Master Boon is the designated lineage holder of her late father, Grandmaster Yap Cheng Hai, the pioneering Feng Shui Master who first introduced authentic Traditional Feng Shui to the West. As his only student formally conferred the title of Master according to lineage tradition, she carries forward a rare and unbroken heritage of Dao wisdom.

Born into the living traditions of Feng Shui and martial arts in Malaysia, she began training in Southern Shaolin at age four and was initiated into Feng Shui as a lived practice in her teens. Her journey bridges worlds from scientist and global business leader to Feng Shui Master and visionary guide.

Today, Master Boon transforms homes, workplaces, and property developments into systems of harmony, prosperity, and wellbeing — continuing the legacy of her late father, whose Feng Shui shaped entire townships into thriving communities. Inspired by his life’s work, she envisions one day creating cities founded on the same principles of balance and vitality.

Her self-designed “Feng Shui Palace” was featured on Grand Designs New Zealand, and her work spans five continents. Master Boon is restoring Feng Shui’s true essence - a profound practice aligning human life with the rhythms of Heaven and Earth.
