The pictures could be clearer-it's sometimes hard to tell which leg is in front due to the dark clothing/low resolution, but for the age it holds up quite well. I love the details around pressing the shoulders down/back, postural alignment, they're reminiscent of a good yoga teacher's guidance on finding the correct pose.

The work includes explanations for basic training, single techniques, forms, and two-person forms. Besides, the book also includes a detailed biography of Sun Lutang, as well as an interview with his daughter, Sun Jianyun.Definitely a worthy reference for any xingyiquan practitioner!Profile Image for Mark.Mark54 reviews1 followerFollowFollowReadAugust 10, 2016This is a great book for anyone studying Xing Yi Quan.
