5.0 out of 5 stars Great book, January 1, 2004
This review is from: Choy Lay Fut Kung-Fu: Chinese Art of Self-Defense (Paperback)
This is a difficult book to locate, and I managed to find a worn copy from the early 80s at a discount bookstore. The book covers basics, including of course, the history of CLF. There are 2 forms in the book, a Horse stance form, and a long range fighting form. It covers in detail different blocks, footwork and methods of attack, and application of the art. While by no means complete, it is a very detailed and written book covering alot of aspects of CLF. I reccommend this above the one written by Doc Fai Wong.

3.0 out of 5 stars Book for beginners, September 2, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Choy Lay Fut Kung-Fu: Chinese Art of Self-Defense (Paperback)
There are not many books out there for this style and I was hoping to get a more well rounded view of CLF by reading about it. However, what the author covers are basic techniques. It seems the author is well versed in several martial arts, however the book did not seem to be written by an expert CLF practitioner.

A good photo outline of one version of the two beginning sets fundamental to choy lay fut.

This book is only for people just starting choy lay fut or those who want to read about it before trying it.
