Shaolin Traditional Kungfu Series
This series has an introductory calligraphic introduction by Yang Zhao Ting, the former president of the National Chinese WuShu Association. The writer of the series, Geng Jun, studied under Su Xi, Su Fa and Li Zhuan Yuan. There are general notes and demonstrations of the Shaolin stances for the entire series. There's also a nice short color section on students and Geng Jun's activities. The side-by-side Chinese and English make this a very useful text with clear instructions.
This book teaches one of Shaolin's main "small" or "short" fists, the Seven Star. It contains numerous squatting and contracted positions and embodies the Shaolin concept of "defend like a cat, attack like a tiger". Form only.
