Pages Softbound - photographs
This series is excellent
and sought after! Sensei
Ryuchi was a student of Grandmaster Liu Yun Chiao of Taiwan, among others, and his books are informative, clear and well photographed. They are something of a first for the time in which they were produced. In this volume the 12 Road Tan Tui is shown in great detail. Also, as a sort of bonus feature, a little two person set called Seven Star Duet is shown. The photos and lay out are excellent with clearly shown details. The basics section also shows applications. |
