It is important to be aware of that a lineage is nothing more - than a lineage. It doesn´t say anything about a persons skill, level of understanding or for that matter capability to teach and transmit what he or she migth know. It is however an important information of a teachers background and give some ideas of what direction the teaching migth take. It is not enough to be linked to a good teacher - it is of course a great help - but in the end it comes up to the individuals capability to understand, analyze, absorb and integrate in the mind and body what he or she learns - and most of all practise!
Unfortunately there is a tendency today that some people take up teaching with only very little knowledge. This is not fair to Taiji or Qi gong - and especially not towards the students. It is a big responsibility to take up teaching - and you need to have a deeper understanding of the issues to be taugth - theoretically and with practical experience. And that takes years to accomplish!
Torben Breman has - or had -a close relationship to his different teachers - with thousands of hours as a student on a "one to one" basis. The learning process has taking place over many years - with extended periods where he either has lived at his teachers place or the other way round. And he kepps on receiving teaching, guidance and supervision - always seeing himself as a student of Taiji and Qi gong.
Besides the main teachers listed above it is worth mentioning the following teachers who has contributet wtih teaching or guidance:
Master Chi King Hung (Yangstyle - disciple of Yang Shao Shung), Master Yek Sing Ong, Patrick Kelly, Lau KIng and Master Fong (all students of Master Huang Xiang Xian - Master Yek being the top student), and finally Chen Guan Ming (Chenstyle) and Master Feng Zhigiang (Chenstyle - student of Chen Fake).
