The new “Shaolin Gong Fu Duanpin System” was developed by the Shaolin Temple in China and serves as a new hierarchy for evaluating the Shaolin Kungfu level of practitioners and aims to promote the spread of Shaolin Gong Fu at home and abroad and the promoting the health of people around the world.
The new Shaolin Gong Fu Duanpin system covers the basic knowledge of the Shaolin culture, the introduction to meditation, detailed explanations of Shaolin Gong Fu, the health of traditional Chinese medicine and many other aspects.
Furthermore, with the new system, standard learning and training systems and technical evaluation standards are established that build on scientific foundations.
The stages of the Gong Fu Duanpin system
The Shaolin Gong Fu Duanpin system established nine “pin” and nine “duan”. The degree of Duan from low to high is one to nine, and the degree of Pin from low to high is one to nine. At the same time, the certificate, belts, badges and other related recognition systems were improved.
The development of the Duanpin system in China
After almost three years of practical teaching, development and evaluation by the Shaolin Temple in China, more than 4,000 students have already passed the evaluation and scholarship. The “Shaolin Kungfu Duanpin System” has thus fulfilled the conditions for the introduction and application of the system abroad.
Introduction and spread of the Duanpin system in Europe
In order to introduce and spread the new Duanpin system in Europe, the abbot of the Shaolin monastery, Shi Yong Xin, commissioned the Shaolin Europe Association to hold training courses for masters and trainers from all relevant Gong Fu schools in Europe. Shi Yong Xin sends three Shaolin masters from China as trainers.
As a first step, there will be two workshops in Vienna. A workshop on Gong Fu grades I and II and another workshop on Gong Fu grades III and IV.
