LEARNING INTERNAL FORCE AND COMBAT APPLICATION IN THE INTENSIVE SHAOLIN KUNGFU COURSE
Intensive Shaolin Kungfu Course in Sabah
Question
Now, I don't know what to say since I am so used to physical activity and the Hoong Kuen I practiced was more physical. The question is whether I want to pursue something on the next level, something of a higher level.
Being an open minded individual, my answer is to try going to a few classes and start learning to see if I am capable of learning this art, as well as enjoying it as I have enjoyed the Lam Sai Wing Hoong Kuen in the past.

Answer
What you have learnt is not wasted. All you need to do is to add the essence, i.e. combat application and internal force.
Attending my Intensive Shaolin Kungfu Course is ideal. It is a comprehensive as well as in-depth course that ranges from fundamental to masters' levels. And you complete the course in only 5 days!
Many people may think I am talking non-sense. They ask how much one could learn in 5 days when they have spent years, and have learnt nothing except beautiful external forms, and punching and kicking one another randomly.
You will be surprised at what my students achieve in just 5 days at the Intensive Shaolin Kungfu Course. They develop internal force on the very first day, and by the end of the course they can effectively use kungfu for free sparring. These two points alone are enough to justify my claim that the course brings students to masters' level.
Please note that the course does not turn students into masters in 5 days. They still have to practice for a long time to become masters. But in 5 days the students are able to perform what kungfu masters should be able to do but many actually can't. Not many masters today have internal force, and fewer still can use their kungfu for free sparring.
Yet combat application and internal force, while essential in any genuine kungfu training, are not the results we value most in my Intensive Shaolin Kungfu Course. What we value more is that the course makes our students better persons in all their physical, emotional, mental and spiritual aspects. As a result of having attended the course, they will do better in whatever they do, in work and in play.
What we value most, for those who are lucky to have the experience, is a spiritual awakening. Their spirit literally expands into the Cosmos. They feel joy, inner peace, and a tremendous sense of freedom. It is a life-changing experience.
Those whose exposure to kungfu is only beautiful forms for demonstration or punching and kicking one another using kick-boxing may attack us as liars, as they could not believe what I have said can be true. What these skeptics believe or not believe is their business, and we in Shaolin Wahnam are not going to waste our time on them. But for those sincere in wanting to learn genuine kungfu, and are humble enough to learn, Confucius' advice is pertinent here. "Rather be a fool for a few days than a fool for life." If they attend my course and find my claims untrue, they are fools for a few days. If what I have said it true and they miss the opportunity, they are fools for life.
