Introduction

The Pure Shao Lin Kung Fu Academy teaches the Chinese Arts of Kung Fu, Taichi and other forms that generate constructive energy for harmony in the body, the spirit and the world. In these arts, the larger point is that the mind is not separate from the body. How you move and behave in physical ways can afffect and enhance how you build a healthy lifestyle.

Pure Shao Lin Kung Fu was founded in 2004 with primary focus on Northern Shao Lin Kung Fu. Today, we have grown into a sports academy with many divers goals such as promoting cultural exchange between China and the United States, providing the public with authentic instruction in Chinese Martial Arts, training the Wushu Teams for World Championships and serving as a resource center for Academy members. We also wish to provide educational opportunities for coaches and judges to study physical education in China.

Pure Shao Lin Kung Fu has a variety of programs for all ages and skill levels from beginner to advanced. We strive to provide a positive learning experience for those interested in Chinese Martial Arts.

Philosophy

At Pure Shaolin, we help our students attain balanced bodies and minds in a pleasant environment where they can explore a wide range of wonderful movements and exercises derived from the human body. We strive to stimulate our students' potential for understanding their bodies as amazing repositories of energy by focusing our training on balance ability and physical coordination. We realize that mastering balance allows our students to adapt to and be in harmony with the myriad of people and objects they encounter in the world. A developed sense of balance gives our students powerful core strength that significantly exceeds the strength available to athletes using power from the individual muscles of the body. Our training also encourages students to utilize balance in all areas of their lives -- academics with entertainment, intensity with endurance, acting with thinking etc.
