My friends and I were in Awe! Such an amazing performance
The Shaolin Warriors was entertaining and breath taking. The acrobatics and physical stamina these monks have is unbelieveable. They also allowed members of the audience to take part in the show, which was hilarious.
I was expecting a demonstration as opposed to a "show". Very entertaining and amazing feats mastered by each of the warriors. The two little boys were truly spectacular. The warriors exemplify true strenght, concentration, and remarkable ability, along with the hollywood style of entertainment. great to watch.
When I was watching the Shaolin Warriors, I wanted to get up and move with them. I was taken by their grace and wish I could look as good as them when I moved. It was so cool when they took kids (including female's) from the audience to learn one of their movement styles. Watching the audience members on stage made me laugh, that was wonderful. I had a lot of fun watching the Shaolin Warriors show. I would do it again.
Good audience interaction despite the language barrier. Grounded in Buddhism and strict discipline, may this class act remind the younger generation of martial arts practitioners that beneath the glitz and commercialism of today's "mixed martial arts" are monks in China who have continued to preserve the essence of this style of self-defense even in today's modern world. As a former kung fu student, it was a refreshing experience to watch this show live and in person instead of on the movie screen with all the obvious props and fakery. Only complaint was the omission of any of the "pole" events such as "high on the pole" and "soaring in the sky" in the Hawaii productions.
I thought that it was pretty good and fun. Although the music made me tired at the end.
The show was awesome. The demonstration of acrobatic moves and strength was a good show of the real style of Kung Fu. Its amazing what a person can do when there mind and body are focused on it. This is show the major difference between the way we train as Americans and how the Chinese train. Anyone looking for a great show and a great time should go. It is worth the money.
We are so glad we decided to go at the last minute. Getting tickets on line and picking them up at the box office was a breeze. The show was magnificent. Such talent and power in the cast. It was particularly great that they involved the audience. The children will never forget.
Overall, the show was entertaining. However, I expected to see what was in the program that I purchased for $10. To my disappointment they deviated from most of the book.
Talented, amazing, and spectacular! These men (and some young boys) are talented beyond belief. The acrobats, battle type scenes, and visuals were beautiful.
Shaolin Warriors was a fun event filled with high energy, amazing strength and grace. My husband and i enjoyed it!
It is unbelievable to watch what these men and children do.
A must see. My son enjoyed it so much. This was definitely a family affair.
The Shaolin Warriors performance was no less than outstanding. I got chicken skin the moment they stepped on stage in their trademark orange robes. They showed me what is possible through years of physical, mental, and spiritual training. Beyond feats of strength and flexibility, the Shaolin Warriors do their best to show the world what is possible through the power of "chi" or "qi" but channeling their inner energy to protect their skin from being pierced by knives, spears, and boards of nails. This was an extrodanary show that I would recommend to all my friends and family. It was worth every penny.
Awesome spectacle of Kung fu! The monks really showed the true art of wushu.
AMAZING, AMAZING, AMAZING!! My family enjoyed this show to the fullest. Their strength and skills were beyond all of our expectations! Anyone who goes to see this will be held captivated from the start!!
there are few words to truly describe the Shaolin Warriors. An amazing once-in-a-lifetime experience. They are inspirational!
The show was amazing. The warriors showed off their mastery of wushu, while also performing incredible feats of strength and toughness. The entire show was entertaining and I would absoultely recommend it to friends and family. The Warriors rock!!!
Everything was nicely choreographed with subtle storylines. Did not know what to expect but found the performance very entertaining. Would highly recommend persons of any age to go and see the monks perform. Its not often you get to see this type of high quality martial arts in a performance. The music is a little lacking in diversity but is sufficient for their purpose.
