Book Reviews of Master Cheng's New Method of Taichi Ch'uan Self-Cultivation

Book Review: Relax, follow the Tao
Summary: 4 Stars

This book allows you to learn the Simplified Yang Style 37 Posture form. I haven't learned the form from this book, so i can't argue whether it is really helpful, although some photos in the book are present neither in "Tai Chi, The Supreme Ultimate" by Cheng Man Ching & Robert Smith, nor the 13 Treatises by Cheng Man Ching.
Other notable features are the Introduction and the Discources on 3 Fearlessness, and 3 Perseverences. Those have become "classics" since probably no one else could talk about these principles like Cheng Man Ching did. The Epilogue is quite interesting too. Even without the form, a book could be made an interesting and useful brochure.

Summary of Master Cheng's New Method of Taichi Ch'uan Self-Cultivation

Cheng Man-ch'ing, the famed master of t'ai chi, is regarded as an enormously influential figure in codifying the most widely practiced form of the ancient martial art. This volume, developed by the martial arts master and scholar, details the way that students arrive at a posture -- from beginning movements to the end pose.
