You CANNOT learn from a book, DVD or the web - 10/17/05 08:54 PM
PLEASE READ THIS NOW!
Yes I mean YOU!
Before you post in here asking for links to "xyz site" to learn sai kata or bo kata or any other sort of weapons stuff you need to realise that none of these things can be learnt effectively without a proper instructor.
It takes 5-10 times longer to unlearn incorrect technique that you pick up in your bookworm/DVD quest which an experienced instructor could help you fix within 5 minutes.
So DON'T ask for links for kata here unless you are already learning correct technique in a dojo with a decent instructor.
I for one am getting heartily sick of all these wannabes that can't or won't commit to serious training but who want to play around with bo or sai or jo or tonfa or nunchaku [yes that's the correct spelling kiddies, read it again "NUNCHAKU" ].
Thankyou for your attention class.
