LINEAGE
30TH GENERATION GRAND MASTER SHI SUXI (1924-2006) SHI SUXI
He was the ex-president of the Shaolin Temple and one of the last monks of the elder generations. He was revered for his knowledge and skill in both Martial Arts and Chan Buddhism. Shi Su Xi devoted 70 years of his life to the Shaolin Temple and endured many hardships in order to preserve the traditions of Shaolin.
31ST GENERATION GREAT MASTER SHI DEFON
Great Master Shi De Fon spent many years training under the guidance of Grand Master Shi Su Xi. He also studied under Shi Su Yun during his later years at the temple furthering his skills in Shaolin Kung Fu and Shaolin Medicine. Great Master Shi De Fon has a rich family history in Kung Fu as his grandfather and great grandfather were both Shaolin fighting monks. His great grand father Zhao Yu Fan was the last empress of China's head bodyguard and medical doctor. Zhao Yu Fan taught Yu Zhen Sheng (a leading exponent of Chaquan and Northern Shaolin) and Xu Gong Wei (a famous Chinese doctor and head instructor of Kung Fu for the Army at Nanjing city). Great Master Shi De Fon became an indoor disciple of Xu Gong Wei when he left the Shaolin Temple to pursue a degree in Traditional Chinese Medicine. Grand Master Shi De Fon is now considered a Shaolin Folk Master and currently holds a 7 Duan Wei by the Chinese Wushu Association.
32ND GENERATION GRAND MASTER SHIFU BRETT XING WU RUSSELL
He was instructed by Great Master Shi De Fon, lineage transmission disciple of Grand Master Shi Su Xi [Ex-President of the Shaolin Temple], and given the name Shi Xing Wu. After years of training, also meeting with other monk masters, Shi Xing Wu attained a very high level of Martial Arts. Master Shifu Shi Xing Wu is now ranked a 4th Duan Wei [Master Instructor] by the Chinese Wushu Association for Traditional Shaolin Temple Martial Arts and represents them in Australia. Master Shifu Shi Xing Wu has travelled the globe, learning, displaying and teaching Martial Arts and has gained worldwide recognition.
33RD GENERATION MASTER SHIFU PAUL YONG DA AHERN
Shifu Paul has been training under Master Shifu Brett for over fifteen years. Initially, practicing Kung Fu for Paul was to strengthen his body, to enhance his surfing and quality of life. In a short space of time, Paul was completely hooked, committed himself to the Traditional Shaolin Temple Kung Fu and successfully become a master. He now devotes all his spare time to teaching and perfecting his trade in Kung Fu.
