More Shaolin Pics

Here are more Shaolin Monk pictures for your enjoyment.




















A Big Thank You to Marieve for doing an excellent job with the pictures.

This exercise is designed to develop yang energy. A great conditioning exercise of the Shaolin Monks.























Here's a picture of my youngest brother Sifu Silvain performing some of the more intense striking drills of the Shaolin Monks.













This was 1 of 8 movements you should do daily to increase your health and vitality.





















Some students working the different close quarter techniques of the Shaolin Monks.



















The oldest of the Shaolin Monks led the students through a series of sword moves to increase finesse, balance, and coordination.





















The Shaolin Monks made sure to leave no student unattended. Proper form was a top priority.









Their technique was flawless. One can just imagine how many repetitions the've gone through in their training throughout the years.


They clearly don't understand the common western question: "How many more times do I have to do this?" or "I'm bored, show me something new"

Repetition, really is the mother of skill.























Even the Shaolin Monks believe in Push-Ups, this one will never go out of style, that's for sure.












Here the eldest Shaolin Monk opened the seminar with a drunken style form using the sword.

The level of explosiveness got a few students snapping their heads back, as you can see in this picture.

















With so many students in the school, it made for a very special 'ambiance'. Everyone feeding off of each others energy.































Here Sifu Brian and one of my Black Belts, Peter, engage in the more advanced hand to hand techniques.




Pierre-Olivier, another one of my advanced students, demontrates an exercise we also use in our FSD training, the Bow and Arrow.


Great for conditioning the Shoulder, increasing focus and strengthening the kidneys.

































I got to work with the Shaolin Monks throughout the night and was fortunate enough to receive a gift from him, one of his personal weapons which he used during the seminar.


A souvenir I'll hold on to, to remember the experience.

You can also hold a piece of Shaolin Monk memorabilia by way of DVD.

Yesterday I mentioned how I would be making these DVDs available to a select few who act quickly.

I only made 50 copies and I have about 37 left.

Reserve one today

Until next time,

Master Yourself,

Sifu Martin
