Synopsis:

This is not simply a training manual but a combat survival guide for the street. The techniques introduced in Volume I are now shown in combat situations. The real-life applications of Wing Chun's sticky-hand, sticky-leg, and grappling and throwing techniques are explained in detail, with full illustrations. Included is a complete and devastating new fighting system that unites White Crane Kung Fu and Thai kickboxing.

Trade Paperback. Condition: Fine. Brand, Jude - Cover Design (illustrator). Fifth Printing. 83 Pages with Glossary. This is the second volume in a three-volume treatise on the nature of Wing Chun kung-fu. The broad aim of these books is to present a concise, systematic, and scientific discussion of a somewhat controversial martial-art system. Chinese kung-fu, rightly or wrongly, has often been shrouded in secrecy and mysticism. There is often great vagueness about why skills are as they are, and why techniques work or do not work. Those who adopt a mystical approach to the martial arts are welcome to do so. But for those who do not accept that world view, these books may be what they are looking for. My approach to the martial arts is based upon common sense and an appreciation of biomechanical principles. However, this free thinking does not result in a freestyle approach where often incongruous techniques and approaches are thrown together in the hope of obtaining a coherent, complete, and unified combative art. What I have attempted to do here is to analyze a classical martial-arts system-Wing Chun kung-fu-using Western modes of thinking; namely, through examining it with logic, physics, and biomechanics, but without undue technicalities or the use of mathematics.
