On May 1, 2019, I’ve learned about the Shaolin Temple and the monks. In class, we watched a documentary on how the monks trained and lived as well as how they trained their students who could be as young as 7 years old. Students who came to the temple lived there until they became an adult. They lived together and trained daily. They practiced different fighting styles and practiced different routines. They ran together and meditated together.
I’ve learned that martial arts are not simply about fighting but it can also be about finding your purpose in life as well as understanding the world around you along with the people around you.
