Wushu made its debut on the world stage and is featured as an official sport at the 2026 Youth Olympic Games in Dakar, Senegal. This is a major milestone for wushu and an opportunity to showcase Wushu as part of the Olympic movement.
Miranda Wei is representing Canada in the Women’s Taiji overall combined event. Jia you Miranda!
And in Miranda’s corner is Wayland Li Wushu’s own Erica Li, representing Canada as the Wushu coach for this event.
Good luck to Miranda and Erica!
And finally, Master Jennifer Gu is appointed as Head Judge for Wushu at the competition, a real honour and recognition of her expertise.
Go Canada go!
