Secrets of the Shaolin Masters
Author: Paul KohPublisher:
ISBN: 9780865682542
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 147
Book Description
Classical kung-fu is an art both fascinating and esoteric, and any venture seeking to capture it, to translate its inherent physicality into a purely written form, is a daunting task. With Five Elements Fist, however, sifu Paul Koh has applied his decades of knowledge and experience to compose a volume that expertly brings to life on the page what a student would typically learn only in person. For anyone without any background in kung-fu, but with an abiding interest in its traditional artistry, philosophy, and fundamental skills, Five Element Fist is an excellent introduction that I could not recommend more strongly. Through more than 100 step-by-step photos, Koh demonstrates how you can discover the secrets of shaolin.

Book Description
History is a subject everyone knows but few understand. Chinese historiansin the past have often helped dull events become exciting stories by alteringthe facts. A well-trained, quickly executed technique became a magic. unblockablemaneuver, or a strong, high jump into the air became an act of levitation. This, to be sure, helped to perk up the listener's ears, but made it essential for anyoneinterested in the facts rather than the fantasy of a well-spun yarn to separatethat which happened from that which was imagined.Myths, legends and folktales are usually tied to some kind of factualevent, one way or another. Often, however, trying to realistically distinguishwhere the event begins and the myth leaves off is no easy task.The accurate account of Wing Chun from its historical origins to thepresent day is immersed in such problems which can only be straightenedout after having intelligently gathered, laid out and sifted throughall of the legends and facts available

Hidden Hands

Languages : en
Pages : 250
Book Description
The solo forms or sets of a martial art may appear to be merely flashy performances or rote exercises for conditioning, and because of this many students disregard this aspect of their training. True martial arts masters, however, know that the forms of a system actually contain all of the techniques and secrets of that system—if one knows how to look for them. Often called the “great books” of martial arts, forms are crucial for a deeper understanding of the art one practices. In Hidden Hands, Phillip Starr provides detailed instruction in the art of reading martial arts forms: by first mastering rudimentary “words” (individual techniques) and then moving on to simple “sentences” (combinations of techniques), the student will come to understand forms as ancient documents that contain the true essence of their art. Starr discusses different aspects of forms practice such as rhythm, timing, spirit, and performance, and presents specific guidelines for interpreting the movements of various forms. The book ends with the dissection and interpretation of a complete form. Containing examples from Chinese, Japanese, Okinawan, and Korean martial arts, Hidden Hands shows serious practitioners how to improve in any art and style.
