About Buddha Zhen:
Named, Zhen Shen-Lang, "Spirit Wolf of Truth," in 1993 by the Chen family, from Mt. Wudang (Wutang), Buddha Zhen has been teaching Shaolin Kung Fu and Yang Style Tai Chi since 1992. An ardent disciple of Shaolin Kung Fu from 1980 to 1991, Buddha Zhen was not intending to be a teacher. School brothers and Shifu would attend Shaolin Kung Fu classes at his North Hollywood condo from 1986 to 1991 which were offered to the interns of Shaolin Records for free, on a daily basis. Although Buddha Zhen, then known as Richard O'Connor, sometimes passed out some basic literature about Shaolin Kung Fu to these students, he also did not plan to write books about Kung Fu. Buddha Zhen was pursuing physics, Zen Buddhism, and launching Shaolin Records. Buddha Zhen founded the Shaolin Chi Mantis Traditional Buddhist Gongfu and Taijiquan school in 1992. In 1996 Buddha Zhen founded the Tai Chi Youth nonprofit education schools. In 2008 Buddha Zhen founded the Buddha Kung Fu schools and launched a new program, the 12 Step 12 Week Kung Fu Bootcamp. Buddha Zhen taught at the YWCA for several years in Utah, and has taught at the YMCAs in Los Angeles from 2003 to 2010.

Buddha Zhen is producing a huge series of 66 videos and dvds for Tai Chi Youth to reach students and youth at risk worldwide. These videos will also be available as online group classes as Buddha Zhen conducts private and group lessons over the internet at shaolinINTERACTIVE.com
