Transmissions
The Yang family of Honan Province brought Tai Chi from
a closed courtyard to the status of national treasure, and
made it, like India's yoga, a gift to the world. This book
draws together the written and photographic record of their
teachings and commentaries. The contents include songs,
oral instructions, essays, autobiography and family legends.
Much of this material is translated for the first time.
Mastering Yang Style Taijiquan
Mastering Yang Style Taijiquan is the first English Translation
of Fu Zhongwen's esteemed handbook on the art of Taijiquan.
The book's superbly detailed form instruction are based
upon Fu's more than twenty years of first-hand study as
a disciple of the eminent Yang Chengfu. The historic line-art
drawings that accompany the text were rendered from photos
taken of Yang Chengfu's form. Together, the drawings and
form instructions constitute some of the best documentation
that we have of the traditional Yang Style Taijiquan form
as taught by Master Yang Chengfu.
The Tai Chi Boxing Chronicle
Master Kuo's teachings on Tai Chi postures, their energies
and their blending in movement, are distinguished for their
ancient wisdom, definitiveness, order, and their fidelity
to the original system on which all Tai Chi systems are
based. This is the most complete translation of the original
text on Tai Chi Chuan, from which all Chi-based arts are
derived. Translator Guttman's graceful interpretation includes
the writings of Wang Tsung Yueh, and ancient illustrations
not produced elsewhere.
