This book covers only the key internal development exercises of Li Gui Chang's Xing Yi Quan: Tu Na Si Ba and San Ti Shi. The more than 450 photos by Master Song's disciple, Valerie Ghent, clearly illustrate details of the exercises. Therefore, we have only included the verbal instructions that Song Zhi Yong actually gives to his students when teaching them San Ti Shi and Tu Na Si Ba.

J.J. Blickstein said Little Treasure. Excellent book with clear photos, insight and guidelines for teachers and students of Li Guichang's very refined and deep Neigong set. Very grateful to Song Zhi Yong and Tom Bisio for making this 'indoor' set available to the general public.Tu Na Si Ba is a very neat and compact set, useful to any martial practitioner, and key to developing the Shen Fa (body method), along with San Ti Shi, . An Important Work that Gives an Important View of the Inner Workings of the Internal Arts H. Asbury This book details information on a central neigong method employed in the style of Xing Yi taught by the late Li Gui Chang and Song Zhi Yong, as taught to Tom Bisio. This method is considered very important to developing the internal aspect of this style, and combines with the San Ti Shi to create the root for high ability in this art. Such information used to be the type of thing you would. Rich Parke said Important Addition to My Internal Martial Arts Library. I echo J.J. Blickstein's observations about this book. I, too, am a student of Martin LaPlatney and have found this work to be an invaluable resource--I've used it as a check before, or as a confirmatory source after, the day's practice. My sincere thanks to Song Zhi Yong, Tom Bisio, and Valerie Ghent for expending the effort to put this primer together.
