Kungfu is simply a term of martial arts in Cantonese, same as Wushu in Mandarin. Martial arts long existed in China before the arrival of Buddhism. Shaolin Kungfu just happens to be the most prominent because the mix of religion, mythology and martial arts gave this mystic image. Fact is Shaolin Kungfu, while pleasing to look at, is not the most effective close combat system.
