About this product

Product Information

"Wolfe Lowenthal's quiet little memoir will with window-opening wisdom reinforce, I think, my view of how Cheng stood on Tai Chi. It tells how a young writer reacted to this strange Chinese man when he appeared in New York City in the mid-1960s and stayed there for a decade before returning to Taiwan to die in 1975. In a nickel town where neurosis is a cardinal virtue, the Tai Chi center established by Cheng soon became an oasis of learning. In my visits there I was invariably approached by a quiet fellow with a ready smile and loads of questions. His form and sensing hands improved but he never lost his kindly ways. This led me once to tell the three seniors that the one person in the club who best exemplified Tai Chi was this junior. That man who has since become a teacher of the art is the author if this book." -Robert W. Smith, from the Preface

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!

  • Great Book

    As a student of the Cheng Man Ching style of Tai Chi Chuan, I found this book to be very informative and insightful on the Professor and his relationship with his students. I plan on purchasing the authors other book in the near future.

  • Great Secrets of a Great Master

    The students of Cheng Man Ching have put together a valuable book for all who desire to practice the art of tai ji quan. Since Cheng Man Ching is almost legendary in the U.S., this book is a must for all who try to 'play' tai ji quan in the shadow of this man. Well done, Bravo Zulu!

  • Excellent Book - One of the best on Cheng Man Ching

    one of the best books on tai chi, and prof cheng man ching. a must for any body interested in tai chi chuan.
