Synopsis Sun Style Tai Chi Sword by : Carl Bateman
A Guide to Sun Style 62 Step Sword Form uses text and photographs to illustrate the postures of the form and to help students learn and practise this sword form developed by Sun Lu-Tang and passed on to his daughter Sun Jian Yun, and through her to the author's two sword teachers, David Martin of Leicester, UK and later Zhang Zhen-Hua of Beijing, China. The book is composed of over 350 photographs which not only illustrate the postures of the sword form, but the transitions flowing from one posture to the next, close up of sword handling and reinforced by description and direction. There are also references to the teachings of Madam Sun Jian-Yun translated by the author of several books on Sun Style Taijiquan, Bradford Tyrey, at different points through the text adding a wider perspective to this book. The author teaches in the United Kingdom, and is part of a network of instructors, teachers and students based in the UK who train in the traditional Sun Style Taijiquan of Sun Jian-Yun which follow her father's teachings, and handed down through Zhang Zhen-Hua, David Martin and Bradford Tyrey by Sun Jian-Yun.

Synopsis Tai Chi Sword by : Juan Antonio de Blas
The straight double-edged sword has fascinated China for years. Considered to be the queen of all traditional weapons, it occupies a place of honour in the heritage of Martial Arts. Moreover, the spirit of the sword has a profound symbolic value in Chinese culture, thanks to which it transcends its practical use as a combat tool, sinking its blade into folklore, the arts and philosophy. The complexity of its handling and the precision required by each of the techniques that give it essence, make the straight sword an instrument of martial refinement without parallel. This book presents a detailed description of the 32-Step Straight Sword Form: one of the most widely used and practised sequences of Tai Chi Chuan in the world. This sword Form is a simplified version of the traditional Yang style one that allows beginners and intermediate level practitioners to be introduced to the study of this emblematic weapon.

Synopsis Taiji Sword and Other Writings by : Chen Wei-Ming
A longtime student of the taiji grand master Yang Cheng-Fu, Chen Wei-Ming became famous himself as a scholar, martial artist, and proponent of the Yang style of t'ai chi. In the 1920s, he wrote a number of influential books on taiji, among them Taiji Sword (1927), which detailed a rare method of fencing. Translated here for the first time, this book serves as both a historical document and a training manual for an increasingly popular sport.
