i really dont know anything about training in the shaolin temple, but what i can suggest is that you might start training in some dojos near your area. if im not mistaken, shaolins doesnt only train for martial arts but they live as monks

I am pretty sure that if you go before the abbot of the temple and ask for him to teach you shaolin kungfu, he will teach you if he thinks you are a good person, I also believe that you must live as one of the monks in order to learn, waking up at 5:30 AM and training and meditating till around noon, I'm sure it's very worth it though. and you now what, you're not really and outsider, shaolin came from India! hope this is some help
