Kung fu looks to fight off competition

The Shaolin Temple in China's Henan Province was founded in 495 AD and
is the home of Shaolin Kung Fu. A practice that combines martial arts
with Zen Buddhism.

People travel from around the world to be trained by its monks but
some fear younger generations are turning to other fighting styles
like Mixed Martial Arts.

But those that have studied the craft say Kung fu remains the ideal
escape from the modern day hustle and bustle.

William Denselow reports from Henan Province in China.
