Lavinia's book is called "Self Defence for Women" and is based on her self defence method of A.P.A.P (Awareness, Psychology, Avoidance & Physical). This book covers many differing aspects of self defence, focusing on the point that martial arts is a cultural discipline where self defence is concerned with survival. Dispelling the most common misconception made that you must learn a martial art for self defence.
Peter's book is called "The Kung Fu Handbook", which takes a beginner through the history of Kung Fu and what is involved with finding the right instructor and style to suit the individual. Also included are safe warm up exercises, and the Traditional Kung Fu basic's (eg. Stances, kicking, punching and body co-ordination exercises). There are over one hundred different styles of kung fu and many more variations, the book explains about the different styles of Northern & Southern Kung Fu systems. There is also two different Traditional routines of Kung fu. One is Tan Tui (Northern Spring Leg) and Xingyiquan (Mind & Will Boxing).
Both books have hundreds of beautifully illustrated pictures with easy to read text to follow each move step by step.
Lavinia's book is a must for the women who wants to gain confidence and knowledge for their own self protection, and Peter's book is for the student wishing a deeper knowledge of Kung fu.
A special thank you to the students that took part in the photoshoots, Elaine, Edward, Boycee, Berdita & Jason.
Both books are available now!
Price: ₤9.99 each + ₤5.00 P&P
