Minor creasing on front cover. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSteeped in the mystique of ancient Chinese martial tradition, 108 Movements of the Shaolin Wooden Men Hall: Part Two chronicles the legendary combat gauntlet that every graduating monk of the Shaolin Temple was said to endure — a harrowing corridor of 108 mechanical wooden dummies, each programmed to strike, block, and test the warrior to his limits. This second volume continues the detailed instructional breakdown of the sequential techniques and fighting postures that form one of kung fu's most iconic and enduring rites of passage, presenting each movement with precision for the serious martial arts practitioner.\n\nRooted in the rich oral and physical traditions of Chinese Shaolin Buddhism and Wushu, this work sits at the crossroads of martial philosophy, historical legend, and practical combat instruction. The Wooden Men Hall has captured the imagination of martial artists and historians alike for centuries, immortalised in folklore, literature, and film, and this volume argues its continued relevance as both a technical manual and a cultural artefact. Whether you are drawn by the pursuit of mastery or the allure of legend, this text promises a journey deeper into the heart of Shaolin's most guarded secrets.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49130930700507,"sku":"2026100007019-SECONDHAND","price":12.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/1dbfca50-b782-4cdc-9350-ffab9bbfea4c.png?v=1786592590","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100007019-secondhand-108-movements-of-the-shaolin-wooden-men-hall-part-two","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
