Sun Jianyun, daughter of Sun Lutang, passed away in Beijing, China on October 2, 2003. Tim studied Sun Lutang's taijiquan and baguazhang with Jianyun back in the mid-1990s.
Another great loss to the Chinese martial arts community.
Sun Jianyun was one of the most generous teachers I ever had the good fortune to meet.
It seems that many great martial artists have died in recent years - I am deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Sun Jianyun.
