Legends of Kung Fu

The show, Shaolin Warriors, is much more than a Kungfu demonstration. The four "acts" in the production symbolize the seasons of summer, autumn, winter and spring and present the profound philosophical theory that rests at the heart of Buddhism. Shaolin Warriors presents the magnificent and rarely-seen temple life of the Shaolin monks: Their Buddhist meditation and martial arts training during the coldest and hottest times of the year. In addition to the breath-taking Kung fu show, the audience will come to understand some of the doctrine of the "Unity of Zen and Martial Arts." Shaolin Warriors The show is an extravaganza, with gorgeous scenery, enchanting music, beautiful lights and props. In this fully choreographed spectacular that features Shaolin style martial arts practitioners, audiences will be amazed and thrilled by watching cracking metal bars and wooden sticks on the kung-fu masters’ foreheads as well as two-handed double whips at the speed of sound. All of these breathe-catching tricks are REAL – flesh against flesh, flesh against steel, body over spirit and mind over matter. These warriors show that mind over matter is achievable to degrees that seem unfathomable. Shaolin Warriors is more than a theatrical experience; it is an honour and a privilege to see this show.
