Shaolin Warriors
Don't try this at home.
Overview
As a kid, did you ever practice for hours on end in front of your favourite Bruce Lee film or dream of being the next Karate Kid? Maybe you watched Kill Bill and couldn't take your eyes off Kung Fu master Pai Mei. If you're still throwing kicks in front of your mirror and dreaming of wearing a black belt, maybe it's time for some fresh inspiration.
Twenty-two of the world's greatest Kung Fu masters, the Shaolin Warriors, are on their way to New Zealand to show you how it's really done.
One of the oldest institutionalised styles of Chinese martial arts, Shaolin originated and was developed over 1500 years in the Buddhist Shaolin temple in China.
The story of a young child's initiation into the monastery, the latest Shaolin Warrior show follows his journey to becoming a fully-fledged warrior. Expect to have your breath taken away - these guys not only display extreme physical endurance and agility, they smash marble slabs with their heads and balance sharp metal spares.
This is a show for all ages, so bring the little ones along and give them something to dream of as they head off to sleep. You'll also be able to finally get them to clean your car…wax on, wax off.
