About Grandmaster Song

Grandmaster Song, 34th Generation Shaolin Master

Grandmaster Song's Dharma name is Shì Guǒ Sōng (釋果松).

The legendary Grandmaster Shi Guosong began his martial arts career as a child during the rebuilding of Shaolin culture in the early 1980s.

Through his dedication and passion into the Shaolin arts, he gained the respect of the temple and his peers, and became the Chief Warrior Coach.

Today, you can still find Shaolin Temple instructional DVDs in China that feature our Grandmaster.

In 1997, Grandmaster Shi Guosong came to Canada to establish Shaolin culture and martial arts. Master Dao was one of his very first students who eventually became his disciple and opened this downtown Toronto school.

You can learn more about our Grandmaster through our affiliated Shaolin Luohan Temple website:
