Review: Good read - Great book Review: Easy to follow instructions - Clear guidance provided and clear photos. I would have preferred to see the entire wooden dummy form before the sections on application, but that is just a personal preference. Thoroughly recommended for those beginning on the dummy and a good refresher for the more advanced.

Easy to follow instructions
Clear guidance provided and clear photos. I would have preferred to see the entire wooden dummy form before the sections on application, but that is just a personal preference. Thoroughly recommended for those beginning on the dummy and a good refresher for the more advanced.

A very good book.
A very well produced book, clear photos displaying the finer points coupled with the diagrams and photos makes this book a very good purchase and a must as far as I am concerned regarding learning the wooden dummy with out a personal trainer.

A useful resource
Clear and practical guidance for anyone who is studying Wing Chun or Jeet Kune and wants support in training using a wooden dummy. A book can never replace an actual trainer but this is a good compliment, written by a well-grounded master.

My best buy so far!!
Very interesting reading lots of detail explanation into how to use the dummy and execute the techniques and how it can be used in a fight. I love it.

EXCELLENT
THERE IS NOTHING ELSE LIKE THIS OUT THERE! SOME TIMES READING AROUUND A SUBJECT CAN JUST SPARK A SMALL THOUGHT THAT WATCHING A VIDEO JUST DOESNT DO

I have to give the author a standing ovation for the clarity of his book! The detailed photography and explanation make it easy to follow and understand. This is a must have work for any serious Wing Chun practitioner. I'm looking forward to any further work from this author. With deep respect

Pour avoir commandé les 2 livres de Shaun Rawcliff, ils sont très bien faits et très précis. Pour le mannequin, il y a aussi pas mal d'applications pour mieux comprendre.Certes, ça ne vaut pas un prof pour comprendre en profondeur, mais c'est super comme aide mémoire ou comme outil pour apprendre le basique du mannequin.

Gut dargestellt und erklärt. Wie beschrieben. Schritt für Schritt Anleitung. Gutes Hintergrundwissen. Gehört in eine Budo Bibliothek. Kann man empfehlen.

Great book! I have purchased and read a few Wing Chun books and this by far has been one of the best ones; especially, if you are interested in learning the wooden dummy forms/drills. It has a logical step-by-step process that shows you not only the application of the form on the dummy but how it applies towards an opponent using good color photographs. I would recommend this book to anyone studying Wing Chun or looking to learn more about the system. My only complaint is that sometimes the body of information does not necessarily follow the pics referenced on that page.
