Foreword
By Master Wang Xin-wu, China
Martial art is a Chinese national sport. It is also to be reassured by all people of the world. Martial arts have both attack and
defence, and these movements need to be placed in sequence to create a style. Sex, age, location, seasons or weapons do not
govern martial art. The purpose of martial art is to toughen your bones and muscles for defence, and to improve your
intelligence and mental attitude. Because peoples of the world are now exchange in cultures and martial artists have similar
interests, friendships are being formed of mutual benefit to all concerned.
T’ai chi is one style of martial art. There are five different versions. The most popular versions in China are the Chen and Yang
styles. The Yang style is very relaxed, smooth and slow, with internal strength. It is suitable for the old, the weak or those
suffering from illness.
The author of this book, Erie Montaigue, brought the Australian Kung Fu Association to visit Yinchuan City, Ningxia, to see
the Chinese Martial Arts Tournament in May 1985. Master Montaigue
