The UK Shaolin Temple is a Chinese martial arts organisation. A training centre for Shaolin Kung Fu and Ch'an Buddhism. Teaching the oldest martial arts in the world.

The UK Shaolin Temple has been established since 2002 and we have a very good reputation and are well known through our involvement with the Shaolin 'Wheel of life' performance troupe. The UK Shaolin Temple offers Kung Fu ( Gong fu ), San Shou/San Da, Chi Kung ( Qi Gong ). Students of all backgrounds, religions, ages, and athletic ability can train at the UK Shaolin Temple. People come to the UK Shaolin Temple from all around the world to learn and grow from traditional Kung Fu (gong fu) training. Students follow Shi fu's guidance and discipline whilst training in Gong fu. Many students train very hard and are very disciplined. While some students seek to build better health and create a feeling of well-being, others may train for self-defense (San Shou) or flexibility. However there is a singular concept, Gong fu training and Chan Philosophy are one and the same. To see what we training, please click here.

To learn real Shaolin Kung fu or any other martial arts, you must learn from the very beginning, little by little, step by step. Unfortunately, you cannot jump from the very beginning to the advanced levels, in this case you will waste your time and you will also damage you body’s development.
