travel and kung fu

[b silver]

Does anyone know of a monastery where one can stay and learn/ practice kung fu. I've heard of retreats in Thailand where one can stay and learn to meditate but that's all. Any ideas would be useful. Thanks.

There are several throughout the United States and overseas. One of the most well known in the U.S. of course is the Wah Lum Temple in Florida. www.wahlum.com

My current sifu was a former Wah Lum live in student. It cost him plenty of $$$ to go that route but the training he got said it was worth the cost at the time.

Yeah, my sigung lived and taught there for several years, I've never heard him talk about the money, but I'm sure it takes lots of it to live and train anywhere.

I am sure that there are places to live and study. Here in the Philippines, I have met guys from the USA and Europe who are studying chinese martial arts under the instruction of masters here. They are paying for a lot of training. It may not be a temple, but the quality of training is excellent.

There are live in training places in china as well such as here. There are several like this that you live at, learn kung fu and even languages as well. Pretty pricy, but some aren't too bad.
