Why Most Martial Artists Plateau
Most practitioners spend years learning forms, kicks and techniques before building the foundation those skills require. Without it, every new movement is a struggle β and every plateau feels like a ceiling you can't break through.
- βPoor flexibility limits kick height and stance depth
- βWeak stances collapse under real pressure
- βSlow progress despite years of training
- βRecurring joint and muscle injuries
- βFrustration from feeling stuck
- βNo clear path forward
"100 Foundational Movements develops the exact mobility, strength, coordination and body mechanics that Shaolin training is built upon. It is the foundation that every other skill rests on."
This is not a collection of drills. It is a complete, progressive system β the same one used inside traditional Shaolin schools β that prepares your body for every technique you will ever learn.
After This Course You'll Be Able To
Not just practise Shaolin β but feel the difference in your body every time you train.
Hold deeper stances with less effort
Hips, knees and ankles trained to support real Shaolin structure β not just temporarily forced into position.
Kick higher with greater control

Improve flexibility safely
The correct joint-by-joint sequencing that reduces injury risk and produces lasting, functional flexibility.
Move faster and more fluidly
Coordination, body awareness and explosive power trained together β the hallmarks of a real Shaolin practitioner.

Become a real practitioner
This is the difference between someone who does martial arts and someone who actually trains Shaolin. This course builds the latter.

Enrol Now Β· $249Why Shifu Shi Yan Jin Created This Course
After 30+ years of Shaolin practice β and more than two decades teaching students worldwide β Shifu Shi Yan Jin noticed the same problem, again and again.
Students were training the wrong things first. They were jumping into forms and advanced techniques without ever building the body that those techniques demand. The result: years of effort with little real progress, injuries that shouldn't happen, and frustration that leads most people to quit.
These 100 movements were not chosen at random. Over decades of teaching, Shifu Shi Yan Jin identified the exact movements β in the exact sequence β that prepare an adult body for genuine Shaolin training. Joints first. Then conditioning. Then flexibility. Then leg power. Then stances and strikes. Then, finally, aerial techniques and throws.
That sequence is the course. Nothing is missing. Nothing is in the wrong order. And for the first time, it is available to practitioners anywhere in the world.
Six Categories. 100 Movements. One Foundation.
Carefully sequenced from easiest to most demanding β the way it is actually taught inside the Shaolin tradition. Each category builds directly on the last.
Joint Activation
ε ³θζ΄»ε¨
Wrists, knees, hips, spine, chest, shoulders, neck β opened in the correct order before any hard training. This is how Shaolin athletes train injury-free for decades.
Conditioning & Explosive Power
ηθΊ«δΈεΊη‘ει
Horse Stance jumps, Tuck jumps, High Knees, Vertical Jumps β functional strength and explosive capacity that powers every technique you will ever learn.
Flexibility & Coordination
η΅ζ΄»ζ§δΈεθ°ζ§
Side splits, front splits, pike stretches, back bends and coordination drills. The flexibility work that unlocks head-height kicks and deep stances most practitioners never achieve.
Leg Techniques
θ Ώε
Front kicks, side kicks, back kicks, inside and outside crescent kicks, hook kicks and whip kicks β the full Shaolin kicking arsenal with correct mechanics and power generation.
Stances, Strikes & Footwork
ζ‘©ε Β· ηζ
Horse, Bow, Empty and Drop Stance β held, drilled and strengthened. Combined with close-range hand techniques and rooted footwork that transfers to every form you will learn.
Aerial Techniques & Throws
θ·³θ·ιΎεΊ¦ Β· ζζ³
Jump kicks, 360Β° spinning kicks, aerial lotus kicks, sweeps and takedowns. The advanced movements approached only after the correct foundation is fully in place.
100 Foundational Movements vs. Random YouTube Videos
There is a difference between practising movements and building a foundation. One produces results. The other produces frustration.
| Random YouTube Videos | 100 Foundational Movements | |
|---|---|---|
| Progression | β Random, no logical order | β 100 movements in the exact teaching sequence |
| Instructor | β Unknown background, unverified lineage | β 34th Generation Shaolin Disciple, 8th Duan |
| Corrections | β None β you won't know you're doing it wrong | β Every movement includes common mistakes and fixes |
| Complete system | β Gaps everywhere, missing entire categories | β Six complete categories, nothing missing |
| Production quality | β Variable, often poor audio and camera work | β Studio HD video, professional HQ audio |
| Structured learning | β No structure, no path, no plan | β Clear progression from day one to advanced |
| Long-term development | β Builds bad habits that limit your ceiling | β Builds the foundation that compounds for decades |
Every Movement is Chosen for a Reason
Shifu Shi Yan Jin selected these 100 from 30+ years of practice. Nothing random. Every movement connects to the next.
Gaze & Eye Training
Overlooked by almost every course. The Shaolin tradition trains where and how you look β before training what you do.
Five Core Stances
Horse, Bow, Empty, Drop and Cross Stance β held, drilled and strengthened so forms feel natural instead of forced.
Full Kicking Arsenal
Front, side, back, inside crescent, outside crescent, hook, whip β all kicks with correct power mechanics.
Throws & Takedowns
Shaolin is a complete system. Sweep, trip and throw mechanics are part of the foundation β not an optional extra.
Aerial Techniques
Jump front kick, 360 heel kick, aerial lotus kick and more. Introduced progressively, only after prerequisites are solid.
Error Corrections
Common mistakes explained for each movement. You'll know exactly what goes wrong and how to fix it before it becomes a habit.
Thousands of Students. One Foundation.
From complete beginners to experienced practitioners β this is what happens when you train the right things in the right order.
"I've been training martial arts for 6 years and this was the first time someone actually explained why I was doing each movement. My kicks improved more in two weeks than they had in the past year."
"The error corrections alone are worth the price. I didn't realise how many habits I'd built up over the years that were holding me back. Everything clicked after the stances section."
"I can finally do a proper side split after years of trying. The flexibility sequence is unlike anything I've seen β it's logical, not just 'stretch and hold.' The production quality alone puts it above anything else online."

Questions Answered
Do I need to be an experienced martial artist?
No. The course is designed for adults of any level. The first category covers joint warm-up and gentle mobility β appropriate for a complete beginner. Difficulty increases progressively through six categories, so you advance at your own pace without skipping steps.
I already train Kung Fu. Is this useful for me?
Especially for you. Most experienced practitioners discover movements and mechanics they were either performing incorrectly or skipping entirely. The error corrections section is particularly valuable for anyone with ingrained habits. Many students report breakthroughs after years of plateauing.
How is this different from YouTube?
Sequencing. YouTube gives you individual movements with no logical connection. This course covers all 100 in the exact order they build on each other β joint work before conditioning, conditioning before kicks, kicks before aerial techniques. That sequence is what produces real results instead of random drilling.
How much time do I need per session?
As little as 20β30 minutes per movement category. There is no minimum β move through the material at whatever pace fits your schedule. Lifetime access means there is no rush, no pressure and no expiry date.
Are the lessons in English?
Yes. The course is taught by Shifu Shi Yan Jin in Chinese with complete English subtitles on every lesson. Every instruction, correction and coaching point is fully translated.
What if I can't do the harder movements yet?
Expected and normal β the advanced categories (aerials, throws) are there to work towards progressively, not complete on day one. Shifu Shi Yan Jin addresses this directly in the course and explains the exact prerequisites for each movement. The point is to have the full, correct progression in one place.
How do I get access after purchasing?
Immediately. Once your payment is confirmed you receive access to the full course β all 100 movements, all six categories. You can start your first lesson within minutes of enrolling.
