Shaolin Kung Fu refers to a collection of
Chinese martial arts that claim affiliation with the
Shaolin Monastery. Of the tens of thousands of
kung fu and
wushu styles, several hundred might have some relationship to Shaolin; however, aside from a few very well known systems, such as
Xiao Hong Quan, the
Da Hong Quan,
Yin Shou Gun,
Damo Sword, etc., it would be almost impossible to establish a verifiable connection to the
Temple for any one particular art.
