Within the pages of Kungfu Basics is a complete and comprehensive introduction to this ancient Chinese fighting art. In its in-depth study of kungfu, the book includes patterns and sets, the training of internal force, and strategies for victory. In easily understood language, the book highlights the basic elements of the style -- the stances, footwork, kicks, and hand techniques. Drills and conditioning exercises to develop speed, power, endurance, flexibiliity, and balance lend focus and power to this regimen. The book also shows students how to devise a training program and gauge their progress. These elements, designed specifically with the students' interests in mind, truly set Kungfu Basics far ahead of the martial arts pack.
