A Once in a Lifetime Experience

What Makes This Summer Worth
Clearing Your Calendar For

Martial arts training exists everywhere. But training under authentic Shaolin lineage, in the region where the tradition was born, is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. And this year, that opportunity is open for you.

Cultural Experience

Temple visits, tea ceremonies, philosophy sessions, weekend exploration of ancient China. You live inside the culture that created these practices instead of just taking classes.

Flexibility

Choose your duration from one to seven weeks. Flexible arrival dates. Free weekends. Train intensively or balance with cultural exploration. This program adapts to your needs.

Traditional Chinese Medicine Integration

Master Peili brings certified TCM expertise with pulse diagnosis, herbal knowledge, and Women's Qigong specialization. A rare holistic dimension that deepens your practice.

Energy Shift

Training where monks have trained for centuries affects you differently. The mountains hold something you cannot replicate elsewhere. Call it energy, call it history. Either way, you feel it.

Master Shi Yan Can

34th Generation Shaolin Warrior Monk

Lived the Practice

Master Can entered the Shaolin Temple at age seven, learning directly from senior monks who passed down knowledge preserved for generations. He is the living result of that lineage, carrying the true essence and meaning of the teachings in a way books and videos cannot capture.

Connection Between Old & New

Over fifteen years of teaching internationally, he's built the bridge and made Shaolin practices accessible to the world. Fluent in both English and Mandarin, he explains not just the movements, but the philosophy and energy principles that make them work. Training with Master Can means learning from someone who understands both worlds, the old and the new.
