Traditional training, to us, means directly learned skills passed down from teacher to student, not made-up or mixed together styles, or video-trained instructors. The institute is currently accepting serious students who are interested in dedicating themselves to learning traditional Chinese Martial Arts of the Shaolin Kung fu lineage.
The Shaolin Kung fu Institute was established In 1972 by our Chief Instructor, Shifu Rex W. McCoy, a Bishi Disciple under the Grandmaster of this system, Grandmaster Chen, Qishi and as of 2022 has trained for 55 years in this style. He is also a Bishi Disciple under Master Zhang Yun in the Internal Arts of Northern Wu style Taiji. Our main headquarters, the Shen Long Tong, is in Hightstown NJ at our original location at 106 Mercer Street. We have since, over the years, opened numerous branch locations.

Our small classes provide personal attention for all students. Our staff is trained to recognize that all students are different. We observe all students for their strengths and difficulties, and then take the time to help students through areas which are difficult for them, while also encouraging them to excel where they are skilled. Our art is self-defense orientated it is not a sport and we do not teach tournament skills.
