To be concerned with the revival of the original concepts of Shaolin Kung-Fu and Tai Chi Chuan. To demonstrate that these con-cepts are applicable in the mod-ern world. To ensure Tai Chi Chuan and Shaolin Kung Fu have a place in history and in modern society.

The Lohan School of Shaolin admits students of any race, color, national and ethnic origin to all the rights, privileges, programs, and activities generally accorded or made available to students at the school. It does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national and ethnic origin in administration of its educational policies, admissions policies, scholarship and loan programs, athletic and other school-administered programs.

Our GoalsOur GoalsOur GoalsOur Goals

To maintain the spirit of rediscovery and re-awakening of ideas, ideals and natural princi-pals.

To offer an alternative way of life, without drugs, medications or artificial stimulation. To educate others to be healthy and fit, and to be in touch with themselves, others and the environment.

The state of the art should be maintained, de-veloped, perpetuated and shared with those who seek health naturally and holistically.

Tai Chi Chuan is not designed to promote mus-

cle size or enhance physical endurance. It is

used to stimulate the internal organs gently,

exercise the body, calm the nervous system and

mobilize the joints. In time, the mind has a

stillness and clarity rarely experienced with

other forms of exercise. Clinical studies have

shown that Tai Chi practice can lower blood

pressure, reduce nervous tension, and benefit

the immune, digestive, cardiovascular and respi-

ratory systems.

The Tai Chi form is but a part of the whole Tai

Chi Chuan system which is over 400 years old,

a relatively new art in the Shaolin history. Origi-

nally, it was a formidable internal and external

martial art which was also beneficial to health.

It is a martial art which embodies Taoist phi-

losophy. One uses a balance of Yin (female)

techniques with Yang (male) techniques, a bal-

ance between yielding and attacking. The vast

array of martial arts techniques at the disposal

of the Tai Chi student gives a lifetime of poten-

tial study in this most excellent self-defense sys-

tem.

Correct Tai Chi practice especially requires that

the heart must be quiet, the attention must be

concentrated, and one must understand and pay

attention to “using mind, not physical strength.”

Advance and retreat are consistent. Movements

unfold with elegance and composure, continu-

ous and unbroken. This requires every part of

the body to be relaxed and alert , coordinating

and timing breathing, which in turn encourages

natural respiration strengthening the respiratory

system.

Tai Chi Chuan

Practical

Applications

Chi Kung is over 4,000 years old and is the art of

developing vital energy particularly for health,

vitality, mind expansion and spiritual cultivation.

It is self healing through energy placement. It is

an important aspect of Chinese medicine and

used throughout China as a therapeutic exercise in

many hospitals and clinics. The deep breathing

relaxes the mind and promotes a state of well be-

ing enhancing “chi” (energy) and oxygenating the

blood, organs and cells of the body.

There are thousands of types of Chi Kung and

hence, it is understandable that there are also dif-

ferent levels of attainment in the various types of

Chi Kung.

There are many wonderful benefits derived from

practicing Chi Kung, and they may generalized

into the following five categories:

• Curing illness and promoting health.

• Enhancing vitality and developing internal

force.

• Promoting youthfulness and longevity.

• Expanding the mind and the intellect.

• Spiritual cultivation.

According to Chinese medical thought, practicing

Chi Kung can cure as well as prevent all kinds of

illness, including diseases which are generally con-

sidered “incurable” by conventional medicine.

Practicing Chi Kung is also very effective for over-

coming psychological problems.

Chi Kung “Energy Control”

Self Healing Applica-tions

The Lohan School of Shaolin, under the direction of Founder, Reverend Master Steven Baugh, is dedicated to teaching the arts of ancient China both martially and spiritually, and to carry on the tradition of the great mas-ters. It is his hope that others will feel the same dedication to pass on this culture intact and unspoiled. The Lohan School encom-passes the entire art of Shaolin, both inter-nally and externally. Master Steve studied many forms of mar-tial arts and was taught & certified by some of the most renowned masters on the West Coast, many of whom left China before the Communists took power. He studied Tai Chi Chu’an under Master Marshall Ho, founder of the National Tai Chi Association in Los Angeles. He was also ordained as a priest in the Hsu Yun Chan Yen Buddhist order in 1998 in Honolulu, Hawaii and was elevated to the title of Dashi (comparable to Abbot) in 2003. The school offers classes in Yang, Chen and Tao Tai Chi which also includes the weapons in swords, sabers, fans and staffs.
