SHAOLIN KUNG FU VOL. 2

LEOPARD FORM

By Master Steve DeMasco

Black Belt Hall of Fame member Steve DeMasco shares his knowledge from years of training with the some of the most famous Chinese grandmasters in the world. In this Series, Steve DeMasco demonstrates these fundamental martial arts techniques from Shaolin Kung Fu. Since 1997, Steve DeMasco—a 10th-degree black belt in Shaolin Kempo— has traveled to China every year to train with the senior monks of the famous Shaolin Temple. Master Steve DeMasco's inside training with the monks at the fabled Shaolin Temple has afforded him the opportunity to share their unique curriculum with the world. "These techniques were designed 1,500 years ago and have been practiced by the Shaolin monks. The Shaolin Kung Fu system is derived from animal techniques: the tiger, the crane, the leopard, the snake and the dragon. If you watch closely, you'll see the characteristics of some of these animals — especially the snake, the crane and the tiger."
