Book Reviews of The Wing Chun Compendium, Volume One

Book Review: A Collection of Basic Techniques that is Poorly Performed and Photographed.
Summary: 1 Stars

I bought both volumes of "The Wing Chun Compendium"; as the title indicates, it is a compendium of a bunch of basic moves. This product, like many others on the market, is merely a laundry list of techniques/forms. If you know nothing at all, and I mean NOTHING, then it might do you some good, but probably more confusion. The photos are in black and white with dark gray background making them camouflaging into the background. If you are a beginner, it might be of no use. However, if you are a serious WC practitioner, then don't even waste your money. These volumes are huge, but they are mostly empty. I bought these books for reference, but it is not the standard I was looking for.
