Students of all backgrounds, religions, ages, and athletic ability can train at Center. Students come to the Shaolin Kung Fu & Lion Dance Ireland from all around the world to learn and grow from traditional Shaolin training. "Heart to Heart" and "Mind to Mind" and " Soul to Soul " is the essence of Shaolin Chan Philosophy -- and this system of training spans the differences between language and culture as a direct form of growth and understanding. Students find many paths to get to the Center; while some students seek to build better health and create a feeling of well-being, others may train for self-defense or flexibility, but there is a singular concept behind Shaolin training: martial arts and Chan Philosophy are one and the same.
