“Speak to any native of Southern China about Bagua Zhang and the
name ‘Fu Zhen Song’ will quickly come up in the conversation. Fu
was largely responsible for the introduction of the Northern
internal martial arts systems to the Southern Chinese, and his
coiling movements, lightning-quick footwork, spinning maneuvers,
and thunderous palm strikes are legendary. All students of Bagua
Zhang will benefit greatly from the material that has been provided
in this book, and I applaud Wei Ran Lin and Rick L. Wing for their
efforts in providing Lin Chao Zhen's book to the English-speaking
world.”
—Dan Miller, publisher and editor, Pa Kua Chang Journal
"The Chinese martial art of Bagua Zhang has a long and
illustrious history of training manuals, and Fu Zhen Song’s Dragon
Bagua Zhang carries on this grand tradition. Lin Chao Zhen was a
direct student of Fu Zhen Song, and his closeness to that renowned
teacher is reflected in the detail shown in the various techniques
in the book. I highly recommend this important and informative
training manual."
—Brian L. Kennedy, coauthor of Chinese Martial Arts Training
Manuals: A Historical Survey
"This concise volume not only introduces Fu Zhen Song's unique
Dragon Bagua Form but also provides extensive historical notes
about Fu's connections to many of the most well-known martial
artists of his time. This book will be a valuable addition to any
student's collection."
