Описание: Mei hates springtime. Why? Because it's only in the spring that Nian, a fierce dragon, is able to leave his mountain prison under the sea to terrorize the local village. When the villagers hear the rumblings of Nian's hungry stomach, they know that winter has ended and spring is coming. But this year on the night before the first day of spring, a magical warrior visits Mei in her dreams. He tells Mei that it is her destiny to face and defeat Nian. But she must do it within 15 days or the dragon will be free forever. Author Virginia Loh-Hagan (PoPo's Lucky Chinese New Year) gives this retelling of the Nian legend an original twist, while explaining the origins of Chinese New Year traditions.
Описание: This training manual is an introduction to the Forest Dragon Exercises, an approach to training in Pai Lum Kung Fu. The Forest Dragon Exercises is a system of exercises specifically designed to promote health and well-being without requiring a large time commitment. It includes an introduction to breathing and meditation, stretching exercises based on yoga, and the first of five forms, or movement exercises, intended to introduce the student to techniques of self-defense used in Pai Lum Kung Fu. Many of the techniques are taken directly from the traditional sets we train. The Forest Dragon Exercises represent five phases of development in the lower levels of Pai Lum. The first of these phases is presented in this book. You can download excerpts from the book at NianMedia.netMore information about the Forest Dragon School and the Forest Dragon Exercises can be found at www.ForestDragon.org .
