You've Been Searching

You long for depth, authenticity and Zen expressed in movement.

Not fighting. Not fitness workouts. Not acrobatics. Something deeper.

You've sensed it exists. The real thing. A tradition preserved in its entirety, transmitted directly from master to student across generations.

You want to build a deep, consistent practice over time. To attach to a lineage. To receive personal guidance, not just consume a video library.

You want the real thing. You've found it.

09  The teachers
Shifu Wu Nanfang

Shifu Wu Nanfang

In 1869, as political turmoil threatened Shaolin Temple, the monk Wu Gulun was chosen to preserve the internal arts. He left monastic life and protected the complete system within his family, passed down through five generations.

Shifu Wu Nanfang is the current lineage holder. He has lived and breathed Kung Fu since childhood, learning from his father and grandfather before him. He is 63 now. His life's task is to transmit this art to the next generation.

He has no interest in profit or fame. Only Kung Fu. Only transmission.

For the first time, he is personally teaching online. He wants to give everything away in the years ahead.

Nice to meet you. I organise the programme and teach some classes.

Unlike Shifu, I was the unlikeliest person for internal martial arts: a stiff weightlifter crippled by chronic pain, an overthinking Goldman Sachs lawyer chasing hedonistic highs, unable to access inner peace.

It wasn't working. So I left and poured my life into meditation and martial arts. Since 2019, I've trained full time — Shaolin Temple Europe, nearly a year in the Wudang Mountains, masters across China.

As soon as I found Gulun Kung Fu and Shifu Wu Nanfang, I knew this was it. The practice touched the deepest place within me. I've studied one-on-one with him since September 2024 — the first Westerner to do so.

I hope my story shows that anyone with dedication can transform — including those who think they're too busy, lack discipline, or don't have the right body for martial arts.

What Practitioners Are Saying

Chris
19 years martial arts · 9 years teaching
“I have been interested in Gulun Kung Fu since 2010. I scoured the internet for everything I could find: video clips, documentaries, forums, books, DVDs. I have been waiting a long time for online lessons to become available. The spiralling, continuous, rolling movements that flow together harmoniously call to me. Every week I look forward to class. It is a rare opportunity to be part of an intimate group practising such a unique style from a prestigious lineage.”
Matthias
Chinese medicine practitioner
“GuLun Kung Fu offers something most styles can no longer deliver: an authentic, precise transmission that transforms the body, mind, and heart of a sincere practitioner. Through the standing practices and body methods taught by Shifu Wu Nanfang and Ben, I was able to resolve shoulder issues that had troubled me for more than 20 years.”
Deianira
Mother
“I searched for something that authentically brings together Chan and Kung Fu. When I found this style, I immediately knew — this was the one. When this online group opened, it felt like one of the greatest blessings of my life. Despite having children and only being able to train online, I have made life-changing progress.”
Oriol
Spain
“The first time I saw videos of Gulun Kung Fu on YouTube, I was deeply captivated. I had practised other styles of Kung Fu and Tai Chi, but what I saw there was different: a harmonious, fluid, elegant movement, full of visible energy and with a spiritual quality that fascinated me. The online classes provide corrections, personal supervision, and new perspectives. Despite the distance, the precision of the instructions makes it feel almost no different from an in-person class.”
“I literally cried with gratitude. It felt like one of the most beautiful moments of my life.” — Michal
“I honestly can’t imagine life without the practice.” — John
“This is the real deal.” — Petya
“World-class content.” — Georg
“The most precious and authentic gem of Shaolin culture.” — Matthias
“A wonderful open door that you just have to walk through.” — Marion
“An entire system I’ve always been searching for.” — Nathan
“There is something very powerful and challenging in this practice. I cannot say what makes me wake up at 5:45am to join.” — Mafalda
Shifu Wu Nanfang is 63.
He wants to transmit everything in the next five years. This is the first time this opportunity has arisen. And it won't happen again. The lineage is open.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between the programmes?
Your First Practice is free — eight exercises, twenty minutes, everything you need to establish a daily practice. The Full Foundation is $97 once — the complete eighteen-exercise foundational system we train every day at the Academy, with lifetime access. Enter the Lineage runs Chinese New Year to Chinese New Year. The 2026 year opened at $600. Because the year is already underway, it is $400 to join now, and $300 if you have booked a retreat or come to train with us in China.
Can internal arts really be transmitted online?
If you use your heart, you can overcome all obstacles. Many of our online students have attained a higher level of Gulun Kung Fu than those training in-person for many months. The crucial factor? Personal corrections in live classes.
How much time does this take?
Twenty minutes daily for the free practice. Thirty for the full foundation. Plus one live class a week if you can make it. Recordings if you can't. Consistency matters far more than duration. Twenty minutes every morning beats two hours on a Sunday.
I'm not flexible. I'm not young. Can I start?
Yes. This practice is slow, low-impact and internal. Unlike most Shaolin practices, this is better suited to adults than kids.
What if it isn't for me?
Follow the training plan for ninety days. Practise consistently, attend the live classes, submit videos for feedback. If you do that and you're not satisfied, we return your money.
