300 Years of Hakka Kung Fu

Описание: “300 Years of Hakka Kung Fu" ( http://www.plumpub.com/sales/kungfu/c...) is a special kind of book: a scholar's book, a collector's book, a lineage-holder's record. This is NOT a training text. It is also a catalogue of a special exhibition on 300 years of Hakka Kung Fu, held in Hong Kong. This beautifully bound hardback edition acquaints us with the Hakka people, "The nomads of China.”

We celebrate the release of this book by compiling some live Hakka style demonstrations, taken from the remarkable two-disk collection “An Evening of Martial Arts.” (http://www.plumpub.com/sales/dvd/dvdc...)

Taken for the record it is meant to be, this is an extraordinary compilation. The photos of the teachers are done with intensity; the stories of their martial associations cross all the borders—family, social, traditional. Most of these masters have 10 or fewer students at this point in time. And this scholarly work draws from each of them their tightly bound relation to lifelong practice. If you know something about Hakka boxing technique, and want to expose yourself to its stories, dreams and heritage coming from a people famous for mathematics, astrology and storytelling, this will be a text you will return to over and over.
