Shao-Lin
(Shaolin) Kung-Fu (Gong Fu) is a 1500 year old
Chinese martial art developed by the monks in Honan Province for
health, mental and physical conditioning, and self-defense. The
system encompasses empty hand, the 18 classical weapons, and animal
fighting styles. Internal areas include Tai Chi, Pa Kua, Hsing-I,
and ancient breathing & meditation.
