We are a 170(b) (1) (A) (i) Religious Organization and non profit wellness ministry founded in 2018, in East Providence RI. We survive off of the charity of our patrons. Thank you for visiting us and donating to our cause Support BYD here

Our Mission is to practice, preserve, and share a unique Daoist monastic tradition from the Emei Mountains of China as well as serve as a healing and wellness ministry for the community. Through personal, intentionally-designed wellness programs for each individual we can offer eastern based healing solutions and deepen the understanding of the classical Chinese practices along as share the traditions passed down from previous abbots.

His formal education is from Roger Williams University in Environmental Engineering and Mathematics and he is an Eagle Scout.  His journey into martial arts started at 18, in Taekwondo and transitioned to Chinese martial arts. He has trained in Wushu, Taijichuan, Qigong, Xingyichuan, Baguazhang, weapons, meditation, tuina, da gong, gua sha and basic Daoist medicine practices.  After 18 years of training and 10 years of teaching publicly he decided to found a non profit in order to better share, teach and help others obtain health, wellness and longevity through monastic health modalities.

“It is my desire to share the Emei tradition with the public and to help guide folks to a healthier happier lifestyle. Life is cultivation and I seek to help people cultivate life.”
