OC Shaolin Temple Cultural Center

This is a genuine master which will help you achieve your practice goals: martial arts, health and/​or spiritual growth. Beside Kungfu, you can learn true Tai Chi and QiGong. I started with QiGong since it is the foundation practice. Sifu teaches main Shaolin groups of exercises which are meant to build up strength and open body meridians. I’ve seen very fast results with daily practice (you need to put the effort), really worth it. I am also taking Tai chi classes, and i really love it. He is patient and demonstrates movements several times. I like how he watches us moving and then shows us how to correct, explains what we are not doing right and why it is not helping us.

If you are looking for the ultimate martial art master, look no further. Master Shi Yanqing, aka Sifu, only recently arrives from China and he is here to pass on ancient Shaolin Kung Fu techniques to both adults and children. His studio offers classes in Tai Chi, Qi Gong meditation, Adult Self-​defense, Adult Sparring classes, and Kids Kung Fu. Both Adult Self-​defense and Adult Sparring classes, which I’ve enrolled in, offer quite a workout. I learned so much in both classes that I’ve enrolled my 7 year old son also into their Kids Kung Fu class. In the past years we have tried 2 Taekwon Do studios in Costa Mesa and he didn’t really learn anything. But with Master Shi Yanqing my son has quickly learned some choreograph Shaolin Kung Fu moves. Just after 2 lessons, he gained enough confidence that he defended himself against a bully in school. After my son block the bully’s punch and showed him some Shaolin punches and kicks the bully never bothered him again. My son has gained much confidence after a few lessons that he was motivated to keep learning more Shaolin Kung Fu. I learned a lot too in the Adult Defense class. As a woman with smaller stature it is good to learn some techniques so if ever someone tries to attack me I will learn how to defend and also attack. Since Master Shi Yanging knows all about Chinese weaponry he will eventually teach me how to use weapons like long stick, broad swords, short swords/​knifes, etc. after I master some basic Kung Fu techniques. Learn from THE Master who has more trainings above all the Shaolin teachers in the area (and can train them too) and you will get your money’s worth!
