For more than 1,000 years, the Shaolin Monastery in China's Henan Province has been the heart and soul of spiritual and Kung-Fu (Shaolin Chuan) practices. Perfecting the art of Wushu exercises, hand-to-hand and weapons combat, the Shaolin warriors maintain a daily schedule of training for monks-- young and old. On their 2007 US tour and premier visit to the Fine Arts Center, they will showcase their versatile kicks, stunning flying swords, compact moves, and powerful martial arts prowess. A unique artistic performance not for the faint of heart! "They combine the agility and grace of gymnasts with the showmanship of Cirque du Soleil performers." The Washington Post
