SHI DE YANG 释德扬
Grand Master, Shaolin monk of the 31st generation, Shi De Yang is globally considered one of the greatest present exponents of traditional Shaolin culture.
Disciple of Shi Suxi for almost 30 years, Shi De Yang is one of few Shaolin Masters of recent generations to have studied in a profound manner all 'three treasures of Shaolin' (Chan, Wugong, traditional medicine). This traditional knowledge, aptitude to studying and teaching, exceptional martial abilities and philosophical vision, have allowed him to have some of the more prominent roles in the Temple, from head of the warrior monks to history researcher, from philosophy teacher to director of traditional Kung Fu WuShu studies.
Books and documentaries have been made about him, however despite the international fame Shi De Yang continues to reside in the Shaolin temple, absorbed in his studies and teaching. To the activities at the Temple Shi De Yang has for some years added the management of his external school, which welcomes about one hundred young students, often very poor, to whom he offers a study program that includes Kung Fu WuShu and Chan.
Shi De Yang has also conducted numerous international teaching and demonstration tours to promote Shaolin culture. He regularly travels to Europe and America to visit his Shaolin brothers now living abroad, and collaborates with various schools. Shi De Yang is 'technical and spiritual guide' of the school Shaolin Wuseng Houbeidui - Europe (Italy), the only official international branch of his Shaolin school, managed by his disciples Shi Xing Mi and Shi Xing Cang.
