Chi-Gung teacher and Oolong tea ambassador shares his philosophy, as he prepares the finest Oolong tea. Film by Ken McHardie. http://www.kenmchardie.com
I recorded this while on holiday in Thailand in October 2009, partly to try out my new Canon 5dII camera, and also as I believe San-bao has some interesting and worthwhile things to say.

San-bao teaches Chi-Gung at Spa Samui and hosts regular Chinese (Oolong) Tea Ceremonies at various resorts on the Island of Koh Samui in Thailand. He also leads small exclusive parties of tea connoisseurs on Oolong tea experience trips to Taiwan. He’s a pretty cool guy with a good philosophy on life.

Regular consumption of Oolong tea is associated with several health benefits, including weight-loss, antioxidants (which can help prevent cancers), heart and lung health etc. Check it out for yourself. It also tastes really great.

I was even more annoyed than I was when I made the Obama Parody the day before.
This video has had a tremendous reception on Youtube, climbing to number 3 top-viewed UK video in the first week, and number one viewed video in South Africa.
