The book in front of you is one of very few ever written about White Crane Kung Fu and the only one about Shaking Crane (Zong He) style written in English. The book introduces basic concepts of internal White Crane practice. Internal power has always been shrouded in a veil of mystery, often explained through Chinese religious and esoteric practices, believes and terminology. This book separates myths from facts and explains what internal power is and how it is generated within the body. Content is strictly focused on body mechanics and doesn't go into the realm of esoteric practices or religion of any kind. Basic methods of development, transmission and releasing of internal power are explained in detail. These methods are considered the very foundation and beginners course of Zong He Quan style, on the other hand, they are universal in their training approach and goals and could be included in practice of other internal styles, especially styles from Guangdong and Fujian provinces.

Developed by Wang Lang over 300 years ago, Praying Mantis Kung Fu is the only martial art based on the fighting skills of an insect. This fascinating system utilizes swift, methodical movements for defense and offense, and is well respected as an art that helps practitioners develop great strength and perseverance. The Complete Guide to Northern Praying Mantis Kung Fu provides an in-depth look at the history and practice of this remarkable martial art. Author Stuart Alve Olson, a student of T. T. Liang, draws on the lineages of Masters Feng Huan-I and Wang Han-Fon, but includes detailed description of all major schools, styles, and lineages. The first half of the book focuses on tactics and theory; the second half contains step-by-step descriptions of the fundamental Praying Mantis stances, exercises, footwork, and kicks, clearly illustrated by more than 200 photographs. What sets this book apart from other works on Praying Mantis is its philosophical depth; author Olson gives a clear account of the development of the art and the Taoist principles from which it arose. This book provides the basis for not only mastering the martial art of Praying Mantis Kung Fu but also mastering oneself—the true goal of all martial arts.

This book guides the reader through the essential ideas and lessons that underlie all Chinese martial arts-helping the reader incorporate this new understanding into their training. The book is divided into two parts. The first part breaks down fundamental concepts integral to understanding how to train correctly. The second part gives several training exercises designed to change the body and cultivate real internal skill.
