Hakka Kung Fu: Martial arts and culture of the Hakka people

Hakka Kuen is a generic term for all the martial arts developed by the Chinese Hakka community, mainly in southern China.This book is intended as a general presentation of the Hakka culture and their martial arts. It is the synthesis of our travels, trainings and research on the subject. We have tried to collect and classify the information in order to make it available to martial artists and new generations of Hakka around the world. The richness of the Hakka martial culture is undeniable, and not only many famous Chinese Kung Fu styles are Hakka (such as Pak Mei, Wing Chun, White Crane, Long Yin, Southern Praying Mantis...), but many non-Chinese martial arts happen to have Hakka roots as well.
