THE REAL THING
3.  The reasons for international travel to China
for Shaolin monk training may become more
apparent after your arrival:
THE RIGHT RESOURCES
1. Authentic and traditional Chinese culture is the norm
when staying at a Shaolin temple for training. Thus,
the authentic experience that students seek is nearly
guaranteed.
2. The ancient surroundings that add to the
atmosphere of the Shaolin monastery are enhanced
by the actual warrior monks who oversee training.
3. The only way to learn ancient martial arts -- as they
are supposed to be taught -- is by studying under
those who’ve spent a lifetime perfecting their own
skills. This generational knowledge is commonplace
at the Shaolin monastery on Song Mountain in
Dengfeng City, Henan Province.
4. Hundreds have already decided to learn Kung Fu in
China and undergo Shaolin monk training. Here’s what
some students had to say about it.
 “The knowledge of all of the masters, the attitude of the
students, the overall atmosphere of the surroundings and the
progress a dedicated student can make under these
conditions is incredible,” a former student and visitor to the
Shaolin monastery wrote.
 “I enjoyed working with my masters; they gave me so much
and were patient and understanding,” a student of more than
three months wrote in her review.
These are just two examples of experiences from those
who opted to learn Kung Fu in China. Imagine what new
memories you could return home with!
REASON AND RATIONALE
