This is a tour through the Kung Fu zoo, starting at the front gate with the five animals every serious student eventually meets, moving through the more exotic animals, the drunks and immortals, the acrobats and tricksters, and ending in the almost-superhuman — the conditioning methods, legendary founders, and flexible weapons that push a human body past what most fighters ever bother asking of it.
Including:
Each style or system, be it family or academic, has one unique quality upon which it is based. Pa Kua is circling, Hsing-i is linear, Vagabonds are deceptive, Tigers are ferocious, and so on. This short study explores the principles and ramifications of each, and many others not listed. Well worth the scholarship.
The techniques described in this book are intended solely for lawful self-defense, educational study, and supervised training. Martial arts training involves inherent risks of serious injury or death. Practice responsibly, use appropriate safety equipment, and train under qualified instruction whenever possible.
Mike Frazier has studied Eastern and Western styles of martial arts for more than 35 years, earning black belt ranks in karate, ninjutsu and jujutsu. He is a recognized master instructor with Shinja Martial Arts University and Dojo Academy of Martial Arts.
