When any of us were growing up we all had a dream. My next guest on Conversations comes from a large family in the Gabonese Republic in Central Africa. He had a dream like no other. 

Guess what he wanted to do! 

As a teenager Luc Bendza dreamed of becoming a master of Kung Fu, of disarming his adversaries and enemies with lightning speed and skill, of flying through the air like Chinese martial artists have been doing for untold centuries. 


Extraordinary things happen in life. On the next broadcast of Marvels of China: Pathways to the Pacific Rim on October 15, 2016 you are going to meet the one and only Luc Bendza who is -as we like to say- living the "dream extraordinaire."


In 1996 Luc Bendza earned a Master's degree specializing in Wushu from Beijing Sports Univesity after earning a Bachelors in physical education. He was a student at the internationally famous Saholin Temple, Shaolin Traditional Wushu School. Bendza is the founder and since 1992 the president of the Gabon Wushu Association. He is the vice-chairman of the Traditional Committee of the International Wushu Federation. In 2010 he was cultural ambassador of the United African Pavilion at the World Expo in Shanghai. He's been a successful actor in numerous films and television shows such as Twelve Dragons, Yongchun Zodiac and others. 

And that, as we like to say, is just a small sampling of Luc Bendza's many accomplishments. 

From his home in Beijing of over 30 years, we are going to hear about Luc Bendza's early life, about the Chinese marital art known as Wushu and its core styles, the benefits of Wushu training and practice, the characteristics of a successful Wushu athlete, and how he turned his mastery of Wushu into a successful movie and film career in China.
