Welcome to the Caldwell Shao-Lin Center for Martial Arts

Kung Fu (Gong Fu),  “Mastery through Time and Effort”, is a term used to describe the martial arts that originated in China. Shaolin Kung Fu was developed by the Shaolin Monks of Northern China and is comprised of many different martial art systems. The Monks created this type of training for overall health, mental and physical conditioning, and self-defense. Their self defense skills were considered so impressive that they were recognized by the Tang Dynasty Emperor as “Warrior Monks”!
