I really dont understand the need to do demos in fancy dress. Standard silks are fine... but Taoist robes just look silly.

westerners like to wear easterner outfit,
it gives them misty very traditional feeling.

Silks just feel good imho. Can get some nice feedback with them. Sweats work fine tho
The form is the notes, the quan is the music

from the Reiki thread
Some traditions, mainly Taoist out of Maoshan and shamanism in many forms from what I've seen, even go a step further and provide certain gifted lay practitioners with specific training designed to permanently implant deceased lineage masters within the system into the practitioner. The practitioner is usually not informed about this happening. Sometimes this is referred to as "preparing the vessel" in older texts. Jerry Alan Johnson's lineage is one of these. There are others.
Could be a case of ancient Daoist master(entity) possession 8-)
