Customer Reviews
The only essential martial arts book.
Wong Kiew Kit writes in a flowing, friendly and accessible manner that is truely becoming. The simple yet profound insights are enhanced by his understated authority shining through. The simple exercises provided me with fundamental structure to my daily routine and any good teacher will teach variations on them all. My routine naturally changes based on what I learn in classes, but I always find myself coming back to Wong Keiw Kit with greater admiration. If I had to choose only one martial arts book, it would be this one.
In relative terms, Yang Jwing-Ming is a translator, Daniels Reid is an observer, Wong Keiw Kit is a master.
Br Careful!
Although i have the utmost resepect fot Sifu Wong the exercises in this book can a little dangerous. I tried them for around 6 weeks and found that Chi kept on getting stuck in my throat area! Insomnia, headaches and other unpleasant symptoms occured. One thing is that...cooling and collecting exercises are NOT included in this book enough....Try Daniel Reids book on chi gung. To my mind a lot safer.
Another classic
As I have come to expect from this author (and Grandmaster of Shaolin Wahnam)another excellent and comprehensive discussion on the amazing art of Chi Kung. Easily understood and clearly explained I cannot recommend this book highly enough. If you have any interest in this subject you really must read this!
