Is Shaolin-Do for real?

Then why pay the money to learn something that is going to be taught in class? Waste of hard earned money in my oppinion.

The answer was in the post.......PLEASE learn to read....most of the seminar material you will not see for years, it's upper level only....some will never get that high and they might want to learn the form just like you want to learn Tai Chi

Yes I saw that the answer was in your post, I can read. It was more of a rhetorical question than anything. Kinda expensive for someone who isn't a life member just to learn a form for fun when its going to be taught in class.

Me wanting to learn tai chi is a little different......if John Dufresne were still here in Lexington (and not in China) he would teach it (tai chi) to me either for free or for a very small price. I guess you could say I was a life member. But because he is not here anymore I can't learn from him except for when he comes back to visit with us students and ex-wife & kids (maybe 2 times a year). All learning from Dufresne right now is more philosophical talk and talk about fight scenerios right now via the internet and e-mail.

When I say training from Dufresne right now is talk about fight scenerios I mean like I will ask questions of what should be done in this situation or what technique would be best in that situation etc...

No. I was going to go but the only reason was to meet Baqua and he was not going to be there so I decided not to. Was a fun time?

I remember. Are you still working with KBs? You should go to Master Dave's site and check out the video from the Atlanta Certification he and I attended. The cert is from Steve Cotter's International Kettlebell and Fitness Federation. It was an incredible weekend and I learned a lot!

still working some with kbs but kind of on a little different focus at the current time. but it all seems to hurt (in a good way)

That's one of my favorite things about KBs. You can use them in many different ways to achieve different goals. I always have an assortment of minor aches and creaks when I train as well. I've increased the amount of my stretching, joint mobility, and Qi Gong exercises. This has helped reduce my creakiness quite a bit. Keep moving. If we stop we might not be able to get started again. Besides, pain is weakness leaving the body right?

[shen ku]

than i must have alot of weakness,

well i won't be at anything this weekend, i just had a death in the family so all you SD guys enjoy everything for me ,
