"A FULL GROWTH"
It is a proven method from the work of generations of Shaolin masters in favor of children novices. Apart from the martial skill, already included in the working system of the Baby Shaolin Kung-fu, there are a variety of purposes that affect the growth psycho -physiological and social development of children.
Baby Shaolin Kung-fu is a great way to foster self-confidence, encouraging the balanced use of its energy. Children are very encouraged by their success in overcoming trials previously considered insurmountable. As a result of a successful effort, is prize-esteem and self confidence. The Shaolin masters often repeat these words: "Fear is the enemy and trust is the armor, do you have to do with confidence, not running away at nothing, so you're ready for anything." To help children overcome a difficulties, they tell their stories and anecdotes of the East of monks, warriors and heroes who can be a role model to follow.
Another goal of the Baby Shaolin Kung-fu is improving concentration and self control, favoring the inner discipline. Children generally have a lot of energy but use it without drawing the maximum profit, where the elderly, tend to save money and use energy only with targeted goals. The discipline of Shaolin creates a symbiosis between the wisdom of the elderly and the impetuous energy of the young, for this reason the master disciple relationship is essential. The relationship to Shaolin "Master-Disciple" continues throughout life, and is marked by 'authority of teachers and humility of the learner. This system does not know vows or exams, but the thirst for knowledge and desire of the disciple of the Master's teaching. At Shaolin, who has found his master, and he is chosen according to criteria of character, will follow him throughout his life, to learn in everyday life, the harmony of body and spirit, the domain of matter and the fundamental principles of life and nature. This knowledge is comparable to the Instructions for use of a car. If we know a car ride well, this will be very useful, but if you do not know the danger will be taking the driving wheel. The wisdom suggests first of all self-control from which the silence, concentration, and finally the discovery of oneself. It's nice to see children who experience the steps of this ladder, and even adults are inspired by their innocence, their purity and irresistible tenderness.
Among the goals envisaged by Baby Shaolin Kung-fu, then there is the awareness of your body in space and with others, according to the principle of the Standard International Educational Jitakyoei, summarized in the aphorism: "I and others together in harmony ": this is the important factor that promotes the improvement of socialization through the contact and the respect of others. A very important thing that the child must learn is that the respect he demands from others, he should also offer others , as taught by the Shaolin masters: "Always remember that the wise man has respect for others. Walk head high but without arrogance. "Freedom of movement in their own space, it also means respecting the boundaries with that given to others, so the sensory and motor control in general, becomes a short-term goal in couples work. At the beginning is the Master, which shows the boundaries to be respected, but gradually the child will learn the discipline to manage themselves appropriately. The awareness of one's body, also includes the study of its limits during the periods presented in a gradation of effort and difficulty. This is important for the child to avoid the mistake of overestimating their abilities and to be injured during exercise. The relationship with her boyfriend, is based primarily on learning to accept one another, as it is, and on ' help each other improve. The child must learn to recognize, that his problems are those of all the suffering that others feel is similar to his. Rejoice in the suffering of others does not befit a noble-hearted, so one should not cause any suffering to their peers with naughty jokes aimed at having fun. The wisdom of Shaolin first of all teaches respect for life in all its forms.
The most important thing in the realization of the exercises is the realization of their psycho-physical energies. The Shaolin masters teach that all our energy we derive from the proper breathing. "Breathing is living. The flow of our lives we can direct our energy body and replenish the muscles. Therefore breath control is a prerequisite for the control of the body. "The energy with breathing is called Qi (Chinese:气), it is the source of health and physical strength. To strengthen this energy, the Shaolin Kung Baby Fu teaches children to receive from the earth, sky and air, with a slow, controlled breathing, focusing on the act breathing without distraction for a few minutes. Students learn to appreciate nature so well that surrounds them and contact with its harmonic components. With the exercises of Shaolin Kung-Fu Baby Children then learn to benefit from the control of its internal energy, to strengthen their bodies and their mental and physical strength. Indeed in Shaolin you think that those who practice the art of breath, can never reach a high rank in Kung-fu. As the saying goes: "Practicing kung-fu without practicing Qigong (Chinese:气功) is equivalent to not perform any kung-fu". Apparently for the development of a high level of kung-fu, these exercises so slow, are more important than spectacular stunts so popular in the West. Indeed, the mastery of his energy, help the children in the future in every field of activity . Through the practice of the exercises of Shaolin Kung-Fu Baby will recognize the accuracy and usefulness of the proverb: "Where to invest your energy, get results there."

The results, therefore, we can see that the oriental disciplines, are preparatory to the healthy development of the individual, both socially and spiritually. We often say that children are the future of society, therefore their education must contain the important that the Baby Shaolin Kung-fu recognizes principles:
