Historical Martial Arts Magazine
Dr Uwe Schwenk will be releasing volume one of his reknowned Historical Martial Arts Magazine, in which he collates and presents his vast collection of historical Shaolin documents.
Having studied martial arts for a few decades now, he has accumulated a large collection of historical papers and photographs, some of them dating to 1920 and before. Since these materials are not in the best condition, a few years ago, he started the project of converting everything into digital format in order to protect the material and have it available in the future. Since this project is mostly completed now, with this magazine, he will begin to make the material available to a wider audience.
The bi-monthly Historical Martial Arts Magazine - Techniques and Philosophy (ISSN 2159-2497) is presented only as a means of preserving unique aspects of the heritage of the martial arts.
Issue 1 is available at Uwe Schwenk Historical Martial Arts Magazine.
Martial artists receive a 50% discount.

A web site that finds its origins back in 1995, with initial publication in early 1996. Millions of viewers, thousands of members, hundreds of pages, hundreds of multimedia presentations, and a large group of dedicated contributors. All from a group of people with diverse relevant contacts and interests. A site distributed over three separate domains, and multiple hosting servers.
It started as a personal look at the inner workings of the Shaolin Temple, from the perspective of a solitary individual, an "insider". It has evolved into a compendium of information from diverse scholastic sources, all dedicated towards bringing forth an honest perspective of all things Shaolin.
No bullshit. No pomp. No grandmaster worship. Just an honest and occasionally irreverent perspective of the Shaolin Temple and its keepers.
Welcome to russbo.com. We hope you enjoy your stay here.
