Follow grandmaster Steve DeMasco on his unprecedented, unforgettable pilgrimage to the Shaolin Temple in China.

In An American’s Journey to the Shaolin Temple, Steve DeMasco shares the story of his ascension to the rank of 10th-degree black belt in Shaolin kempo and how he became an honorary ambassador to the legendary Shaolin Temple in mainland China.

DeMasco demonstrates exercises for beginning and intermediate students, reveals the long-guarded secrets of the black-tiger form of kung fu, and exposes the mythical iron-wire form – one of the most advanced and difficult forms practiced by Shaolin kung fu masters. Within this book lies knowledge that many seek but few attain.

Black Belt Hall of Fame member Steve DeMasco describes his journey to the temple in an engaging, easy-to-read style. He relates his meeting with the Shaolin masters and explains for the first time how the Chinese masters view American practitioners of their arts.

An American’s Journey to the Shaolin Temple is a must-read for Shaolin enthusiasts and anyone with an interest in the Chinese martial arts.
