NORTH SHAOLIN TEMPLE




The Shaolin Temple is known all over the world for its Kung Fu training and Buddhist teachings. However the world is yet to discover that another Temple is preserving this tradition in new ways.
The North Shaolin Temple, a sub-temple to the Shaolin Temple Monastery, has a 900 year old history which is almost completely unknown outside the Shaolin tradition. The Temple’s resident monks are trying to preserve its tradition but with much of the Temple’s records and spiritual artefacts were destroyed since its first construction in 1312, they face an uphill struggle to bring the Temple back to its former glory.

This documentary introduces the history of this Temple and its current teachings. It reveals how the Temple’s monks are rebuilding its forgotten legacy by protecting the ancient Shaolin teachings, where Buddhism is lived through kung fu training. It also reveals how the Temple is developing its heritage by opening its doors to new community of students from around the world.

Fundraising 5K Run



On 24th March Katie and Michelle ran a 5K run in Ringwood for our charity. Both ladies started at the back of the field and overtook many runners to come in mid field and also beat their personal bests. It was a very cold day and spectators shivered at the finish line waiting for them to run home and wearing their bright pink tops and hats, it wasn't hard to miss them! Thank you to both ladies for their training and competing in aid of our charity.
