Shaolin Kung Fu School in China

Master Xu Yong (buddhistic name Shi Yan Lin) has opened a shaolin kung fu school which is named International Kung Fu Training Center and YunTai Mountain International Culture And Martial Arts School. It is located in henan province about 1 1/2 h away from the capital city zhengzhou and 1/2 h from jiaozuo in a huge geological park which even has been honored by the UNESCO.

This Yuntai Mountain Geological Park is in the whole world famous for his huge gardens, high overhanging cliff, water falls, cozy valley and 'springing water'. Here in the middle of the nature it is the ideal place to learn Shaolin Kung Fu ...

Training

The training is carried out by six trainers under the supervision of Xu Yong who all possess more than 15 years experiences with foreign students and teach them since many years. Each of the trainers learnt shaolin kung fu from their childhood, so that acrobatic, forms, weapons, tai chi and sanda (Chinese Boxing) will be taught optimally. The training is hard so you should be prepared well before coming to china (running and a lot of stretching would be good preparation exercises).

Before you will start learning forms, the trainer will check your skills. It doesn't make any sense to learn a monkey form, but you can't perform some acrobatics movements or special kicks inside this form. Beginners will learn these forms, starting with

Xiao Hong Quan (Small Red Fist)

Tong Bei Quan (Straight Complete Arm)

Shaolin Quan.

Of course you can learn advanced animal forms too (e.g. Drunken Boxing, Drunken Stick, Praying Mantis, Tiger, Dragon, Monkey and more).

Shaolin Kung Fu includes a number of various weapons, starting with famous

Shaolin Gun (Shaolin Stick)

Shaolin Dao (Shaolin Sword)

Shaolin Qian (Shaolin Spear)

San Jie Gun (3-section Staff)

Jiu Jie Bian (9-section whip)

Jian (Taiji Sword).

You can learn some special weapons (Pu Dao (Long-handled broadsword, Lian Jie Gun (nunchakku) and so on ) too.

Our school offers Sanda and Taiji Quan (Tai Chi) too.

Sanda is also named chinese boxing. Here you will learn how to fight. This training includes conditional training to strengthen your body to maximum and learn kicks and punches against opponents. The Sanda trainer, who won many competitions, will now train foreign students.

A special Tai Chi coach from Chen Jia Gou, the origin of the Chen Style, is teaching Tai Chi to chinese and foreign students.

Each student can decide whether he would like to participate in Shaolin Kung Fu, Sanda or Tai Chi training. Changing the course within a month is possible too.

At the end of your stay, you can make an examination to get a diploma.
