2010 International Shaolin Wuzuquan Federation Competition
At the end of the Conference and Competition, visitors to Quanzhou were invited to visit the Southern Shaolin Temple. At the temple, students from the Australian school, were invited to demonstrate their sanchin (aka san zhan) stance against the Shaolin monks.
Master James’ students were able to demonstrate the solidity of their stance, and at one stage, four Australian students held their ground against fourteen Shaolin monks.

Master James was also again invited to demonstrate his qi gong ability. In addition to performing “empty pushing”, Master James also demonstrated a dim mak technique on (an unfortunate!) Peter Chee.

Following the demonstration, a couple of the Chinese students asked to “try” the strength of the Australian students. Dr Michael Fong happily volunteered and demonstrated his ability to hold down his opponent using only two fingers.
As the second Chinese student was a lot smaller than Michael, Master James volunteered Julie, who also demonstrated superior strength attained from years of training under Master James.
