During the Allen McLean Hall's renovation then traffic and access difficulties due to Victorian Level Crossing removals, access to the Allen McLean Hall will be difficult at best, sometimes impossible, and parking not at all. According to an overview, McDonald Street in Mordialloc and Station Street in Aspendale with major construction beginning early 2024. Completion date is expected in 2026. Shaolin Academy will not survive two years at this location, like many other businesses who have shut down because of level crossing removals.
After near 26 years at Mordialloc, we say goodbye to the Allen McLean Hall and move to the Cheltenham (Mentone) Community Center, 1218 Nepean Highway, and will continue training as usual from Tuesday 11 February 6pm (Wednesday, Thursday, and Saturday 10.30am! Please, make the effort to try the new venue even if it is extra travel time.

Principles and visions are all good and well and are the guiding force but when it comes down to business, we need clear and precise statements of intent and operations to comply with legal requirements. For this reason there are a number of documents that guide our operation in specific areas. For the verbalization and testing of these guides we thank the MAIA and Walt Missingham for the most.
