Mimi Chan, a talented individual, was born in the vibrant city of Boston, Massachusetts, but her journey took a significant turn when her father, Grandmaster Chan Pui, established the renowned Wah Lum Temple in Orlando, Florida. This marked the beginning of Mimi's extraordinary path, as she commenced her kung fu training at the tender age of three. By the time she was five, she was already impressing audiences with her performances in local exhibitions, showcasing her exceptional skills and dedication to the art.
As she grew, Mimi supplemented her martial arts training with gymnastics and dance, which enabled her to deliver an explosive display of authentic Kung Fu technique and skill, combined with dynamic acrobatic capabilities. Her highly revered performances have been showcased in various markets, including television and film, solidifying her reputation as a master of her craft.
Mimi's impressive portfolio has also earned her recognition as the martial arts video reference for Disney's beloved film, "Mulan." In 1995, she was chosen to model for the character at the MGM Studios in Orlando, further cementing her status as a pioneer in the world of martial arts.
