Overview

Uncover one of Chinese martial arts' most closely guarded complete systems. WHITE DRAGON RISING presents the entire Pai-Chia Chüan system in a single, definitive volume - the first time this rare and powerful Chinese kung fu tradition has been mapped from first principles to advanced practice in the English language. Author Jeffrey A. Cohen draws on decades of direct transmission to guide practitioners through the system's foundational stances and footwork, its signature striking sequences, the philosophical framework rooted in traditional Chinese internal arts, and the combat applications that make Pai-Chia Chüan as effective for modern self-defense as it is historically authentic. Whether you are an experienced kung fu or wushu practitioner seeking a rare Dragon-style discipline, a Tai Chi or internal arts student expanding your repertoire, or a serious collector of grandmaster-level martial arts manuals - this is the complete reference you have been searching for. Inside you will find: the complete forms curriculum - detailed technique breakdowns with applications - the lineage and oral history of Pai-Chia Chüan - training progressions from beginner to advanced - the Taoist and Chinese boxing principles underlying every movement. White Dragon Rising is not an introduction to martial arts. It is the definitive record of a living system - preserved in full for the first time.
