Book Description
Tang Soo Tao: The Living Buddha in Martial Virtue is a thorough, comprehensive and integrated guide to Martial Arts; the student syllabus, technique, training and belt grading of the Tang Soo Tao style; and the autobiography of Master Robert Caputo. Before starting his Martial Arts school in Darwin, Australia in 1974, Master Caputo did extensive training in Tang Soo Do, Goju and Aikido, Nei Gong, Kick Boxing and Penak Silat; as well as mastering acupuncture and oriental medicine. After meeting Venerable Zasep Tulku Rinpoche in 1976, he subsequently travelled to India to study Tibetan Buddhism. There he met with HH Dalai Lama and was tutored by HH Ling Rinpoche and HH Trijang Rinpoche, tutors to the HH Dalai Lama. The Living Buddha in Martial Virtue is his account of his quest to rediscover the link between physical Martial Arts and spiritualism in the way that was conceived by warrior Buddhist monk, Bodhidharma, some 1500 years earlier. Sadly, Master Caputo died in a car accident in 1985 but his legacy is a thriving network of Martial Art schools administered by the Tang Soo Tao Federation of Australia. The release of the 50th Anniversary edition of his book honours his lasting legacy. Tang Soo Tao; martial art; martial arts; self defence; black be

Moo Do Chul Hahk
Author: Hyun Chul Hwang
Publisher: Dog Ear Publishing
ISBN: 9781608441198
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 368
Book Description
The Moo Do Chul Hahk (Moo Do Philosophy) presents a philosophy of the internationally recognized martial art grandmaster and Founder of the Moo Duk Kwan, Hwang Kee. Hwang Kee established the Korean Soo Bahk Do Association, served as its President for many years, and dedicated his life to the practice and teaching of the traditional Korean Martial Art, Soo Bahk Do. The Moo Do Chul Hahk details a philosophy of the "martial way" (Moo Do), a philosophy of balance emphasizing the development of personal virtue and character. It is a book written as a guide for any martial arts practitioner who wishes to deepen their understanding and practice of Moo Do Philosophy to become an authentic moodoin--that is, a true follower and exemplar of the "Martial Way." This book was also written for students and scholars of Asian Studies interested in the evolution of Asian philosophical thought in the practice of traditional martial arts. Scholars will find descriptions of Taoist and Confucian philosophical principles and their application to a traditional Korean Martial Art by a deeply respected contemporary practitioner. The introduction provides a historical and socio-political context for the emergence of the organization known as the Moo Duk Kwan and the evolution of the practice of Soo Bahk Do. It also provides information regarding the basis of the practice of Soo Bahk Do founded in a highly treasured Korean historical document entitled the Moo Yei Do Bo Tong Ji. Scholars of Asian Studies interested in the historical, social, political and philosophical emergence of traditional martial arts will find this book a valuable source. However, readers will find that the real value offered by the Moo Do Chul Hahk, is a message of hope, peace and a way of living by following the principles of nature, harmony, balance, and virtue.

The most practiced form of Wing Chun is the Hong Kong version, which is streamlined and compact. However, older systems survive in China and one of them is the obscure art known as Fut Sao (Buddha Hand) Wing Chun. Fut Sao Wing Chun was brought to America in 1961 by Grandmaster Henry Leung, (Hong Lei, Chi Man), who learned the whole system under Great Master Gao Jhi Fut Sao. The system was passed down in America to Master Leung's one disciple, Sifu James Cama. In this book Cama sets out, for the first time, the outline of the Fut Sao system of Wing Chun Kuen.This book is special because, for the first time ever, the Fut Sao Siu Lin Tao and its two-man set are revealed. The Hei Gung set and meditation visualization practice are also detailed. The gem of the art is its internal practices which are rarely seen in Wing Chun. Chapters included: forms training, weapons, training enhancement devices, sensitivity training and internal training.
