donation for download, shipping should not be added.

donation for download, PayPal will probably add $6 shipping, though I am trying to work that out. So please take a few downloads while you're there.

Here are the pdf downloads that I have made so far.

I would appreciate a donation for the dictionaries, name lists, coaching wushu, and the wushu program, but the files are here for you to take. The security password is tglbooks. You don't need this to open the files, but I needed to do something to prevent changes. You can print, copy and extract content with the security password.

The book excerpts are hopefully so that you will decide to buy the books, so no donation is sought, of course.

There are a couple of order forms as well, for those who prefer to mail cheques.

Coaching Wushu, 1989

(sorry, still no figures). 429 KB file. Coaching Wushu is a manual that I did in 1989, for a university course. It is flawed, but I haven't seen any other material out there on coaching wushu, so I've posted it in pdf form. I hope some day to update and fix it, and publish it properly, but for now, here it is without images or the appendices.

Wushu Program, 1991

(sorry, still no figures). 216 KB file. Wushu Development Program is a paper I did in 1990, towards my masters degree completion. It was done before the new grading system was developed in China, so the program techniques are based on the old basic routines, but the ideas are still valid
