shaolin
Masters of Kung-fu is a documentary on the ancient art of Shaolin kung-(or ‘gong’) fu and grants unprecedented access to these renowned warrior monks and shows us training their incredible skills and feats of strength. From the reverence shown to Boddidharma who came from India in 527AD, to gaining an insight into the monks’ daily schedule, this video is a stimulating journey into the world of Shaolin!
At 31:10 mins until the end, we even get a special treat, an event incorporating the night of the masters: especially talented seniors of the temple demonstrating those famed, extreme techniques of control and breaking (eg. breaking of concrete and metal on the head, rock-chopping by hand and more)!
