Martial Arts in Houston

Well a friend of mine asked me this past weekend where in Houston particulary in Houston Chinatown can he find a great Houston martial arts school to learn some kung fu. There are alot of places that they so call teach "martial arts" or "kung fu", but who are these teachers anyways. I know of this place that has a well known and reputable martial arts master, shifu Shi Xing Ying. Master Shi Xing Ying is a 32nd generation disciple of the Henan Shaolin Temple in China. He began studying Shaolin Kung Fu at the age of 6. Shortly thereafter, 31st generation monks Shi De Yu and Shi De Ren accepted him as a disciple and gave him the Buddhist name Shi Xing Ying. By 11-years-old, Shi Xing Ying had mastered the Shaolin curriculum and was qualified as one of the very few instructors allowed to instruct Shaolin Martial Arts on behalf of the Shaolin Temple. In 1994, Master Shi Xing Ying won the honorable title of The Grand Champion of The Shaolin International Festival Competition of China.

So who can argue with his title. Anyways, I told my friend to go to the International Shaolin Center, phone number (713) 272-0276, and go learn from them. They are the best in Houston. So for everyones information, this is the place to learn marital arts, kung fu.
