Description

Embark on a journey into the heart of Southern Shaolin Kungfu with Master Yap Boh Heong as your guide. In this comprehensive online course, you will delve deep into the ancient art of San Zhan, also known as the “Three Battles,” a foundational form revered for its effectiveness in developing internal power.

In the Chee Kim Thong lineage of 5 Ancestors that Master Yap inherited, each of the 5 Ancestors has their own San Zhan form. For example, Tai Zu, LuoHan, White Crane, and Monkey each have their own San Zhan forms. However, the form being taught in this course is that of the fifth ancestor, DaMo. The fifth ancestor contributes the internals of the art and is considered the highest level. Therefore, the San Zhan taught in this course is the San Zhan form attributed to Bodhidharma, the “Great Patriarch” and founder of “Chan (later known as Zen) Buddhism.”

In Shaolin, it is said that the San Zhan form is the first form you learn, and until the day you die, you will still be learning from practicing it; meaning that the form has a profound level of depth. In the beginning, you first learn the choreography of the movements, then at a higher level, you learn the martial expressions and applications, and at the highest level, the form is used for internal development.

San Zhan, although rooted in Southern Shaolin tradition, holds a universal appeal, practiced not only within the Southern Shaolin arts but also across various Karate styles. Its popularity underscores its significance as a fundamental form embodying the essence and secrets of Southern Shaolin.

About Yap Boh Heong

Yap Boh Heong is a 3rd generation Kungfu master with nearly 50 years of experience in Southern Shaolin Kungfu, Traditional Chinese Martial Arts (TCMA), and Nei Gong. He is the son of the late Grandmaster Yap Cheng Hai, an internationally renowned master of Kungfu and feng shui.

Master Yap has acquired extensive knowledge and understanding of Shaolin Kungfu and especially the internal martial arts of Five Ancestors, WuMei, and Yan Shou Gong. He has spent the past ten years researching and developing a new teaching pedagogy (TCMA) that makes sophisticated concepts easy to understand and accelerates learning. While it would traditionally take ten years for a new student to achieve proficiency in TCMA, it can now be achieved in three years using these new methods. Since he began teaching with these new methods, he has produced several highly skilled and capable students, proficient in using their internal energies, such as Jin and Yi.

Although his initial focus was on the martial aspects of TCMA, he has also focused on the health and well-being aspect after seeing how it can help others improve their lives. He now actively teaches Yan Shou Gong (YSG), an authentic Nei Gong taught previously to only the most senior monks in Southern Shaolin Temple.

Since the passing of GM Yap Cheng Hai and GM Chee Kim Thong, Master Yap Boh Heong has taken over the mantle and is actively teaching and spreading the benefits of Yan Shou Gong to the world. He recently began teaching internationally in Europe, conducting courses and workshops in the Netherlands, Germany, the UK, Sweden, Denmark, Singapore, Thailand, and Indonesia.
