"Goldie Cheung was
born in Hong Kong, where from an early age she
had a great interest in Chinese dance and music.
She took the opportunity to learn and practice
more, and taught dance to students at the Hong
Kong University of Science and Technology.
In 2011 Goldie appeared on
UK television many times and was selected as one of
the last 16 acts to join the live televised finals
of the top UK show the X Factor.
Goldie is also a
fully qualified Tai Chi teacher who
has studied Tai Chi and Chi Kung both in Hong Kong
and the United Kingdom. Goldie came to Tai Chi
after fracturing part of her spine in an accident
and, although recovering full mobility after a short
period of paralysis, suffering chronic back pain as
a result. Goldie is now pain free, which she
attributes to her practicing Tai Chi over the years.
Goldie also has an
interest in, and has qualifications in, other
holistic disciplines, and teaches Tai Chi and Chi
Kung, and Chinese culture, language, dance and song
privately and through classes and workshops at
various locations locally.
Goldie
has been very successful at a competitive level,
both in tai chi and in Chinese singing and dancing.
She won three Gold Medals at the
British Open Championships of the Tai Chi Union for
Great Britain (TCUGB), and two Gold Medals at the
British Council for Chinese Martial Arts (BCCMA)
British Championships in 2007, as well as a special
award for the Most Outstanding Female Competitor at
the TCUGB Open Championships that year.
Goldie Cheung is also a
successful Chinese singer, having been selected to
represent Europe in the world final of the Chinese
Channel’s “Minutes to Fame” competition, where she
performed the music of one of Hong Kong’s greatest
popular singers, Anita Mui.
Goldie
regularly sings and performs dance routines and tai
chi workshops at charity and community events,
including Chinese New Year celebrations in Liverpool
and surrounding areas."
