We’ve all heard the name Shaolin kung-fu and know it is synonymous with the Chi-

nese monks – heads shaven, wearing robes, displaying seemingly paranormal abilities. The mystery that is Shaolin has grown into a multi-million dollar industry replete with movies, international skill showcase tours, and tours to the Monastery itself in China’s Henan province. The Shaolin Monastery, also known as the Shaolin Temple, is a Chan (“Zen”) Buddhist temple in Dengfeng County, Henan Province, China. Dating back 1,500 years, Shaolin Temple is the main temple of the Shaolin school of Buddhism to this day.

INTRODUCTORY OFFER PROMO

But for most, the truth of the Temple and Shaolin itself, is a mystery. Shaolin Kungfu is a traditional cultural system that was formed in the Buddhist cultural environment, in Shaolin Temple of Songshan Mountain, over centuries. It is based on a belief in the supernatural power of Buddhism, and fully reflects the wisdom of Chan Buddhism. The martial arts practiced by monks in the Shaolin Temple are its major forms of expression.

According to historical records, Shaolin Kungfu is the one school, among a myriad of Chinese martial arts schools, which boasts a long history, a complete system, and the highest level of skills. Shaolin Kungfu is a huge and well-developed technical system, as opposed to the many “schools” or “Quan styles” of other martial arts. Chinese martial arts are complicated in structure, and abundant in schools.

Shaolin is not just limited to Chinese monks; it is a way of life in which people can take advantage of its teachings — both from a martial arts and spiritual sense. Lohan Chuan

The Shaolin monks practiced these exercises religiously and they discovered that not only were they able to meditate longer, they also noticed an increase in strength and muscular endurance. This is the knowledge that was used by the Monks, to develop the movement of the ’18 Hands’ into a fighting system called shaolin chuan-fa. Shaolin Chuan-Fa - A comprehensive system that deals with using body positioning and long-range techniques to use the opponent’s strength against him. Lohan chuan’s long-range kicking techniques and short-range self-defense movements make the system graceful and unpredictable and because the Buddhists developed it, it is fast, strong , evasive, multi-directional, non=direct, deceptive, effective and efficient while be nonconfrontational. We hope to help you train in these techniques. Please do not hesitate to sign up as a Member, if you arent already, and receive 30 days introductory course, including one on one instruction with Bob Holland. You will be given an interview first of all to assess your skill level and goals.

THE START TO A NEW BEGINNING NEW START

Lohan chuan literally means, “enlightened fist” and is said to be the original style developed by the Shaolin monks as a way to defend themselves from bandits who often raided their temple. The Indain prince - Bodhidarma ( Dao- the enlightened one ), supported the Shaolin Monks in defending themselves by teaching them a series of exercises to strengthen their bodies so they could withstand longer periods of meditation. These early forms of calisthenics were known as the “18 Hands of the Lohan”.
