds me of what I’ve been learning for years…NLP combined with visualization, focus, breathing, Chakra alignment, and Nikolai Tesla’s key to the universe. I am so thankful for the demonstrations of his visionary way of combining the 9 systems (from bone marrow, respiratory system, chakra system, endocrine system, dermatome system, cranial system, ren and du meridian circuit, brain stem, and sacred geometry) that works using Wing Chun and Qigong. If bio-hacking is now an existing word, his system definitely hacked the body to be strong in such a short period of time.

Lady L. Reed

“I have known Greg Yau for almost 40 years since he started teaching me Wing Chun. He trained me for about 3 years and then life got in the way and I stopped training. Greg on the other hand never stopped training to teach and taking every opportunity to perfect his art. Now that I am being trained again by Greg, I see his unbelievable growth and incredible knowledge of not just Wing Chun and Qi Gong but also health and well-being. Greg doesn’t try and give you a little of his knowledge and skill, he teaches you as much as you can handle and more without holding back.

My health, strength, and agility have all increased and I’m sure his teachings will add years to my life. I highly recommend you try Greg’s training if you are looking to be healthier, stronger, and feel better.”

Jim Trapani

“Although I’m not a martial artist, I find Greg’s “Yau Qi Gong” invaluable for anyone, regardless of age, who wants to take charge of their own health, improve energy, prevent disease and experience their potential & true purpose in life. The classes are intensive and disciplined, yet presented in a fun, upbeat approach encouraging one to be at their best.

Some specific benefits have included:

  1. Simple, three step technique which has enabled me to fall asleep quickly, after long standing sleep issues.
  2. An application of a martial arts technique which has repeatedly de-escalated conflict ( before it gets out of hand) in daily activities, including the workplace and delete fears, even in dreams.
  3. Breathing techniques to increase oxygenation, which has been a major problem for me during COVID, especially since I have been obligated at work to wear masks for the last two years.
  4. Joint pain is lessened, especially in the knees, since I must walk several miles daily.
  5. Reduced weight easily.

Greg’s method communicates” Informational Qi” to the body, so that we can begin to recognize where our physical weaknesses are located and then take steps to improve.

In general, I’ve experienced a greater appreciation and daily life application of the synergy Yau Qi Gong has created. It integrates ancient Shaolin techniques & philosophy, Wing Chun, acupuncture, as well as quantum physics.

Yau Chi Gung reconnects us to the inherent power of the physical body, so we can re-integrate body, mind and spirit and re-connect to the universal energy surrounding us.

In doing so, Greg has delivered a remarkable, universal model for the 21st century. What he does makes the world a better place! It’s an honor to know him.”

Heidi Wagner

“Greg appeared in my life in the mid-00s, he was at a party I was having and he was the most serene person in the room. I introduced myself and he said, “I teach kung-fu where all my students meet their destiny.” I signed up on the spot and have been a faithful student ever since. When I was a kid, I used to wish that I could find a master like in those 70s Shaw Bros movies, the ones with the long eyebrows who could teach me acupuncture, herbs, and secret kung-fu techniques. Greg didn’t have long eyebrows but he checked all the other boxes. My wish came true! Since working with Greg I have come to understand that he teaches the most modern sort of kung-fu available. Today, people are rarely suffering from violence. While some people might live in bad areas and be more prone to it, most of us no longer need to live in fear of violence because violent crimes have been on a steady decline for the last 50 years. Now we need strong bodies that can handle stress, have good immune systems, and be able to be strong enough to handle accidents.

In the 15+ years of working with Greg, I haven’t gotten into fights, but I’ve had plenty of times where a fall or other kind of accident would have produced a much more serious injury and all I had was maybe a small black and blue. My body has become stronger and my mind more patient thanks to working with Greg and I think that is more important in our modern times than learning how to fight, which also comes with Greg’s work, but doesn’t seem to be as much of the focus as grounding and strengthening the body. Just spend a few minutes with him and you’ll know he has the good stuff. He can teach the legendary things most people don’t even realize exist, like muscle-tendon change and marrow-cleansing bone-strengthening.”

Stephen Hoffmann

“I first met Greg Yau in 1994 when I attended a lecture by Wing Pon.  Wing was starting some classes and Greg was going to do the physical part.  A combination of yoga, chi gong, energy work and systems work.  I continued to take classes form Greg over the years because he is always evolving and teaching new things.  I became an early member of SHSD (Shaolin School of Health and Self Defense.)  He has excellent teaching methods and he is always upbeat.

In October of 2004 I was diagnosed with Stage 4 Pancreatic cancer.  Greg has supported me with herbs and acupuncture and wisdom.  When I was unable to leave the house he would come to our home and give me acupuncture.  He is part of the reason I am still alive.  I give the chemo a little credit but it almost wiped out all my blood cells and platelets.

In my continuing battle with the cancer I can count on Greg’s spiritual and actual healing process.  I have full faith in his remarkable ability.”

Sally Webb

“I hold Greg Yau in highest esteem.  Here is why.  In March of 1995 I was stricken with tinnitus. In my case a very loud ringing in the ears.  Something akin to a boiling, whistling teakettle.  I was devastated.  Western medicine availed me nothing.  Migraines followed.  I had never had one before.  Wow!  MRIs and pills followed with no effect.  Depression set in.  I couldn’t read a newspaper or sleep more than three or four hours at night.  I took early retirement from my teaching position.  I was 58 years old.  Thoughts of suicide crept ever closer.

My very concerned wife suggested I try her diagnostic herbalist muse Wing Pon.  Wing tested me on his computer and strongly recommended acupuncture – enter Greg Yau.  It was July 1996.  Acupuncture followed on a twice a week basis for several months.  The ringing subsided but did not disappear.  I could read again and sleep for more than four hours at a time.  Soon acupuncture was down to once a week.  I got to know Greg pretty well.  Greg suggested that my wife and I enroll in his physical /spiritual class.  We did and so remained for seven years.

I continue to practice what Greg preaches and my tinnitus has greatly diminished and I have not had a migraine in four years.  My wife has been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer.  Greg has made acupuncture house calls that have helped to energize and alleviate her discomfort from the chemo.

Greg is a terrific person and a genuine healer.  I trust him implicitly and hope you do as well.”

Lloyd K. Webb

“I practice Tai Chi.  The Holy Grail (to use a western metaphor) of any Asian health or martial arts system is to tap into powers, strengths and abilities that are greater than those we can muster through our ordinary physical efforts.  In meditation systems these are called the siddhis.

While my all my previous teachers could teach me the forms and movements of tai chi or another movement art (and I thank them for it), they would at some point invariably test us. They would ask the class to stop, then would push us and occasionally, only occasionally,  we would be rock solid, immovable and wondrously strong.  The teacher would grunt approval—but usually the teacher would push us over, shake their head and go on to the next student. Perhaps the form had to be done just so to get this effect, but it was damned difficult for any teacher to say how so to get this effect.   Nobody could say how to get the strong effect other than practice for more years.  Nobody knew in a way they could explain. Nobody, no teacher, no master nor discussion with any colleague student, not any book or video I have encountered in 30 years of this pursuit including a philosophy degree at UC Berkeley and the bookstores or internet could show the student how to be instantly or consistently in that goal (or Grail) state of union with greater power.   No one, until I met Greg Yau.   

The masters of martial arts are unquestionably in touch with power in (or through) their bodies that leaves no doubt in our minds that something very special is happening here.  The movies from the East (go ahead, name some) are filled with a mythological lore of tremendous abilities…lost to society now except for a few who have managed to find the way (as the Tao is called).  But how to teach it!……A monumental and monstrously difficult task.  It is extremely rare to find a master with the insights and abilities alone.  Farther and fewer is someone with the advanced verbal and artistic abilities to transmit the understanding and the experience of power that we in the west know very well as Kung-Fu.   For this reason it is a great pleasure and honor to be able to attend a monthly 3-hour seminar with Greg Yau.

Greg doesn’t teach me Tai Chi.  He teaches the energy principles that underlay any movement, be it golf, tennis, tai chi, basketball, Kung Fu, reiki healing or massage, you name it, he can improve in a verifiable manner to a greater effectiveness of that movement/system…and he can show you how to experience it.  This is phenomenally rare.  The only other place I have encountered this was when Tony Robbins used NLP to improve the shooting scores at the Army’s pistol range despite the fact that the Army has been teaching pistol for many, many years.  

Let me be practical for a minute, because after all, this is California and the woo woo is everywhere.  Let me take you back to a university class that I attended in the early 70’s when John Searle, a philosophy professor at U.C. Berkeley announced at the start of his class that the goal for his career as a professor of philosophy and indeed the major goal for all of the social sciences was in fact to explore and ultimately create a technology of and for the social sciences. The physical sciences are the undisputable model for the meaning of the word technology.  Physics has created a technology of materials that has transformed (and endangered) the world in ways that I don’t even need to mention to you, because you know. But as for the social science and humanities—-they are still struggling for a technology, an applied and visible way to express and extend into the world the powers and technology for a better human and society. Oh there has been a few:  B.F. Skinner’s conditioned response; Neuro-lingustic-progamming; Freud and psycho-analysis; but by and large the abilities that we as human suspect we can attain have escaped our societal and personal grasp.  Is there a hunger for this type of applied social-technology?  Just look at the number of people engaged in religion as an indication of the demand people have for an improvement in human abilities, capabilities and condition. Mr. Yau understands the symbols and energies of many of these groups in an unique and powerful way that delivers us to the technological heart of the practice.

Let me continue to be pragmatic. Why is Greg Yau living off his home equity loan and doing this energy Research and Development for the last 10 years?  Why is he compelled to be a Chi-Gung designer, giving landscape contractors from Marin energy lessons when his mom (and probably his wife) expected him to be a doctor? I think it is important to understand that Mr. Yau has had access to world class family style Kung Fu here in California.  Through the network of his extended Chinese family and Kung Fu masters associated with his remarkable uncles, especially Grandmaster Chris Chan, Greg has come to deeply know a cultural specialty accessible to very few people.  This authentic access to information and culture coupled with a astounding—but reproducible, talent is why he is at the ability level we see.

But how to present Mr. Yau’s very different approach to this Kung Fu knowledge to the world and not seem to compete with the family? —How does he continue to honor his uncle, -certainly not by starting another style or Kung Fu school. Being in this family network that has extensive access to varied and bona fide Kung Fu means that Greg Yau’s information must by honor have high standard of practicality and effectiveness…at least strong enough to withstand the competition of the Wing Chun system of Yip Man and Chris Chan and improve it to boot. But the young nephew must find another way to present his systemized view of this information to the world, and that way is the way of business. And it is for business that he comes to you, to me and enriches us in the transaction.

In reference then, let me say that G.K. Yau can deliver the extremely subtle experience of outside power coming through your body in a way that you can take note of, while you will also notice being in an extreme state of normality and health. Ask him to show you.

Like Ray Charles, Mr. Yau. I believe, has the potential to cross over from what was a purely ethnic cultural system to all sections of society. True power is when we are at a remarkably restful and 
loving place. The question is the road to get to that market place.”

Sal LeVassar – Landscape Architect

“Greg Yau’s Chi Gong system is simple and fast. It cuts through all the red tape and let’s you experience true energy in one breathe. Why train improperly for years and never achieve any results! This is state of the art training!”

Steve Engstrom – Certified Fitness Trainer
“My name is Shaun Kook. I am Co-founder of SELJE Coaching and Training, located just north of San Francisco, California. We specialize in helping small business owners overcome anxiety and embody their potential.

I choose to work with Greg Yau because I needed a Chi Gung Master who owned a deep understanding of how our minds and bodies worked together. More specifically, how our mind and body work together when damage has occurred due to injury.

As an Airborne Ranger in the US Army’s 75TH Ranger Regiment I sustained injuries significant enough to honor a medical release from the US Army. I sustained injuries to C3/4, C6 and C8. The brain surgeon ordered me to discontinue all Ranger and Jump Master Duties and he told me that I would never study the Martial Arts again. In the short time that I have had the distinct privilege of studying with Greg I have felt a significant increase in energy and flexibility. It’s as if my mind and body have been awakened from a long sleep.  

Thanks to Greg, not only have I learned a great number of techniques which work wonderful on evaporating anxiety for my clients, I am happily and healthfully practicing Wing Chun Gung Fuwith Greg and one of his students, Sifu (Chinese for teacher) Bert Rodriguez.

I am truly grateful to Greg Yau. If it weren’t for the depth of his knowledge and the wisdom he has instilled in Sifu Bert Rodriguez I would still be dreaming about the Martial Arts not living the life of a Martial Arts Practitioner.”
Shaun Kook – Motivational Coach – NLP Master Trainer

“I have worked with Greg Yau for over 14 years, and consider it time very well spent. Having been involved with the martial arts for over 40 years, I’ve had the privilege of training with some fine teachers. But it wasn’t until my association with Greg that I was able to reach the fullest understanding of all I had learned before. His genius is the ability to look at things in uncommon ways and see the connections between things that seemingly have no working relationship. Rather than the narrow field of expertise that so many people have, he has a unique understanding of the science that underlies all healing and fitness arts. It’s one thing to be accomplished in one art. It’s quite another to be able to observe someone doing something that you have no experience in, yet be able to make corrections and additions to it! That is a broad and profound understanding. And that is my experience with Greg. Combined with an infectious enthusiasm and great generosity in sharing his knowledge, I have to say that Greg is a teacher of the very highest order.

I offer these opinions from the modest experience that I have:
– Study of martial and fitness arts beginning in 1967, continuing through the present day. (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean)
– Teaching since 1982, continuing through the present day. (Special emphasis on Chi gung, Wing Chun, and Tai Chi)
– Main teachers:
   – Chris Chan
   – Robert Cook
   – Man Soo Chung
   – Last, but certainly not least, Greg Yau”

Eddie Katzman

“My name is John Ovalle, and I met Greg Yau since 2004. Undoubtedly, Greg has proven to be one of the most influential persons I have ever had the pleasure to meet. There is not a day that has gone by since I met Greg that I do not recall, utilize, or practice lessons I have learned from him to promote and maintain the balance and health of my mind and body.

I am active in men’s soccer, running, skiing, and biking amongst other activities, and am frequently getting dings and minor injuries. Through Greg’s teachings and techniques, particularly breathing lessons, I feel I am able to recover from my injuries with more strength than before it was injured.

As time has gone on, these lessons have also helped me prevent injuries through increased consciousness of body movement. Additionally, I am convinced these lessons have strengthened my immune system, as I feel as good as I have felt in my 36 years of life.”

John Ovalle

“At the time I first met Greg Yau over five years ago I had been practicing Martial Arts for almost 20 years.  I train in various forms of Tai Chi, Kung Fu and Chi Kung, inspired by an eclectic teacher who combined grace, power and harmony.

Greg’s workshop was described by an old friend as “…a different kind of Chi Kung”, and I welcomed the opportunity.  Meeting Gregis an encounter with a human dynamo – he is always smiling, enthusiastic and brimming with energy and information.  Over thecourse of severalmonths, the workshops evolved into small group monthly sessions exploring Greg’s system of what might possibly be called quantum energy dynamics.

Describing what Greg is doing as Chi Kung is simply the easiest way to begin.  Being a practitioner of martial arts, I am attuned tothe movement of my body and its currents of energy.  Having this foundation and sensitivity merely provides a common ground to start from.  Greg’s method is to go directly to the “end of martial arts” – a fluid grounded state that feels at once energized, serene, and surprise – normal!

It is Greg’s goal to transmit the information and techniques which will enable people to inhabit that state of mind and body at all times.  He draws his inspiration from everywhere, seeing the power and utility in ordinary objects as well as esoteric teachings.

His gift is the ability to synthesize and communicate this knowledge. He teaches directly to the body while engaging the mind in the wonders of the mysterious world we inhabit.  I feel fortunate to be a participant and my life has increased in vibrancy throughout this voyage of discovery.

To this day, I continue to work with Greg in collaboration and exploration of the healing power of movie mandalas – light transmission of mind energy.”

David Holland

“For the past year I have taken training in qi gong from Greg.  I have learned some astonishing information from Greg.  Greg has managed to integrate his lifelong studies and practices in qi gong with the latest elements of mind-being and intention into his teachings.  He has been able to “concentrate” the essence of various elements of his knowledge into symbols and transfer those symbols and learnings to his students in an almost “instantaneous” manner.  He has also been able to distill a lifetime of learnings from masters to simple principles which he is able to transfer to his students in a remarkable way through the use of the mind as well as the body.”

Jerry Gin – Nuvora – founder – President and CEO

“As a student of life the teacher shows up when you least expect him to and in the most unusual places.  I have seen a friends broken thumbs realign to full use within a few days.  My own arms were made impervious to pain or damage from masterful martial art strikes.  I also successfully escaped the grip of three adults in a demonstration of Aikido that I absorbed through a quantum physics information transfer application in seconds.  They did not believe it until I shared the process to them and they could see it themselves.  There are no limits to the applications Greg teaches.  It is only with time and experimentation that will unleash our true potentials. The scientific world is still trying to make a super computer as effective as 1 brain cell while Greg allows us within a few minutes of training to begin accessing and training our whole brain for full everyday use.”

Don Reid

“There’s an old Zen saying, “If you name it, you limit it.” It is so true – especially in the case of Greg Yau’s “system.”

I have been attending monthly workshops with Greg for more than 2 ½ years and I still don’t know what to call what we do.  But what I do know is that what I have learned and experienced as a result of his teaching is one of the most incredible and beneficial experiences of my life.  I feel so fortunate to have met Greg and so privileged to study with him.

I have been practicing Martial Arts for over 20 years.  Yet it is only after studying with Greg that I am beginning to experience the essence of what Martial Arts really is.  Now the chi flows!  Now, as the Classics say, “…the motion should be rooted in the feet, released through the legs, controlled by the waist, and manifested through the fingers.” Now, “…insubstantial and substantial are clearly differentiated.”  Before, these were just words.  Now they are experience.  I used to do Tai Chi, now – at least on occasion – I am Tai Chi.

Greg’s “system” is also beneficial for our health, our career and our spiritual well being.  By activating “accupoints” in the body the chi flows and naturally heals organs, bones tendons etc.  By instantly accessing the “alpha state” our mind becomes clear and opportunities that would otherwise appear hidden suddenly present themselves.  Our decision making process is objective and in tune with the natural flow.  By reconnecting with the Universe our intention becomes power and we can accomplish anything.  By opening our Heart, we can make the world a better place.

This information is learned instantaneously through cellular encoding.   I used to say this was “magic.”  Now, I say this is “science.”   

It’s where physics and metaphysics meet.”

Philip Zittell

“I have been studying with Greg for 2 years, initially traveling from Arizona to attend his monthly seminars and recently having moved to the Bay Area.  Who am I?  I’ve been a seeker all my life.  I have a brown belt in Judo and have been interested in martial arts for 25 years.  I have a master’s degree from Columbia University.  I work as a designer and businesswoman.  I’m encased in a very sensitive physical body with hyper mobility and pain issues.  Most significantly, I have been greatly honored and blessed to have been taught meditation, mysticism and self-discovery by several fine masters and I myself have been a meditation teacher.  Pure motivation is paramount to me.  With his unique gifts, Greg could easily become entranced by fame and fortune, but Greg feels that he has a responsibility to not only provide for his family but also the rest of humanity.

What is a seminar like?  A whirlwind, to say the least.  Time flies.  Greg is so full of new discoveries and new techniques he is fairly bursting with enthusiasm.  We are agog as we find ourselves, simply by holding a laminated piece of paper or a penny topped by a stick-on dot, able to withstand a push from Greg, when a moment before, minus the paper, a push rocked us backwards.  As class continues, Greg tests us before and after holding such objects with the same result.  Or sometimes we will do a sequence of movements, (nothing strenuous, one of the points of the training is to get strong without exercising) in a specific sequence; trying the same movements in a slightly altered sequence will simply not work.  The point of all of this is not reliance on power objects or lucky charms, nor a rigid routine but to educate ourselves at a cellular level so we will no longer need them.  Then we are advised by Greg to give them back to the universe by letting them go.  The whole time, Greg is beaming, sharing our awe, making gentle, humorous corrections, and spewing a seemingly inexhaustible amount of knowledge.  His childlike delight and vastness of information is remarkable.   

When I was studying Judo over a decade ago, I experienced random magical moments when seemingly out of time and body I effortlessly hurled my formidable sensei, more than twice my size, without any idea of how this had happened.  This is akin to what we’re cultivating with Greg.

This is a perfect system for busy people of all ages and physical conditions.  It has the potential to be a shortcut to the endorphins of exercise and the prowess of martial arts.

I do not yet intellectually understand Greg’s Matrix Chi system but it doesn’t seem to matter.  My body and my spirit recognize and respond to it.  I leave class without the pain and fatigue I often arrive with, in a state of heightened awareness and well-being.”

Joan Holland

“I was fortunate enough to meet Master Yau through the graces of a mutual friend. Master Yau has trained my mind and body like know one has before. He took me through three stages of Chi-Gung training.  In my first training session, I was able to experience a sensation like I never had experienced before.  I was able to release energy like nothing I could explain. All I know is that in one five-minute session I was able to do several easy to follow maneuvers and my whole body turned into what I can best describe as a Tesla Coil. I have continued with acupuncture and three more sessions to date. I feel like I did when I was a rookie officer, full of life and ready to truly tackle the world.

Most importantly for me, the training and acupuncture I have been following under Master Yau, is preparing me for the most difficult challenge in my life. More than two weeks ago I was terrified for my life. Right now I am ready and at peace with the near future surgery.  I am confident with Master Yau’s continued training; that I will be surprising many people including my surgeons and cardiologists. This training is not just training for the sake of learning something new; it is a lifestyle that will be a continued part of my life. I found the missing part of my soul that needed to be grounded and centered amongst those ancient eastern traditions, known by Master Yau.”

Richard Avila – Former Law Enforcement Officer

“I met Greg over 10 years ago. I was referred to him by our mutual martial arts friend, Ron. Greg has the ability to influence thru suggestion and a real understanding of body workings. Because of his great expertise and understanding, I have been able to get my illnesses in check and gain a much better understanding of diabetes and chronic gout. My diabetes remains in check but the main reason is that Greg showed me how to lose 40 pounds without drastically changing my eating habits. Greg has this innate sense of knowing exactly what my body needed. I have been involved with his programs almost from their inception. These cutting edge ideas have completely revolutionized how I go about my daily activities. He is able to spark my energies, relax my body, and increase my awareness. Greg’s easy demeanor makes me want to be the best that I can be. I feel privileged and very fortunate to learn from him, to get exposure to his systems and to call him my friend. I just can’t say enough good things about this incredible person.”

Steve Biondi

“Are you willing to change what you eat, what you think, and how you pray?” Greg asked me the first time we met nine years ago. “Yes” was a quick response, like a reflex. I was desperate.  The all-body joint pain was increasing while my hopes for a cure were quickly diminishing. Top Stanford Hospital doctors and medical professors were unsuccessful at giving me a prognosis, and thus a treatment for my condition. I had been a disciplined athletic person since middle school, with a perfect medical record, and no known genetic predisposition for my condition. My ailment was a mystery. “Come back in three to six months. Perhaps then, this would have developed into Lupus, Rheumatoid Arthritis, or any other Immune Deficiency disease.” A scary predicament to tell a first-time mother of a six-pound ten-ounce baby girl who was able to carry and attend to until a few hours prior to being admitted to the Emergency Room. Sitting on a wheelchair and unable to move any joint, I begged the three doctors conferring in the room to give me anything for the excruciating pain. All I wanted at that point was pain relief! Vicodin was not an option because I was nursing. An alternative was offered and I was sent home warned about liver or kidney problems if taken over a prolonged time. My internist had no objections for me to seek help via alternative medicine. The search began. Acupuncture kept coming to my mind. Several sessions with different acupuncturists led to desperation. Hopelessness was lurking. But, I had a feeling someone had the ability to help me, and all I had to do was find that person.  He was found. His name is Greg Yau.

When I met Greg, I noticed his simplicity as much as his unconventional practice. Nothing around him involves the ego, from his clothes to the makeshift cot to the recycled glass containers with strange looking roots and herbs. One could tell everything around him is there to serve a purpose and nothing else. Greg is a martial artist, but at simple glance his body does not reveal his mastery. Even his well selected few apprentices are unassuming. No special attire. No special rituals like head bowing and such. The only sign of sophistication is the combination strikes that Greg patiently and sparingly demonstrates. He seems to instruct more with words and simple moves than by constant demonstration. The friendly chatter and laughter during learning
time reminds me of children at play during school recess. I have learned that Greg’s students are successful business people, police chiefs, heads of martial arts schools, and the like.  Different people with one obvious thing in common, they all emulate Greg.

My disconcerted first impression was over as soon as Greg smiled and began talking to me. Immediately, I felt at ease.  With a curious mind, and in my usual manner, I asked many questions as if conducting an interview. One comment that stuck to my mind is Greg saying, “our paths have crossed and there is a reason and a purpose.” I agreed without understanding.  Now, I understand and know the answer to both. I will never forget the first time Greg inserted the four small needles. The excruciating joint pain I had lived with for three weeks, which seemed more like three years, disappeared instantly. It was like magic. I felt no pain during the half hour acupuncture treatment. Greg warned me that if I did not improve with three treatments, he would take me to his teacher.  I had no warning of what was to come that same night. At nightfall, my body, from neck down was in agonizing pain never before or since experienced. Greg was called past midnight because I was convinced I would not make it through the night. With a calm voice he assured me that everything would be all right. The pain pattern was being broken which meant that healing would begin soon. He was right. Since then, I have absolute trust in Greg’s skills and abilities. At sunrise, the pain had subsided. My healing process had begun. I followed Greg’s recommendations with exactitude and discipline. I never doubted or questioned his words. I believe when he says that the mind, body and spirit have to be in complete balance to achieve optimum health. I believe that “disease is, above all, dis-ease, absence of ease or Santi-sweet, joyous peace of the spirit reflected through the mind in the body” as Baird T. Spalding writes in his book Life and Teaching of the Masters of the Far East. For me, it took nine months of acupuncture, herbal teas, a special diet (not extreme, nothing of Greg is extreme except his knowledge and insights), and praying in a different way that I was used to (religious denomination has nothing to do with it). Greg showed me the way, and I followed.

When I was able to walk again and hold my then 16-pound baby, my movements were very robot-like. I had forgotten how to walk! Greg showed me how to walk in my adult age. It was amazing! Greg would tell me that walking is just catching one self from falling.  In order to walk I had to have that faith that everyone that walks has, but hardly anyone notices because it becomes second nature. To this day, I always try to catch myself from falling, not only as I walk but in every aspect of my life. If I do fall, I know it is just a reminder that somewhere, somehow I lost faith.  And is essential to gain that faith back.

After Greg helped me heal completely, I went back to my doctors at Stanford Hospital. They were amazed at my recovery and the fact that I did not develop any of the diseases they had speculated. For them it is still a mystery. Not for Greg, my family, my friends, and myself. I understand people’s skepticism but I also know that if the skeptics would doubt everything in life, they would not even be able to breathe because even that is an act of faith.  If you are reading this, you are blessed in more ways than you can imagine. If you know Greg, you are blessed to have your paths cross.  I am sure that your contact with Greg will enrich your life in every aspect.  I wish for you to realize it.  It has been proven to me that there are no coincidences in life.  We create our own personal world that we live in with our thoughts, actions, and feelings. May you create your world with love and become a true Master.

P.S. Greg, I am eternally grateful.”

Nowadays we see that a lot of back problems in the clinic due to a weak sitting and standing posture , altered movement patterns, and bad breathing that causes chest and neck problems.

I am also a passionate Wing-Chun Kung Fu practitioner. I met GM Greg Yau on a seminar about Wing-Chun Kung-Fu .He talked about the details and secrets of a good posture, proper deep breathing and how this strengthens the body calms the mind and improves you re energy. Greg told me he teaches Qi Gong to improve a persons health and the person is able to develop the power to reach his full potential in life. I did 3 Qi-Gong seminars with him and I discovered the missing link , how I could improve the results of my treatment on the long term by teaching my patients Greg ‘s Chi Gong.

Qi Gong trains the body in such a way that you re body gets his optimum structural balance. The training teaches you how you stand right on you re feed, proper knee, and pelvis position, stretching the spine so that the vertebra are staying in the right position, bringing you re thorax and ribs above your pelvis and therefore give a stable base and position for your neck and shoulders. By this proper alignment the body can work better together as a hole and becomes in his natural power and strength. One of the key points to let the body work together and connecting the arms with the legs is the the position of the pelvis. Greg ‘s Qi Gong is training the secret key points of you re body and this makes it a perfect training with maximum effect. For many years this was a secret in the Kung Fu world and now Greg is personally sharing it with the world in his online school.

Greg’s online school also teaches you all about proper breathing. A lot of problems in the body are due to bad breathing. Good deep breathing relaxes the nerves system and the mind and is a absolute need to stay healthy. The course is in sequences and is easy to learn and gives direct results. It improves you re health and well-being. Greg s Chi Gong is a self treatment to heal yourself and understanding body s principles and getting control over your body again. It reduces stress and it trains the calmness of the mind.”

“When I found GM Greg Yau I was in very poor health and down on my luck. I saw his Sil Nim Tao video on Youtube and contacted him with some questions. Lucky enough GM Yau answered me and so started a year of online instructions and teaching through videos and emails.

In this year my health improved amazingly quick and my power kept growing, GM Yau told me to take his emails and turn it into a book: “The Secrets of Wing Chun for Self-mastery” and helped me set up my own Kung Fu school “Lyn Harmony Wing Chun”.

Now at 38 years old very healthy, I’m stronger than I ever was and I’m still gaining strength. This makes me living proof that GM Greg Yau’s Online Qigong System works and can be effectively taught online.”

My name is William C. Gough, my degrees are in Electrical Engineering from Princeton University. I have worked most of my life as a research manager in plasma physics, controlled fusion power, and high energy physics. I co-founded the Foundation for Mind-Being Research in 1980 and am the current Chairman of the Board. The Foundation explores the bridge between science and the physical/mind/spirit connections.

I have known Gregory Yau, a Shaolin Kung Fu master, for almost a decade. My respect for Gregory grew initially through his acupuncture skills, then through his martial arts training techniques. What fascinated me scientifically was his development of an effective program for transferring his knowledge through the use of symbolic processes to the cellular structure of a person’s physical body. The use of “sacred symbols” to amplify the transfer of specific information to the body was very intriguing.

I am now 74 years old and have personally observed the enhancing effects that Gregory Yau’s information patterns can have upon our body. I have recommended to the FMBR President, Dr. Tiffany Schneider, that we seek funds to scientifically explore the process of energy enhancement that is occurring using the products that Mark and Gregory are developing.”

“In my years of training in the Martial Arts, I have had the great opportunity to train with many of the best Masters, Grandmasters, and Professors in the arts. Many of the instructors are founders of their own arts. Arts that they documented from their understanding of the human anatomy and its functions and abilities, physically or mentally. Many times we shared philosophies, strategies, and training techniques that would enhance the performance of our student’s athletes.

Until meeting and working with Greg Yau, I never realized just how much we “did not “know about the power and dynamic abilities an athlete could excel to with the proper training. Training that has a track record of success of producing more powerful results in a shorter period of time and less physical or mental effort. Greg’s’ work is comprised of these features. Greg’s training methods can, and will produce the ultimate athlete. Since training with Greg my students and I have excelled in our athleticism and understanding of methods to increase power, speed, flow, and obtain top physical fitness. We have produced many champions in local and international tournaments and are very excited and enthusiastic as to how great our “Perfect Athletes” will be with extended training from Greg’s’ programs”.
