The 12 Tantui taught at Buddha Kung Fu, are the "Springy Leg" drills taken from the Muslim Chinese.
"Most of the best Kung Fu in Northern China comes from the Hui, or Muslim Chinese," Buddha Zhen explained to his class. One of these 12 Tantui is taught each month at Buddha Kung Fu with the Tantui number corresponding to the number of each month. March is the 3rd month of the year, so this month the Buddha Kung Fu classes will be learning Tantui 3.

of the Zen Buddhist Podcast
hosted by Master Zhen
of the shaolinZEN.org Cybertemple.
Master Zhen Shen-Lang,
founder of the shaolinZEN.org CyberTemple
leads Buddhist Zen lessons to be aired and brodcast over the internet discussing Chinese Chan Buddhism from the Shaolin Zen CyberTemple Sangha.
"Buddha Kung Fu, my new Buddhist Kung Fu School."
January 2008 was the birth of Buddha Kung Fu. Created by Master Zhen Shen-Lang from the preexisting curriculums of Shaolin Chi Mantis Traditional Buddhist Gongfu schools, the goal of Buddha Kung Fu is to create more Buddhas.
"My Buddhism was prominent in all my Kung Fu and Tai Chi classes," explains Master Zhen, "Spirit Wolf of Truth." "Now, it's nice to promote Buddhism in the title of my school."
Master Zhen discusses the origins of Kung Fu and Zen Buddhism by founder, Bodhidharma. Kalaripayattu may have been the East Indian martial art that began Zen Buddhism at the Shaolin Temple in China.
Podcast Host: Master Zhen "Spirit Wolf of Truth"
Dharma Online: Shaolin Zen CyberTemple
BUDDHISM DHARMA FOR TODAY:
"Zen Buddhism was created to revitalize the mind and body to achieve enlightenment."
Master Zhen explains his new theories of the origin of Zen Buddhism.
