Tao-liang Tan ({{zh|c=譚道良}}; Tan Dao-liang; born 22 December 1947) is a Chinese martial arts instructor and former film actor. He used numerous pseudonyms throughout his career, most frequently Dorian Tan Tao-liang, Tan Tao-liang, Dorian Tan, and Delon Tanners. Noted for his leg holding and hopping skills, Tan was nicknamed "Flash Legs."

In his later life, Tan dedicated his time to teaching martial arts, notably to Yuen Biao, and Shannon Lee, daughter of the late Bruce Lee.

Early life

Tao-liang Tan was born on 22 December 1947, in Pusan, South Korea. He is a Chinese Korean{{clarify|date=November 2013}} whose parents fled mainland China after the Second Sino-Japanese War broke out. At age 7, Tan began studying a number of martial arts including taekwondo, judo, hapkido and kung fu. Of these styles, he favored taekwondo as it "allowed for full contact, sparring and competition." In an interview, he said he liked high kicks because in taekwondo scoring, a kick to the head is worth two points. Tan went on to win many championships as well as a world title.

At age 23, Tan began teaching taekwondo at the National Taiwan University. He went on to teach martial arts actor John Liu.[1]

Career

In 1973, Tan's fighting style was noticed by filmmakers and he was asked to appear in the film The Hero of Chiu Chow.[2] After the film's release, he continued to act in motion pictures while spending most of his time teaching martial arts. 1976 was when Tan reached breakthrough success by starring in John Woo's Hand of Death, which also featured early performances by Jackie Chan, Sammo Hung and Yuen Biao.

After completing Last Breath in 1984, Tan retired from acting and moved to Monterey Park, California, where he opened a martial arts school in 1987 under the name Delon Tan.[2] He eventually relocated to Taiwan, and later returned to the film industry with the 1991 movie Breathing Fire, serving as executive producer using the pseudonym Delon Tanner. The plot was based on a story he wrote that was similar to his 1977 film The Flash Legs.

Tan was arrested in 2006 in Taiwan for beating up five staff at a restaurant.[3]
