    I would like to go there but I can't justify the travel time and cost of gas. I'm pretty much limited to these two schools. I'm starting to lean towards Shaolin arts because they seem more traditional.

    I'm actually in the same dilemma as you are. I live in Scottsdale and I'm also looking for a more traditional school. Tell me if you find anything.

    Shaolin Temple Cultural Center of Arizona

    SHAOLIN TEMPLE CULTURAL CENTER OF ARIZONA

    Welcome to the Official Website of the Shaolin Temple Cultural Center of Arizona
    Announcements: **NEW 7/22/2023**

    Class Schedule has been updated to reflect current class needs.

    "The purpose of the Shaolin Culture Center is to improve the physical and mental health of our students, regardless of religious boundaries. We strive to spread the Shaolin culture and be a platform for communication between different cultures around the world."

    Who We Are:
    The Shaolin Temple Cultural Center of Arizona (STCCA) is officially sanctioned by Abbot Shi Yongxin of the Shaolin Temple in Henan, China. We are proud to be the newest addition in an ever increasing line of institutes, dedicated to the spread and promotion of Shaolin kung fu and the distinct culture of the Shaolin Temple, across the United States and around the world. Our founder, Master Shi Yanqing, is a former monk of the temple in Henan, China and has travelled all over the state--from Yuma to Sedona and almost everywhere in between--performing and teaching kung fu and Shaolin culture to hundreds of students. Since 2010 STCCA has organized and overseen seven trips to China with Arizona students where they were granted access to train inside the temple itself. Planning is currently underway for an eighth trip in 2021

    What is the Shaolin Temple:
    Situated in China's Songshan Mountains, the Shaolin Temple is believed by many to be the birthplace of martial arts. It was built in 495 AD to accommodate an Indian monk translating scriptures, but it was another monk--Bodhidharma-- who put the temple on the map as the origin of Chan Buddhism and kung fu. The temple, Shaolinsi, whose name literally means "temple in the forests of Shaoshi Mountain" has endured a long history of destruction and reconstruction. Today, most of the temple has been restored and it enjoys new-found glory as Buddhists and avid martial artist from around the world flock to its steps.

    For more information on the Shaolin Temple you can visit their official website.
