BeikokuBushido Posted November 15, 2003 Posted November 15, 2003 http://www.shaolin-do.com/ Has anyone herd of Shaolin-Do? Has anyone trained with Master Mullins Shaloin Do School? If so what do you think about the training? Is the lineage of the school true?
Jussi Häkkinen Posted November 15, 2003 Posted November 15, 2003 Well, "shaolin" is a Chinese word, "do" is a Japanese word. Same words in Chinese: Shaolin-tao. Same words in Japanese: Shorin-do. Given that the person has had no clue about basic linquistics when naming his style, it's rather safe to assume that he has no friggin' clue about the martial art side either. And well, I have only heard negative things about Shaolin-do. The issue has been discussed in forums such as E-Budo in a quite a thorough manner. Lineage is utter bullsh*t. Avoid like the plague.

cross Posted November 15, 2003 Posted November 15, 2003 I agree with Jussi Häkkinen. People who can't give their style a name that uses 1 language generally don't teach anything worth while.
aznkarateboi Posted November 15, 2003 Posted November 15, 2003 If they can't even get the name straight, what does that say about the style?
Iron Arahat Posted December 2, 2003 Posted December 2, 2003 Some of the Master pictures are interesting on that site http://www.shaolin-do.com/masters/index.shtml Also the kata names are interesting as they include Japanese names, and with over 40 "katas" I am curious how technical they are. I would be interested to see pictures Martial Arts School http://www.shaolinwushu.cahttp://www.liveyyc.comCalgary Photographer: http://www.jdirom.com

cross Posted December 2, 2003 Posted December 2, 2003 You will notice at http://www.shaolin-do.com/pages/legal.html it says that " Videotaping of any aspect of the Shaolin Do Art is strictly prohibited." .... maybe they have something to hide.

Drunken Monkey Posted December 4, 2003 Posted December 4, 2003 it always bothers me why so many guys these days wear them damned 'kung fu'/'karate' trainers? and OI!!! nothing wrong with monkeys.... post count is directly related to how much free time you have, not how intelligent you are."When you have to kill a man it costs nothing to be polite."
