Sifu Roy Sorvari began training in Chinese martial arts in 1983 and has studied under national and international masters. He earned his black belts in Kenpo karate, then continued his training in kung fu, Tai chi, Qigong and I Chaun.
In 1984 Roy was introduced to Madam Min Ou Yang through Dale Freeman. Sifu Roy trained under her tutelage from 1992 until her passing in 2007. Min Ou Yang’s Qigong training was under her late husband, Professor Peng-Xing Yu, and his teacher was Master Wang Xiang Zhai. Professor Yu was taught the secrets of chi development by Tibetan Buddhist authority Norlha Renpoche.
Madam Min Ou Yang’s Tai Chi was learned directly form Yang, Chen Fu, who also taught her Tai Ji which is still mostly unknown in the Western hemisphere.
Roy achieved “tung qi,” the ultimate level of chi cultivation, through Dale Freeman under the direction of John Cole, in January of 2011, joining the ranks of the few who ever attain this high level of chi development.
Most recently, Roy trained under Grandmaster Rick Wing, successor of Wong, Jack Man.
