TJMP Wooden Dummy Book, authored by Grandmaster Chiu’s student Wong Chi Shing, is now available. This is by far the only book featuring Grandmaster Chiu Chuk Kai performing the entire TJPM Wood Dummy form. There are articles including the biography of Grandmaster Chiu, and over hundred of pictures in this 113 pages book. Unfortunately, there is only Chinese version available at this time. This form is unique to our system. It is not taught until the advanced level and not all the TJPM schools are currently teaching it in their curriculums. As a collector and preserver, this legacy of a Grandmaster is not to be missed. The price, all funds are in US dollars, is set at $40.00 plus $10.00 shipping. Please add $5.00 dollars for locations outside North America. Multiple quantity orders are welcomed. Price wise it may not be accessible for some people; however, this book being the intellectual property of a Grandmaster and the effort of many people involved, I am sure most people would understand.
