Product Description

Product Description

Shaolin Kung-fu has been considered by many as the best martial art in the world. But Kungfu is just one of the 'three treasures' of Shaolin, the other two being Qigong and Zen. For the first time ever, this inspiring book, written by an internationally acclaimed Shaolin Grandmaster, brings to you the crystallisation of Shaolin wisdom and practice spanning many centuries. Its scope and depth is amazing, touching on, among many other things, poetry and enlightenment. Yet it is written in a language easy to understand. Profound concepts and difficult techniques are explained systematically with many illustrations. The book includes: The Background and Scope of Kungfu; Form and Combat applications; Principles and Methods of Force Training; Energy Training and Mind Training; Secrets of the Masters; Traditional Chinese Weapons; Maintaining one's Health and Vitality and the Healing of so-called incurable diseases; Interesting stories and Legends of Shaolin; Zen and Spiritual Development.

5.0 out of 5 stars WOW!, 3 Sep 2003
By M. J. Santer - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
An incredible book. I have spent years reading every source I can on the Shaolin arts. This without doubt is one of the most comprehensive and easily understood books on the subject. As you would expect from this Author and Grandmaster of the Shaolin arts this book explains the subject in clear and immaculate detail. Very highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars An amazing insight into the world of Shaolin Kung fu, 11 Jul 2003
By A Customer
Before reading this book my knowledge of kung fu was about as much as what id seen in films. However this book explains the history, theory and practicallity of this ancient art in a way even i could easily understand. Grand Master Wong Kiew Kit writes in a style that is enjoyable to read and not the complicated waffeling i found in similar books from other authors.

I would recommend this book to anyone who was interested in martial arts.
