3.0 out of 5 stars
if you would like to train on drunken boxing, this may not be for you,
By
This review is from: The Drunkard Kung Fu and Its Application (Paperback)
there are two types of drunken boxing: the traditional and the contemporary. the traditional is the type where you can use it on real fights. the contemporary is just for show. the effectiveness on real fights may or may not really work. this book teaches contemporary. but even though you may not use this in a real fight, it still is fun to do.
3.0 out of 5 stars
A fine book for an intorduction to the art, but little more,

This review is from: The Drunkard Kung Fu and Its Application (Paperback)
This book is alright if you want a brief outline of the art, but it is not a complete guide or all inclusive. The movements are made simple, but the application is very unrealistic in parts. The book is broken down into 2 parts. The first is solo movements and the second is the application of them. Can't recommend it for anything other than an introduction of the art and the history within.

frikkin awsome,

This review is from: The Drunkard Kung Fu and Its Application (Paperback)
I dont know about others but i enjoyed this book extremely. It has alot of moves in it to practice (i just went through and picked out the ones that involved drunken movements though). The pictures are a little small though, but they do have a good system of telling you when to slow down or speed up your movements. The fighting style itself is often seen as useless, and while it might not be the most affective style, practice anything long and hard enough and youll get good, also if your fast and strong it can actually be of use. Remember have fun practice hard and keep drinking!
