The Great Accomplishment Lineage V   Professor Yu Yong Nian maintained the spread of this art through his teaching and best-selling books.       In the late 1960s, a newspaper article that appeared about him in China made its way into the hands of a young martial artist in Hong Kong, Lam Kam Chuen.   The young man had already been introduced to Da Cheng Chuan through a Buddhist master, but now he had found a way to contact a teacher who had studied directly under Grand Master Wang Xiang Zhai.       For years it was only possible for him to correspond with Professor Yu until, towards the end of China's Cultural Revolution, he was finally able to travel to Beijing and be accepted as a student.
	After a decade of advanced study, Master Lam was accorded the honour of being acknowledged as a lineage-holder of the Da Cheng Chuan tradition by Madame Wang Yuk Fong, the daughter and spiritual heir of Grand Master Wang Xiang Zhai (page 74).   Master Lam Kam Chuen has continued to work closely with Professor Yu. It is a professional collaboration that spans the western medical system - in which Professor Yu trained as dental surgeon, and Traditional Chinese Medicine, which Master Lam practises.       Their extensive, yet distinct, medical experience is unified by their common practice of Chi Kung.
	After coming to the west, Master Lam gave the first European demonstration of Da Cheng Chuan before a capacity audience in London in 1987.       He then received permission from Professor Yu to commence training students in the art. This was followed by his groundbreaking work The Way of Energy, introducing Zhan Zhuang to the West, with a foreword by Professor Yu.       The book has now been translated into more than a dozen languages and sold tens of thousands of copies worldwide.   In 1994, he was invited by UK television network Channel Four to present a 10-part series Stand Still Be Fit, filmed on location in China and Hong Kong.       Public response was unprecedented, with thousands ordering copies of the instruction booklet that accompanied the program.
	Master Lam continues to teach and travel widely in Europe and North America.       He regularly arranges visits, teaching programs and seminars that enable western students to train under Chinese masters and exchange experience with practitioners in China.   The western students who first trained to become instructors are holders of the limited-edition statue of Grand Master Wang Xiang Zhai, held by Professor Yu and Madame Wang in the photo on the facing page.     Da Cheng Chuan home page
