Question to experienced WC heads

[Abstract]

i am frustrated..i've had bronchitus for 3 weeks now, almost gone, takin' anitbiotics & so forth, but i can't train for another week or so, doctor's orders...OK...got that outta the way..my question is at what point did you begin learning the weapon forms? staff/butterfly knives...i've only been doing this for a few months, so it's not like I'm in a rush or anything...i am ritualisticly going through SLT every class(4 times a week)Chi Sao, the 1st dummy form, and warm ups, etc...like I said, no rush to learn(though I look forward to it)just curious 'bought everyone else's exp.

Tank Ya!! ;)

Usually the good sifu won't teach you weapons until you go throuh the chi sau stages. Weapons are extensions of the hands. If your hands are not good, then your weapons will be no good.
