So is Shaolin boxing a type of kung fu?

im confused. i%26#039;ve just started doing shaolin boxing.... could you call it kung fu aswell?|||shaolin boxing is simply another way of saying shaolin kung-fu. you could also call it shaolin chuan because chuan is mandarin/chinese for fist or boxing. chinese kung-fu is constantly referred to as chinese boxing. the only difference is there are literally thousands of king-fu styles in existence and counting so the forms, terminology, pronunciation and methods of fighting will have similarities and contrasts. typically a martial arts name is a synonym when it comes to chinese martial arts. join my group: allma or all martial arts|||I born japan, not speak chinese, my lover speak chinese and japanese, he say wu shu mean martial art, kung fu mean great achievement any fields maybe in martial art.
