Description

Master Ch?ng, known as the "scholar-boxer,” lived and practiced in H?n?n province, at the center of Chinese culture and martial arts near the Sh?ol?n Temple and legendary Lu?y?ng. His extensive writings reflect many of the ideas, even the phraseology, now familiar from classic Tai Chi Chuan texts. Chinese-language authority Marnix Wells traveled to Ch?ng's village, where the master's family carries on his tradition of Ch?ng boxing. This resulting study of Chang's life and teachings reveals the true origins of today's internal martial arts.
