What is Kung Fu?
Shaolin Kung Fu is believed to have
begun  in the fifth century in
religious temples. The monks
sought a mind and body discipline.
In addition to the fighting style, Kung
Fu also includes mental exercises
and holistic practices designed to
balance the whole body. Kung Fu is
fundamentally about  aligning the
practitioner with chi, the life force
which is believed to move all
around us.
Shaolin or otherwise, Kung Fu is
characterized by self defense tactics
that turn the energy of an attacker
against him or her. Techniques do
vary but generally, Kung Fu styles
teach grapples, throws, kicks,
punches, and the use of weapons
such as staffs, broadsword, steel
fan, and straight sword. In tandem to
the physical discipline, most Kung
Fu styles place an emphasis on
honor, respect, and living a balanced
life.
Kung fu is one of a number of
Chinese martial arts designed to
refine the body and the mind.
Because  many films incorporate
Kung Fu techniques, It is quite
possibly the most widely known
Chinese martial arts, Hundreds of
styles of Kung Fu exist all over the
world. Most styles taught can be
divided into one of two categories:
Shaolin style and those that out date
the Shaolin order.
