		I have always wanted to learn Shaolinquan since reading Sifu's " The Art Of Shaolin Kung Fu " a few years ago, but most of my early attempts were futile for various reasons, such as inexperience with Chinese Martial Arts, the inability to generate Chi Flow and doubt.
		I was very lucky to have watched Sifu training the Shaolinquan students during one of the Intensive Course sessions, and believe me, I made mental notes (I know its not the same as actually doing it).
		Shaolinquan patterns are very much alive and can adapt to meet the situation, but even in combat they look very much like they do in the classical forms.

		Now, at the highest levels of Taijiquan and Shaolinquan, there is probably a convergence (I do not know this for sure), in that both are hard and soft.
		In Thieu Lam school webpages (in Finnish only) the main difference between Shaolinquan and Taijiquan is said to be noi gong, which is a part of mind training: in Taijquan that noi gong part is more emphasized.
		The health benefits of genuine Shaolinquan are at least equal to, and arguably much greater than those of Taijiquan.
