The Shaolin Cultural Center in Artemis once again confirmed its position as a leading institution for the dissemination of the Authentic Shaolin Culture in Greece. On Saturday, April 12, 2025, the official evaluations of the graduates of the Shaolin Center “Aristomachos”, Christidis Vasiliki Iliana and Michalopoulos Nikos, were successfully held.

The evaluations were held under the auspices of the Greek Shaolin Cultural Organization (EPOS) and constituted another important milestone in the process of recognizing and strengthening the Shaolin presence in Greece.

Rigorous and Comprehensive Process

The evaluation process was rigorous and scientifically documented. It was based on a well-structured system of criteria inspired by the Shaolin Kung Fu teaching materials developed by the EPOS, in full alignment with the examination program of the Greek Wushu – Kung Fu Federation. This alignment ensures the validity of the evaluations and highlights the Organization’s deep commitment to maintaining high standards of education, not only in physical technique but also in the spiritual cultivation that is the foundation of Shaolin culture.

Highly Prestigious Committee

The evaluation was carried out in accordance with the regulations of the EPOS and under the supervision of a committee of distinguished teachers. The chairman of the committee was Master Master Stavridis Iordanis, Founder of EPOS, a leading figure in the field of teaching and dissemination of Shaolin in Greece and members were:

Banner Andrew of «WHITE LOTUS»

Kokkalas Lambros of Shaolin Cultural Center Heavenly Dragon

Antonio Efi of K.S. "WIND"

Kapatsoulias Panagiotis and Instructor Karoumbali Christina of the Phoenix Shaolin Center

The overall supervision was entrusted to Master Katakalaios Dimitrios.

The presence of this committee guarantees the impartiality, consistency and high quality of the process, creating a framework for continuous upgrading and reliability in the Organization's educational approach.

The success of Christidi Vasiliki Iliana and Michalopoulos Nikos reflects the seriousness of the educational process offered by the Artemis Shaolin Center and the “Aristomachos” school. At the same time, it underlines the continuous progress and strengthening of the presence of the Greek Shaolin Organization at the national level. Evaluations such as this are not just individual successes – they are steps that strengthen the broader vision of the Greek Shaolin Cultural Organization for quality, comprehensive and deep cultural education on the path of the Shaolin arts. Said the President of the Greek Shaolin Organization, Master Katakalaios Dimitris, after the completion of the evaluation.
