Shaolin Lohan Kung Fu

By P'ng Chye Khim & Donn F. Draeger. 6" x 9", 170 pages, paperback. The Chinese fighting technique described in this book is believed to have developed from a form devised at the Shaolin Temple by the Indian monk Bodhidharma.

The authors present in detail the Lohan techniques of south China in both the solo and partner practice forms.
