The Foremost Authority in Wah Lum Praying Mantis Kung Fu!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
This is Grandmaster Poi Chan's first publication and he did an EXCELLENT job of sharing his Kung Fu knowledge and experience with the reader. The material in this book is the REAL DEAL and has a lineage that can be traced back to the Shaolin Temple in China. Grandmaster Poi Chan is the 33rd disciple of the Shaolin Temple and the 6th generation successor of the Wah Lum Tam Tui Northern Praying Mantis System. The book provides us with clear, depictable, pictures and well-written descriptions of the Fatal Flute form and the Basic Stick form. Histories of each of the weapons, as well as fighting applications, are provided in substantial detail. A complete history of the systems lineage is also given. The book is a great addition to any martial artist's collection, especially of those in the Chinese martial arts. Personally, as with all martial art "teaching" oriented books, it it very hard to learn from them but this book will provide you with a great start and a valuable reference.

This book rocks!! Master Chan is the Man!!!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
Master chan does an excellent job explaining the techniques and applications of the flute and stick forms through several step by step pictures, several of which are taken at different angles. I never thought the flute could be such a deadly weapon, but like the back cover says "When the flute comes out as a weapon someone is going to die."
