PERSATUAN TAI CHI HUANG TENOM oleh En. Foong Choon Sang. Terjemah oleh Len Lee Nam, Dibantu oleh Lai Yin Wai 
Lokasi: Persatuan Tai Chi Huang Tenom terletak di sebuah daerah pedalaman Sabah, iaitu Tenom. Nama: Persatuan ini ditubuhkan pada 6hb Jun 1975. Pada awal peubuhannya, persatuan ini dinamakan Persatuan Tai Chi Sabah, Cawangan Tenom. Demi menperingati Mahaguru Huang Sheng Shyian (Huang Xing Xian), maka nama persatuan ini telah diubah kepada Persatuan Tai Chi Huang, Tenom pada 11 Jun 1998. Asal Usul: Penubuhan persatuan ini adalah atas usaha sekumpulan penggemar Tai Chi di Tenom yang diketuai oleh En. Ng Kim Guan. Mereka tertarik oleh kemahiran Mahaguru Huang dan ingin mempelajari Tai Chi daripada beliau. .Lantaran itu, Presiden Persatuan Tai Chi Sabah, En, Kok Peng Fui mengetahui hasrat dan keazaman mereka, maka Persatuan Tai Chi Sabah, Cawangan Tenom pun ditubuhkan dan Mahaguru Huang merupakan jurulatih utama. Visi: Tai Chi merupakan satu siri latihan fizikal klasik yang berasal dari China dan berasaskan pada ajaran I-Ching. Tai Chi menitiberatkan falsafah Taoisme, Konfusius dan Buddha. Penekanan ini membolehkan pengamal hidup berharmoni dengan alam sekitar dan hidupan. Kesihatan badan dan minda, ketinggian tahap integriti dan moral, kesediaan untuk berkongsi kesejahteraan dengan orang lain tanpa diskriminasi dapat dijana menerusi amalan Tai Chi. Penubuhan: Pada 5 April 1970 Mahaguru Huang telah menewaskan Liao Guang Cheng dalam satu pertarungan yang bertujuan untuk mengumpulkan tabung kebajikan. Atas kemenangan tersebut, Mahaguru Huang mengemukakan konsep “Dunia Tai Chi merupakan satu keluarga” yang menyarankan semangat perpaduan dalam kepelbagaian cabang Tai Chi. 
Beliau turut menyatakan hasrat bahawa pengamal Tai Chi dari merata dunia boleh mewujudkan tempat amalan masing-masing demi mencapai tiga matlamat berikut;1) kelahiran jurulatih yang terdiri daripada sekumpulan pengamal Tai Chi yang mahir tanpa mengira bangsa, agama, asal-usul negara. 2) penyediaan kemudahan latihan yang lengkap dan dianggap sebagai “rumah” 3) kesinambungan dan perkembangan pendidikan Tai Chi. Grandmaster Huang rationalised that by achieving the first goal, trained local instructors would then be able to spread Tai Chi into other areas. With the second goal, branches owning their own buildings and facilities would be better able to withstand uncertainties and to remain resolute in the pursuit of Tai Chi. By attaining the first two goals, the third goal is more likely to fall into place. With his visionary foresight, Grandmaster Huang formulated these long term goals based on the principles of Tai Chi Tao. Continuously refining the Tai Chi exercises, with his untiring efforts, he passionately disseminated his skills and knowledge to all who were fortunate to learn from him. Grandmaster Huang repeatedly advised his students to uphold and promote the concepts of "World Tai Chi as one Family" and "Peace and Good Health among World Citizens" and that all his students transform these concepts into reality. With tenacity, the Association has totally accepted Grandmaster Huang’s unwavering goals. As the first and third goals (local instructors and securing the continuity of Tai Chi) need a longer time frame to materialise and are admittedly full of challenges, we at Tenom have adopted the goal of building the Association premises as the starting point for our Tai Chi journey. Yang Pertama Menerapkan Konsep “Dunia Tai Chi Merupakan Satu Keluarga”: Atas inisiatif pengamal Tai Chi dari Tenom dan bantuan mendiang En. Yang Long Wen, kami berjaya memperoleh RM 100,000 untuk membayar deposit pembelian sebidang tanah yang seluas 0.647 ekar. 
Pada 16 Oktober 1978, Mahaguru Huang telah dijemput untuk merasmikan upacara pecah tanah bagi pembinaan bangunan persatuan. Kos pembinaan yang dianggarkan melebihi RM 400,000 pasti merupakan satu jumlah perbelanjaan yang amat besar memandangkan keahlian persatuan pada masa itu hanyalah seramai 30 orang. Walau bagaimanapun, atas daya usaha Mahaguru Huang, sumbangan daripada pelbagai pihak turut diberikan seperti badan kerajaan, pihak swasta, ahli-ahli Tai Chi Huang dari seluruh negara dan seberang laut. Akhirnya, pembinaan bangunan telah berjaya didirikan pada tahun 1980.
Perasmian Pembukaan: Sebagai cawangan yang pertama memiliki premis, Mahaguru Huang memutuskan bahawa perasmian pembukaan dilangsungkan pada 1hb Ogos 1982. Beliau berharap agar cawangan lain meneladani Persatuan Tai Chi Huang, Tenom. Persatuan ini juga menyambut ulang tahun ke-6 dan Mahaguru Huang menyampaikan sijil kelulusan kepada para pengamal yang telah lulus ujian. Tetamu kehormat ialah Dato’ Lin Yuan Xin, Menteri Pertanian dan Perikanan Sabah. At the personal invitation of Grandmaster Huang, many distinguished guests both locally and from abroad attended the function. Among the guests were the wife of the late Grandmaster Professor Cheng Man-Ching - Madam Ding Wei Zhuang as well as students of Grandmaster Cheng including Mr Wang Shi Zhang (USA); Drs Yu Kang Qiang and Chen Han Xiong (Australia), Mr Wang Sheng Bang - President of Singapore Tai Chi Association and former Senator Zhang Yong Xiang (Singapore), General Shi Jue - Chairman of Taiwan International Tai Chi Chuan Federation, Mr Pan Qing Ru - Chairman of Kaoshiong Tai Chi Association (Taiwan), Mr Hu Yun Zhuo - President of Hong Kong Chung Hwa Martial Arts and Sports Federation, artist Mr Yi Yue Shi (Hong Kong). 
Also present were well known calligrapher Mr Huang Yao and students of Huang Tai Chi from all over the world. The total number of Tai Chi attendees was in excess of 200. In conjunction with the above function, an art exhibition featuring Chinese paintings and calligraphy was held in the Association building. The exhibits included works of Grandmaster Cheng Man-Cheng and Madam Ding Wei Zhuang, Li Xia, Ren Bo Nian, Huang Jun Bi, Weng Wen Wei, Huang Yao, Li Jia Yao, Yi Yue Shi, Guo Qin Fang, Venerable Master Bo Yuan, Tao Shou Bo, Wang Yuan Ren, Huang Guo Bin, General He Ying Qin , General Xue Yue. The above events marked the most memorable and proudest moment in the history of the Association.
Semangat Tenom: Maharaja Huang merujuk Persatuan Tai Chi Huang, Tenom sebagai satu bukti kejayaan hasil semangat berpasukan (esprit de corps). Justeru, beliau memilih persatuan ini sebagai landasan kea rah mempertingkatkan hubungan dan persefahaman dalam kalangan komuniti sejagat menerusi Tai Chi. Peninggalan Bermakna Mahaguru Huang Sheng Shyan: Walaupun ahli-ahli Tenom telah mencurahkan usaha yang tinggi untuk melihat kejayaan penubuhan premis Persatuan Tai Chi Huang, Tenom, namun sumbangan Mahaguru Huang adalah amat besar hasil ikthiar beliau yang tidak mengenal penat lelah dan kesediaan untuk menyampaikan ilmu kepada anak murid beliau. Dalam tempoh dua dekad, banyak premis telah berjaya didirikan oleh persatuan Tia Chi di seluruh pelusuk negara termasuklah New Zealand. Kini, kejayaan beliau dalam menyebarkan amalan Tai Chi di merata dunia sukar ditandingi dan pengajaran beliau tetap menjadi asas dan tunggak perkembangan dunia Tai Chi. Struktur Organisasi: Persatuan ini didaftarkan di bawah Akta Pertubuhan 1966. Menurut peraturan dan perlembagaan persatuan, pemilihan jawatankuasa tertinggi diadakan dua tahun sekali. Berikut merupakan senarai jawatankuasa tertinggi bagi tahun 2017-2018:

A Brief Chronological Life History of Grand Master Huang (GMH) By Foong Choon Sang (Some information was extracted from The Biography of Grand Master Huang) Translation by Len Lee Nam, assisted by Lai Yin Wai
The Path to Success 
GMH was exposed to Confucius teachings from young and inculcated with virtues contained in Chinese classics. In his life, he practised forgiveness for not taking revenge over his Mum’s sufferings. He was compassionate for not abusing Japanese POW, his propriety remained unshaken when his Dad was held hostage. With his determination, he overcame many adverse situations and gained the respect of adversaries.With a deep sense of sincerity, GMH paid great respect to his teachers and observed the Tao. He served his teachers as if they were his own father and acknowledged the contribution made by each of his teachers. GMH’s conduct gained the trust and love from his teachers who unreservedly disseminated their expertise to him. Being humble and sincere, GMH also benefited from his close friends who shared their martial arts knowledge with him. It was no surprise that with the vast knowledge of different types of martial arts, being gifted and unassuming, his eagerness to seek and through untiring experimentation that GMH acquired the skills in Tai Chi progressively and succeeded in becoming a grandmaster resulting in his own style of Tai Chi. GMH’s spirit in the propagation of Tai Chi has gained respect from all levels of society. He started to spread the art from a humble beginning to one that garnered strong centripetal force resulting in many Tai Chi centres being established all over the world. His contribution to world peace and health will forever be cherished. The Origin of Huang Tai Chi Chuan Tao Having followed GMH in his golden years, the writer can well appreciate the reasons for the pursuit of “Tai Chi Chuan Tao” as GMH’s life long endeavour. GMH often remarked that the practice of Tai Chi Chuan is based on the concepts of ‘Yin and Yang’, ‘hard and soft’, ‘stillness and movement’ contained in ‘I-Ching’. All these are known as Tao. Lao Zi (老子) said ‘Tao is something unseen and untouchable yet its objective presence can not be denied’. Simply put, Tao is the universal law of nature, it is omnipresent, while practicing Tai Chi it is important to follow nature. It is with such ease and relaxed state of mind that transformation takes place resulting in the weak becoming strong, the sick becoming healthy, the under performers becoming achievers, the timid becoming bold, from which the practitioner will experience a healthy and fulfilled life. GM Cheng Man Ching in his old age wrote a book entitled 'Yi Quan 易全' where he explored the close relation between human and I-Ching. He considered “Shi Yi 十翼” most relevant where the following is being emphasized: “On heaven, yin and yang”, “On earth, hard and soft” and “On humanity, love and propriety”. These universal phenomena link the elements of heaven, earth and human together and result in harmony; such philosophy is deeply embedded in Oriental culture. GMH placed heavy emphasis in ‘love and propriety’, ‘peace and harmony’ and ‘healthy body and mind’ when propagating Tai Chi, with ‘self-defence’ as a secondary objective. For these reasons, he named the art as “Huang Tai Chi Chuan Tao”.
