In addition to the spiritual teachings, Grand Master Wei Ren Feng oversaw the physical development of Master Feng. At age eight, Master Feng’s father placed him under the tutelage of a private Gong Fu instructor, Master Wong Jian An. Master Feng entered the Academy of Judo in Tainan, Taiwan at age 12. This teaching continued after the family immigrated to America in the 1960s. His numerous teachers include Master Kuo Lian Ying (Qi Gong, Tai Ji Quan), Professor Ray Law (Jujitsu, Judo), Wakabayashi Sensei (Judo), Professor Wang Pei Kun (Tai Ji Quan, Ba Gua), Shihan Keiko Fukuda (highest ranking woman Judoka), Wally Jay (Jujitsu Master), and Gurumayi (Siddha Yoga).
Shi Fu Feng received a black belt at age nineteen in Judo and Jujitsu and holds a second-degree black belt in Jujitsu and a fourth-degree in Judo. Shi Fu Feng started teaching internal and external systems of Gong Fu, Kodokan Judo and Kodenkan Jujitsu in 1966. In 1967, he was the AJJF national heavyweight champion in Judo.
Master Feng developed the Wu Chien Pai system and opened the Wu Tao Kuan Martial Arts Institute in 1973 in Berkeley. Wu Tao Kuan is now housed at Zhi Dao Guan, the Taoist Center, where Shi Fu Feng continues to blend the uniqueness of Chinese and Japanese styles of martial arts and healing arts into the Wu Chien Pai system. Master Feng continues to teach tai ji (yang and chen), tai ji weapons, ba gua, qi gong, and push hands.
