(Год издания не указан).Master Simon Wong is a distinguished practitioner of both the internal and external Chinese martial arts. He is known and respected throughout the martial arts community. Through his teacher Chu King-Hung, he traces his lineage in Tai Chi Chuan directly back to Yang Cheng-Fu, the founder of the modern version of Yang Style Tai Chi Chuan.
In this book Master Wong presents a Yang Style form, illustrated by numerous photographs and explained by means of step-by-step written instructions, though without unnecessary technicalities.
Also, he introduces the student to the self-defence applications of the form, again in a way which is practical and easy to understand. Master Wong has an exceptional talent for making complex matters simple and accessible.
This book is the result of his many years experience. It will be a valuable asset to all practitioners of Tai Chi Chuan, particularly those who do not have regular access to a teacher.
