Brandi Beckett

Brandi Beckett is a Canadian student who has been training under Master Yuan since October 2008. After staying at the Wudang Taoist Traditional Kung Fu Academy for 3 months she decided to return for the traditional program which started in September 2009. 

Before traveling to China, Brandi studied kung fu in Canada from the age of 14. She achieved an advanced rank and really loved her training and her fellow students but felt like there was so much left to learn that she didn't have access to at home. A classmate came to Wudang to train under Master Yuan for 1 year and when he returned and Brandi saw how much he had changed as a martial artist and as a person, she felt inspired to follow in his footsteps. Along with her sister Melanie, she quit her job in natural health and left both family and friends behind to dedicate her life to learning traditional Wudang kung fu. Learning an internal style under a true Master, Brandi is lucky enough to combine her two great passions in life, kung fu and healing. After studying alternative medicine in college and teaching both yoga and kung fu, never before has she come across a practice that so wholly encompasses training for the body, mind, and spirit. She is committed to advancing her knowledge and skill in the Wudang San Feng system so that she can return home to share this tradition with others.
