The Real Discipline

Master Shi Miao Hai has been training in the Shaolin tradition since the age of 8. His expertise is not built on academic study, but on decades of daily, physical repetition. He embodies the “Silent Power” of a master — one who leads by example rather than slogans.

Master Shi Miao Hai

Choosing to teach from his heart, Shi Miao Hai focuses on the authentic essence of the art. He offers students a rare opportunity to strip away modern distractions and connect with the raw fundamentals of mind and body. In his presence, Kung Fu is a reminder of choosing the hard path that lasts.

What Our Students Say

"Training in China”

I heard about Kung Fu training in China from a friend, so after finishing school I thought why not give it a try? I was 19 at the time, 7 years later I can say it was the most impactful experience of my life. The most impressive thing next to Shifu's skills of course, were the chinese kids we are training together. Some of them became really good friends now, I actually started speaking Chinese because of them. Kung Fu has become a big part of my life now, I have started to apply everything I learned in my life. Playing piano, doing sports or reading, I discovered a new perspective to awareness in everyday life. Traditional eastern culture and wisdom has a lot to offer to western people. Maybe we see each other in China one day!

“A Memory for Life”

I never expected that those few weeks at the school of Master Shi Miao Hai would become some of the most memorable moments of my life. I met people and friends I never expected, and I felt like part of a family. The hard training especially gave me a sense of purpose again — simply waking up every day and giving it your best. The environment you're in shapes you, and this place truly helped me think more clearly, focus, and learn how to deal with stress and pain. If you're looking for change, for something completely new, and to experience life in another way, this is the right place. A place where you can create timeless memories that stay with you forever.
