Breaking Power of Wing Chun

Rating:
Summary: This book was a huge disappointment.
Review: The author implies that "secret" techniques will be described. They must be so secret that one cannot discern what they are. There is very little text. The book has many pictures of stances, which don't look very different from each other. In fact it seems that the author is in the same stances with different clothes on. Perhaps this is a very esoteric book which is designed for a very limited audience. I have 30 years of martial arts experience, and found the book to be of no use. I returned it to Amazon.

Summary: This book shows techniques not shown in other books.
Review: The book is not meant as an instructional. I would not reccomend it to anyone that knows very little about Wing chun.Austin goh demonstrates the secret sand bag form, and various chi demonstrations like bending bars with his neck, one finger press ups, and chopstick throwing into plywood. As the title suggests, it shows the breaking power of wing chun. It has some breathing exersises, and many breaking demonstrations in the back. A circular cane chi sao exersise is also included. Generally, I would recommend this book for anyone after they have purchased a few other first and second level books. As with all of the wing chun conditioning techniques, I would exersise extreme caution. The proper Iron palm linement, Dit da jow with Iron palm herbs added (Never dit da jow ALONE), should be used at all times.
