Shaolin Temple USA is the first North America branch organization of the world famous Songshan Shaolin Temple in Henan Province of China, the original Shaolin Temple established in 495 AD.

Under the direction of Master Shi YanRan—34th generation Shaolin Temple Buddhist Monk, a team of Shaolin Temple Kung Fu Monks is now stationed at Shaolin Temple USA to carry on the 1,500-year old traditions and training disciplines of Shaolin Temple. Their mission is to share Shaolin culture with the American people. Shaolin Temple USA teaches Shaolin Kung Fu Chan (Zen) through the disciplines of Shaolin Kung Fu (Gongfu) and Chi Kung (Qigong). 

Students of all backgrounds, faiths, ages and athletic abilities are welcome to train at Shaolin Temple USA.

Shaolin Kung Fu is a time-tested, comprehensive system for physical and spiritual wellness. Students can come to Shaolin Temple USA to learn and grow from traditional Shaolin training and culture. Shaolin Chan cultivation and training disciplines transcend language and cultural difference as a direct form of growth and understanding. Students find many paths to the Temple. Some students seek to build better health and create a feeling of well-being, others may train for self-defense or flexibility. Disciplined training leads to harmony of body and mind.
