I recommend you buy this product........2007-05-07

This DVD came quickly and was in perfect condition. It is clear and easy to follow along with. The participants are people of all different sizes, shapes, ages and skill levels. I recommend you buy the Shaolin Kung Fu Fundamental Training DVD. You won't be dissappointed.

Very good resource........2007-04-20

This is an excellent video that covers the basics. Dr. Yang is an excellent instructor.

EDUCATIONAL RESOURCE VERY WELL DONE AND WORTH EVERY DOLLAR I PAID!.......2006-03-20

This dvd is loaded with information. I suspect I will be learning, refering to and benefitting from its contents for years to come.Dr Yang appears as a very learned Sifu and as I have recently begun the practice of Kung Fu at a school in Michigan (TCMA/ Berkley) this was bought as a tool to use at home. I am totally pleased and am glad I own this. Thanks to Sifu Yang for taking the time to do what he does which is pass on valuable and rare kung fu knowledge. I do feel that a beginner buying this DVD would be able to increase his/her awareness and make progress in kung fu even if there was not a school to attend though it is reccommended. I am looking forward to it all.

Wow! If this is the 'basic training'.........2005-12-06

Kung Fu means 'Time / Energy'. Literally, something which takes time and energy to achieve.

In this video, Dr. Yang teaches the necessary body conditioning for Shaolin Kung Fu, starting with stretching for the entire body, both standing and sitting. Some of it is very intense, difficult stuff which needs to be patiently trained for 6 months.

During the fundamental stances Master Yang explains some of the applications, and really corrects the posture of his students demonstrating. He teaches with a great sense of humor, with a very humble manner, but offers so much information for each technique.

The Punches are shown in a classroom situation, with corrections and applications, and are also shown by students hitting a heavy bag. There is a great variety of techniques, which give an excellent foundation for further study.
Very fun and serious video!

Thank you Master Yang for keeping the classical martial arts of Shaolin Temple alive and well. This fundamental training is rigorous and gives a lot of insight into other, more 'modern' styles. Very practical, powerful techniques.
