Master the many styles of Wing Chun Kung Fu with this expert martial arts guide. With the fame of Bruce Lee, the conditions in Hong Kong, and the hard work and effort of many of his classmates, the Wing Chun of the late master Yip Man became one of the most well-known and popular Chinese martial arts in the world. Although this gave Wing Chun international recognition, it also led to a lot of misconceptions. Due to a lack of authentic information, many mistakenly came to assume that the renowned Yip Man was the sole inheritor of the style and that his Wing Chun was the lone version of the art. In fact, there are several different and distinct systems of Wing Chun. Unfortunately, over the years most of these systems have remained unseen or unreported to all but a few—until now. Profusely illustrated with over 300 historical photographs, Complete Wing Chun: The Definitive Guide to Wing Chun's History and Traditions presents seldom seen information on a dozen branches of the Wing Chun art. It offers the reader side-by-side comparison of these arts by outlining each system in terms of Wing Chun history, principles, basics, and training methods:<ul>
<li>Yip Man Wing Chun</li>
<li>Yuen Kay-San Wing Chun Kuen</li>
<li>Gu Lao Wing Chun Kuen</li>
<li>Nanyang Wing Chun Kuen</li>
<li>Pan Nam Wing Chun Kuen</li>
<li>Pao Fa Lien Wing Chun Kuen</li>
<li>Hung Suen Wing Chun Kuen</li>

The Six Healing Sounds has a long history in China. Used as a self-cultivation tool, it is based on the principles of Chinese Medicine where sounds have a connection to the internal organs. The Chinese name is Liu Zi Jue, meaning, literally, "six characters knack or secrets". The real meaning behind them is to use the sound syllable to vibrate and massage the internal organs to maintain health, or to heal if one is sick. To the Chinese, to heal means to be in harmony or balance. In fact, that is the goal of all the Chinese healing arts - to bring one into balance. The Six Healing Sounds will strengthen what is deficient, and will sedate what is excess.Six Healing Sounds Made Simple is a bold step to introduce the art to the West in its authentic form. Although there are many schools of Six Healing Sounds that are taught here, most are focusing on making loud sounds with the throat alone, and do not address the intricacies and practice of a healing nature.Hendrik Santo has made a simplified method in which the practitioner can learn and practice and immediately benefit. It is used as a method of self-healing, and can be used by anyone.Six Healing Sounds in a nutshell, can be described as almost like humming to oneself with breathing, while in meditative seating, and mental state in Samadhi. To sum it up that simply, is an over-simplification, as it takes some time to cultivate those steps.In his teachings, Hendrik Santo pays close attention to the details of mental state, physical posture, relaxation, breathing, timing, sound, mouth formation, rhythm, and duration of the Six Healing Sounds. These are further supplemented with understanding the Chinese Medicine principles and concepts behind them.

In this book, I hope to guide my fellow colleagues into the intricacies of Chinese Medicine Traumatology and the use of Master Tung’s Acupuncture in Acute Care, and share the principles and concepts that make it a highly useful in the clinical setting. I discuss here the principles and concepts that are used in the clinic and practical use to the Licensed Acupuncturist who is also studied in Chinese Herbal Medicine. The Chinese Martial Artist will also like my approach, as I give the background on the herbology of Dit Da (Traumatology), the composition of formulas, discuss many famous remedies and their constitution, teach to make your own custom Rx’s, and use common patents for acute care, and in addition, use classical and Master Tung’s Acupuncture. This has not been done before by any Tung practitioner. The book is extensively done in Pin Yin and Chinese characters to help practitioners new to the subject to be able to cross reference the herbals in other books. There are thousands of prescriptions for Traumatology and Orthopedics and after studying the subject for over 30 years and reading major books on the subject in Chinese, I distilled the essentials and approached the work in a practical straightforward manner to use clinically on a daily basis. It is hoped that the reader can use these principles and concepts here and achieve amazing results in his or her practice, as these are what I use in my own practice daily with amazing results!
