    Thread derail? Pfffft! That train left the tracks long ago. Instead of all the discussion of areas that have nothing to do with the traditional, highly respected and venerable CMA of Shaolin Do, how about we restrict our comments to the matters of SKT and SD in here and start new threads for the cerebral discussions elsewhere?

    Does anyone have any video of Sin The doing material pre 1980? I wonder if his form was as sloppy as it is now.

    Purposefuly antagonism = non-sucking people skills?

    Syn7, you seem like a smart guy and a lot of what you say makes sense, but intentional, premeditated departures from common courtesy don't make them any less departures. In the stictly legal sense, a smart intentional ******* is more culpable than a dumb *******.

    Just sayin'

    Okay, you got me on a technicality. I will dig that thing up and see what I can do. Don't hold it against me if I am unable to make it work. It was originally a 8mm film and I do not know if I ever converted it to a DVD.

    Not my version. Before I teach the handful of techniques against it, I teach the most effective. I mime handing the person my wallet and running away. Absolute nasty stuff that even the most solid lineage can't protect you 100% from. If they need more convincing I have told some students to google knife fight photos.

    I am curious about this as well. I have done 1 full round and 2 half rounds of classic. (Half rounds because daily 3 hour commutes got in the way) Also did you use real weights or just the bands?

    I did skip on the kenpo disc, I was rolling my eyes through the whole thing. I did the Cardio X disc instead and supplemented my normal form practice.

    The Yoga X disc felt like it was 14 hours long. (I have the attention span of a gnat at times) But my body did feel good when I finished.
