Meet Grand Master Chan Hui of Canning Town, London

Every morning Grand Master Chan Hui performs Tai Chi to cultivate his mental energy and calm his mind. What makes him even more unusual, is that he chooses to do so under the bridge in Canning Town, London.

Paul Reson’s short hybrid film is part of Tristan C. Anderson’s #Soundtracks project, in which eight documentaries have been created as a score to Anderson's music. “Minerals”, the latest in our Free of the Week series, explores the urban philosophy of Grand Master Chen Hui to a soothingly meditative and calming effect.

A great match to Anderson’s music and an endearing insight into the positive impact of Tai Chi, watch “Minerals” for yourself below, for free.

Edit: ‘Free of the Week’ is now ‘Short of the Week’.
