Refining Jin

Martial artist Phillip Starr explains the "coiling power" of Jin and how to subtly refine it for a more relaxed but explosive force, which can be used with multiple fighting and martial arts styles. Adding to the numerous basic exercises from his previous book, Developing Jin, martial artist Phillip Starr focuses on more advanced and subtle aspects of emitting the legendary "coiling power." Starr conveys the facets to this unique technique with straightforward ease, dozens of detailed black and white photos, and the patience of a master teacher. Perfect for students interested in the martial arts systems of baguazhang, taijiquan, and xingyiquan (or "coiling power") who want to deepen their understanding and practice of them.
