About the Shaolin Team Canada Wushu Festival Final

The Shaolin Team Canada Wushu Festival is a celebration of what we call, the Shaolin Spirit.

The inaugural festival was held in November of 2019 where we saw 43 athletes compete in 142 events. Roughly one third were taolu forms, and the rest were timed events that require martial skills.

What makes our festival in Canada unique is the idea that everyone wins a medal. One quarter of the participants receive gold, another quarter receives silver, and the rest receives a bronze medal.

Competition certainly helps to raise the bar for Canadian talent, but celebrating the Shaolin Spirit, together, is what this festival is really all about.

And what is the Shaolin Spirit? It is the portrayal of the Shaolin Virtues that each athlete embodies - focus, perseverance, strive, respect, compassion, and leadership.

And these Canadian athletes become the greatest role models, for all of us to look up to.
